Joseph, I'm sorry that you felt like I gave incomplete or misleading information about my knowledge of key pass. Yes I did say I stumbled across it, but I meant stumbled across it as a solution not it as a new program to me.
As you will see you later in my post, I obviously had some knowledge of the program when I described how I might use the various fields for journaling, rather than the password protection they were intended for. Again, your information provided has been most useful and certainly most appreciated. Please accept my apology for any misUnderstanding.

Had you mentioned you were already using it from the beginning, the type of information you would have received would have been more targeted, detailed, and relevant to what you wanted to do as well as saving listers time and preventing many unnecessary posts. I'm very happy you found a solution, but typing up this kind of information does take time and effort. Just wish you would have provided "all" information from the beginning. (Smile).

I use it both on my iPad devices and Windows PC. The additional operation I want is to be able to write a daily journal. Just a few paragraphs about what went on that day. Thus, I was thinking I could put the day/date in the entry field and notes in the notes field, leaving the username and password blank. I will try it for a little bit and certainly let you know how it goes. Thanks again for all of your suggestions and all the help everyone else has been, too.

What you want to do will be a bit cumbersome as you will have to execute many steps to review your information; let's not even get into entering new information. First you will have to install KeePass on your desktop computer as you cannot configure anything on MiniKeepass. Secondly, on your IOS device, depending on the structure of your KeePass file, you may have to execute many steps before accessing the information you would like to review. If you have the time and patience to repeat this process over and over, this can be a good solution, but I think after completing this process a few times you will slowly begin to stop using it as its just too much to have to navigate--especially in a noisy environment or in a situation where you need the information quickly such as talking to the bank teller or on the phone. MiniKeepass Pros: *you will have all of your passwords safely backed up in a good safe outside of your desktop. MiniKeepass Cons: *reviewing entries will take many key presses. *entering new data will become a headache. *manipulating MiniKeepass entries can become time consuming and a bit of a chore. *learning the desktop KeePass application will take a bit of time to learn and setup properly. with that said, and I'm conveying this information as my own experience which many be different for you, please feel free to contact me if you need any help setting this up, and I'll do my best!

I have a lot to research. In the meantime, I may have stumbled across my own solution. It is a password manager Raul recommended months ago called MiniKeePass. I think that I can simply enter the month as a general entry and day/date as the individual entry. Then skip the username and password field and use the notes field as the Journaling area. I haven't tested completely, but it looks like you can get quite a bit in there. I don't know what the restrictions might be. This would allow one to make entries or review them from either and I device or PC. Raul, if you read this and see any obvious restrictions, I would most appreciate it.
