Outlook 2000 Journal

[Guest]

I'm trying to change the "entry type" portion of the journal.

So far I have gone into the Registry and tried to enter new "Entry Type"
subjects.

I highlight (click on journaling) and left button click and select new "key"

I enter the name I wish to call this new entry

I left button click my new entry and select "string value"

Double click this entry and enter my new value as prompted

The entry looks good to this point, however I don't know what to do next. I
was led to believe that was all I needed to do to get a new "Entry Type"
entered into the current list. My new entry appears ok in the registry but
does not appear in my Outlook Journal. What are my next steps?????

Ben Schorr explains all the details at http://www.inquiry.com/techtips/exo_pro/10min/10min0999.asp. Have you restarted Outlook since you made the change?

Yes I restarted/rebooted after inputting the entries.
My entry remains in the registry, however it does not show up in the Entry
type listing when Outlook is restarted.

at this spot-
string value #1- replace with "Description" and value as the actual
description again.
