Adding Excel newsgroup to Outlook Express

[Guest]

How do I add this newsgroup to Outlook Express. I find it hard to work in
frame websites.

Hit the Newsgroups button or Tools-->Newsgroups, type
microsoft.public.excel.newusers into the "Display newsgroups that
contain..." box and hit Enter. Then select it and hit Subscribe.
