I'm switching over from OE to Outlook, am I going to be
able to use Outlook as my newsgroup reader as I did in OE?

Outlook uses OE as the newsreader.

Sorry, reading through the news groups (trying to learn) and saw this
post. Is there a way to configure my Outlook 2003 to access this news
group? I've always used my browser since I did not know this was possible.

Thanks in advance.

You need to configure OE to access it.

The newsgroup server is msnews.microsoft.com and you don't need a username
or password. If you only want to open OE with News (not mail) available you
can either create a shortcut using /newsonly or /outnews switches or add the
Go, News command to Outlook's toolbar. (See help for instructions.)
