Under Outlook 2003/tools/customize/command frame, "news" not avai.

[Michael]

Installed Outlook 2003 (Upgrade from Outlook Express) successfully

Followed instructions to install newsgroup:

tools/customize/command --> Pick "News" under "go" Drag and Drop under
toolbar "go"

Except, slipped while dragging and accidently dropped into toolbar (not
under "go"). Removed from toolbar. But "news" no longer available under "go"
command in customize frame

Tried many things including uninstalling and reinstalling Outlook 2003. In
all cases "news" option not available under the "go" command in the customize
frame.

Is there a way to fix this problem"?

If not, in this situation is there an alternate approach to install
newsgroups into Outlook 2003?

Thanks

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.
