In Outlook, Can I get the "News" button to reappear?

I moved to "News'' button to "Go" and it appeared underneath the "go"
column, then while I was setting up the Internet New Server Name , I receive
a message stating that no such name existed, and ever since then the "News"
button has dissappeared and I am not able to set up any Newsgroups.

This is from Outlook 2003 help:

1.. On the Standard toolbar, click the Toolbar Options arrow .
2.. Point to Add or Remove Buttons, and then click Customize.
3.. Click the Commands tab.
4.. In the Categories list, click Go.
5.. In the Commands list, click News, and drag it, without releasing the
mouse, until it rests over the Go menu. When the menu displays a list of
commands, point to where you want the command to appear, and then release
the mouse.
1.. Click the Go menu, and then click News
One of those things that once you've done it, it's done so you forget how to
do it again! I had to look it up myself.

This question has been asked and answered tens of thousands of times and a
very quick Google search of this newsgroup would have found the answer for
you in less time than it took to type the question in the first place.

Open Internet Explorer and click Tools>Internet Options>Programs. Put
"Outlook Express" in the Newsgroups box. Click OK. Start Outlook Express.
If it asks you if you want to make it the default mail and news client,
clear the "Always perform this check" box and click "No." Close Outlook
Express. You'll now be able to add the News button back to the Go menu.
