Vista and Outlook 07

[Peter Foldes]

I have a user with an issue with Outlook which I cannot answer since I do not have
Vista installed. In Outlook 2007 he cannot get the News button to show. Is it at all
possible with OL 07 in the Vista environment

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 or
Vista Mail. If prompted, 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.

Sorry Diane,I was aware of all that but I meant to say Outlook running under W7not
Vista. I have tried everything from installing WLM and other newsreaders and for the
life of me I cannot get this user with the above mentioned setup to have the news
button to show up in Outlook.

There isn't one here in Win 7 either. Looks like you can't do it...

I suspect that since Windows 7 has no integrated newsreader and since Outlook
doesn't allow changing the newsreader on Vista, that it won't be possible to
specify one in Windows 7.

That is what I found out after trying numerous newsreaders in W7 for this user
