September 2nd, 2009Problems fixed:
· After selecting an external object or image entry, selecting another entry causes an error.
· "Go to Random Entry" is only going to the first date of this or the last century.
· "Check for Update of The Journal" is trying to download the wrong version.
· Reminders with a specific time not being properly set to "missed".
· "Show Topic" command isn't showing on the toolbars after being put there when customizing the toolbars.
· Need better handling of corrupted entries and sanity checking of entry dates, especially during upgrade from TJ4.
· Image entries should skip redundant compression of compressed image formats (JPG, PNG and GIF).
· Top-level category tabs are displaying on a single line when arranged at the top.
· "Search Entries" isn't properly searching with a date range.
· "Font color" and "Highlight color" toolbar icons not correctly displaying their current color.
· "Check for Update of The Journal" needs a better Web page.
Updated user interface:
· Choose your favorite "skin" from the many, many available (170+).
· Quickly switch between logged in users and open Journal Volumes with their (optional) tabs.
Updated Journal Volumes:
· No more 2 GB limit. 128 GB is the new limit for a Journal Volume.
· Have as many Journal Volumes as you want, all open at the same time.
· Be more secure with the improved backup and restore features, with options to copy your backup file to separate locations automatically.
More category options:
· You can have categories that create new entries for you every century, decade, year, month, week, day, and hour.
· See a month or a year at a time with the new month and year calendar views.
· Use the day planner to see your reminders for today or the next week.
· Automatically "stamp" your entries with current date and time.
· Edit your entries with WYSIWYG (what-you-see-is-what-you-get) formatting.
More entry options:
· Your calendar category entries can have loose-leaf sub-entry "attachments".
· Drag and drop entries between categories with ease.
· Select multiple entries and copy (or cut) them to the Windows clipboard--then paste those entries into another category of The Journal or even into a word processor like MS Word.
· Insert media files (audio & video) into your entries, and play them back within The Journal.
· Take advantage of the new (optional) grammar checking features to automatically change i to I and automatically capitalize the first word of a sentence.
· Use topics to mark blocks of text within an entry, or to tag an entire entry.
· Be even more organized with topics that have sub-topics (that have sub-topics, that have sub-topics...).
More search options:
· Automatically include sub-topics when searching by topics.
· Search for multiple topics with either AND (all) or OR (any) logic.
· Search in reminder notes.
· Limit your search to whole words.
And more:
· Export your categories and entries to HTML and get a Web-page-like list of categories and entries.
· Create a wiki-like set of entries with automatically updated links.
· Run a report of those entries that you've created or updated in the last week, month, year or other date range.
· Post to Blogger (Google) without getting an annoying error message (and lots of other minor fixes and changes).
February 29th, 2008· Added support for cedilla (Ç, ç) in International Character hot-keys.
· Upgraded to latest DBISAM database software.
· Repair utility not handling the case of an interrupted database upgrade.
· Re-installing after the end of the trial period sometimes not seeing existing Journal Volume and not allowing a restore.
· Deleting a category sometimes causing an access violation.

· Upgrading from a The Journal 2.x database isn't deciphering all old entries properly, and can have problems creating the new Journal Volume properly on a USB installation.
