At the end of looking through my subscribed newsgroups, I like to go into
tools/options and delete all the cached messages. This is the function that
gives you the notice that says "Are you sure you want to delete all locally
cached messages from all folders". Is there any way to automate this
process, or put a button on the toolbar that will do this, so that I don't
have to go through the multiple steps via the tools/options?

What are you trying to accomplish?

If you just don't want to see those messages next time you visit the
newsgroup, Set View, Current View to Hide Read Messages, and then mark
all messages as read when you leave the newsgroup either automatically
(Tools, Options, Read) or manually.

If you are trying to keep disk space usage down, look at the options in
Tools, Options, Maintenance, when Compacting. Then do a File, Folder,
Compact.
