Hi
some times when I click the "news" button in outlook trying to start the outlook newsreader, the news reader does not pop up. Instead it opens a "1033" folder. In that case I had to start the news reader from outlook express. Can anyone explain why and how to fix it? thanks |

Go to the Programs tab in Control Panel | Internet Options and change the
default newsreader to Outlook Express. If you are prompted to set the default newsreader the next time you launch it, click the "Don't ask me again" box and then click the No button. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com "tree leafs" wrote in message ...

Outlook is not and never will be a newsreader. It calls Outlook Express when
you want a newsreader. So Diane already told you how to fix your problem. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "tree leafs" wrote in message ... thanks, But I do want to use outlook as my default newsreader.

Try it.
It will fix the problem. Outlook is not a newsreader and never will be - it calls OE. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com "tree leafs" wrote in message ... thanks, But I do want to use outlook as my default newsreader.
