I had never seen a shortcut to a Newsgroup message, before. I
duplicated what you did with a message from another newsgroup but had
to copy to Word and add News: to the front. Is there an easier way of
doing it?


It's an option in XNews and many other newsreaders.
AFAIK not in Outhouse, however.

Not really recommended, as some newsreaders, notably Outhouse, choke
on it - or it forces a "retrieve all message headers" command, which
on a dial-up, could take quite a while.


Thanks for pointing that out. I'll be changing the configuration.

FWIW,
