Outlook 2003
I am attempting to start the newsgroup reader per
directions listed below.

The first time you use the newsreader, you must add the
News command to the Go menu.
Add the News command to the Go menu.
How?
On the Standard toolbar (toolbar: A bar with buttons and
options that you use to carry out commands. To display a
toolbar, click Customize on the Tools menu, and then
click the Toolbars tab.), click the Toolbar Options
arrow . Point to Add or Remove Buttons, and then click
Customize. Click the Commands tab. In the Categories
list, click Go. In the Commands list, click News, and
drag it, without releasing the mouse, until it rests over
the Go menu. When the menu displays a list of commands,
point to where you want the command to appear, and then
release the mouse

Accomplished the above directions however, once I closed
and reopened Outlook the News option was missing from
under the go menu. In attempting to re-create the news
option under the go menu the real condusing issure is
this. Their is no News listed in the commands list. I
have gone through all the menus and reset to default with
no success. Any ideas suggestions would be appreciated
 
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, clear the "Always perform this check..." box and then click the No
button.
 
Thanks Russ,

Question though, I have explored the Control Panel in both classic and category modes and I am unable to locate the programs tab. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you,

Ken Nailon

Russ,
Followed your instructions, but News still does not appear in the Command
List. How do I get it back?

Thanks in advance.

The instructions work for most everyone else. I know of no other solutions.
These same instructions appear everywhere. Reread another version and try
again in case you were doing something wrong:
