That's a good idea Jocelyn and you understood exactly what I was trying to
do. Thanks alot!
I added the /newsonly switch to the end of the line in the Target field in
my shortcut,
"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /newsonly
However OE still opens up looking the same as it did before. Should it look
different or perhaps only show the newsgroups listed under the folders on
the left sidesuch as msnews.microsoft.com?
