I am able to post to newsgroups, but when I tried to Reply Group to a
message I posted (replying to myself) I got a dialog box with three buttons,
a check box, and an "I" icon. There is, however, no text in the dialog box,
on the checkbox or on the buttons!

Clicking any (or all) of the buttons has no apparent affect. The dialog only
goes away if I click the "X" in the corner and it never sends my reply.

I am using the newsreader built in to Outlook.

You're using Outlook Express, accessed from Outlook. I think it's the
initial warning that what you are posting will go to the group and might
take a few minutes to show up. If you check the box and press the first
button, does it post? If not, I think you probably need to reinstall OE -
see www.insideoe.com for assistance.

There is no newsreader built into Outlook. Outlook uses Outlook Express for
newsreading and, as such, you must ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup like
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
