I have posted this to 4 Outlook newsgroups for advice and tips after
searching Google thoroughly without much luck, so I apologise if its been
asked before.

I have recently started using Outlook 2003, migrating from OE and want to be
able to have a shortcut to the standalone OE Newsreader so I can access the
window from within Outlook when its running.

I have put the /outnews switch on my shortcut to OE so it starts when I
launch the shortcut but I want to be able to launch it from within Outlook
rather than going to my shortcut on the desktop.

I have no Goto > Newsgroups in the View menu which is where I think it
should be.

Can anyone help in configuring Outlook 2003 in getting it launch the OE
Newsreader?

Thanks,

Carl
