I set everything up for newsgroup,but as soon as I hit "finish" it told me that it don't recognize the server. Tom
Ummm... then put in a valid server.
For this newsgroup (and the other microsoft.public groups) try
msnews.microsoft.com, no password.
You may want to repost your question with more details in a newsgroup
supporting your news reader. This group is for a different program, the
database software Microsoft Access.
