In Outlook 2003, yesterday I customized the "Go" option
to list the "News" option to read newsgroups. I read
several groups, posted to one, and then shut down. This
morning when I rebooted and started Outlook 2003,
the "News" option was not there on the "Go" option, and
was not available to be added in again on the customize
toolbar options. I did a repair of Office 2003, no joy.
I then completely uninstalled Office 2003, and re-
installed Office 2003, and still there is no News
option. When I do a URL in Explorer, it tells
me "To read newsgroups, you must first install news
reading software and make sure it is set up correctly."
Any ideas? Yesterday it worked, and today it doesn't,
even after a full uninstall/install.
 
Does this fix it?

To get the News command back, go back to the Programs tab in Control Panel |
Internet Options and change the default newsreader to Outlook Express. If
OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch
it, click the "Don't ask me again" box and then click the No button.
You may need to reset the menu or toolbar using Tools, customize.
