Follow these steps to add an additional entry to the dropdown list for Entry Type. The example we will use is adding “MSN Session”:

1.         Open the Registry Editor. (Choose Start, Run; enter regedit; and click OK.)

2.         Open the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Outlook\Journaling.

3.         Right-click Journaling and choose New, Key:

4.         Rename the key based on what the new entry type will be. In this case we will name it “MSN Session”.

5.         Right-click the key you just created and choose New, String Value:

6.         Rename the string value Description. Double-click the Description key you’ve just created, and set its Value data field to the text you want to appear in the Entry Types drop-down list, such as MSN Session.

7.         Click on OK. Close the Registry Editor.
