just fine.

I can still open all other types of entries in the Activities Tab -
like
Calendar appointments - by using a double-click. It's only Journal
entries
that will not open using double-click in the Activities Tab of
Contacts.

Any ideas on how to fix this back so a simple double-click
will open Journal items like it used to do?

When I go into the Journal itself, these Journal entries open just fine
-
double-click and all.

Yes, did detect and repair way back when. I also did a scandisk, and a full
defrag yesterday. I will try another detect and repair now - good idea. I
also had removed net folders capability which may have played a role ??? I
don't know. THANKS for a response! I'll post back after another detect and
repair.
