Office Outlook 2003 Questions
Hi, I just loaded my Verizon DSL account on a XP sp2 Pro PC w/ MS Office
2003, sp2. I'm using Outlook (not OE) to send/receive email and I configured it to link to OE as a news reader. and added a "News" button to the Outlook toolbar. However, by mistake I didn't add the News button to the Outlook Go menu button I addded it to the Toolbar just to the left of ther Go Button. At first it worked great I'd just click on the News button and it brought to screenn the newsgroups I had subscribed to.now when I click on the News button it brings up an Explorer window that displays System files. How can I remove the News button from the Tool ar and add it to the Go Button on the Toolbar and how can I get it to display subscribed news groups instead of some System files? I now access newsgroups by manually opening OE the Outlook 2003 the News button was almost elegant when it worked. Thanks |

It's worse than I thought I just opened Outlook Express and see that it's still receiving email. I guess I should remove mail servers from OE mail configuration becaause Outlook is configured to receive my email? |

Yes, if you don't want to use OE to receive your mails you should remove the
accounts. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- "Mike" wrote in message news:C29Bh.7444$ov2.2966@trndny06...
