Oops - I deleted News from my toolbars

[M Skabialka]

I just upgraded to Office 2003. I noticed that Go to News was not an option
in any of my Outlook 2003 toolbars. I found it under customize and dragged
it up onto the standard toolbar but when I clicked it, it didn't open
Outlook Express, but an explorer window. The only way I could get rid of it
was to drag it off the toolbar out of the Outlook Window. Then I tried to
find it under customize to put it in the right place, but I seem to have now
deleted it, it isn't available under any command lists. I tried a repair on
Office but this didn't put it back.

How do I restore News and get it in the Go Menu?

Thanks,
Mich

To get the News command back, go back to the Programs tab in Control Panel |
Internet Options and change the default newsreader to Outlook Express. If
OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch
it, clear the "Always perform this check..." box and then click the No
button.
