Can someone with Outlook access NewsGroups the way someone with Outlook
Express can?  I know someone who would especially like to connect with the
Publisher NG.   If the answer is yes, could you tell me how she can go about
that (so that I can tell her) ?  Thanks.

Yes, but Outlook doesn't really have a newsreader it really uses Outlook
Express (it kinda just a shortcut)...so, IMO you might as well just use
Outlook Express.

Sorry to seem dumb (I'm not familiar with Outlook), but how would she open
(or get to) Outlook Express then?
Also, I don't recall how I actually signed up for Publisher myself, how
should I tell her to go about doing that?

Go here
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.publisher

This will setup the Microsoft newsgroup in your newsreader.

That doesn't want to open.  Should it start with news://  ?

Open Outlook Express
Tools | Accounts | News (tab) then the Add button
go through the wizard - when you get to  the newserver name put in:
msnews.microsoft.com
when you're done it will search and load all the newsgroups - it will take a
while!
then you can search for the ng you want.
