Deleting the journal items is only good. it doesn't delete anything
related. Just saves a lot of space. When I discovered the journal
at work years ago, there were thousands of entries and it took
Outlook half an hour to clear them out. Whew! then all was well.

Do you, or anyone else on the list know if deleting the data in the journal
will cause the corresponding items in other Outlook folders to be deleted as
well?
In other words, if I delete the journal items, will messages in folders such
as my sent folder, inbox, and saved folders be deleted too, or are the
functions totally independent?
If I'm not clear on my question here, please let me know, and thanks to
everyone for all the attention you are giving my issue.
It is very much appreciated.

Found this from a Google search. Hope it helps. Might depend on which
Windows version you're using.
A. The Journal function in Outlook can be used to track document changes and
openings, mail actions, meetings and task management however it can take up
a large amount of space if not archived regularly.
If you don't want the features of the Journal it can be disabled as follows:
1.Start Outlook
2.Select Options from the Tools menu
3.Select the Preferences tab and click 'Journal Options'
4.Unselect all boxes and click OK
Click here to view image
5.Click OK to the main dialog
No records will be written to the journal now.
If you want to delete all current Journal information select the Journal
branch, right click on each entry type, for example Microsoft Word, and
select Delete from the context menu.
This is also possible by directly editing the registry:
1.Start the registry editor (regedit.exe) 2.Move to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Outlook\Options\Journal
3.Double click EnableJournal and change from 1 to 0 4.Click OK

Ann:
How exactly do you turn the journal item off?
I'll give it a try once I know the steps to disable it.

Be sure that the journal item is not turned on. that one just grows and
grows, with Outlook automatically making an entry every time you do
anything.
