Scheduling Delivery of Personal Journal

Personal Journal can be automatically delivered to your desktop, any time of the day, seven days a week. You can also schedule automatic printing and/or saving of your favorite Personal Journal sections. Personal Delivery ensures that you have the news you need, when you need it.

To create a Personal Delivery Schedule, select Personal Delivery from the Setup menu.

How Personal Delivery works:

Setting up your Personal Delivery Schedule is easy. All you have to do is place newspapers at any day/time on the grid to arrange a delivery. You can schedule up to four deliveries on any one day.

To schedule deliveries:

1.	Position the cursor on the newspaper pouch.

2.	Click on the pouch, hold the mouse button down, and drag a newspaper to the vertical bar representing the day of the week you would like a delivery.

3.	Slide the newspaper up or down to select the time for your delivery.

4.	Release the mouse button. A delivery is scheduled.

5.	Continue to click and drag newspapers to the appropriate times on the grid to establish a weekly delivery schedule that meets your personal needs.

There are two other ways to position scheduled deliveries. You can click Add and then drag the newspaper from its position to the desired time/day. Or, you can also double-click on one of the vertical day bars on the grid.

To have your Personal Journal delivered at the same time every weekday:

Set up your desired delivery schedule for Monday, then click Repeat. Your Monday schedule will be repeated Tuesday through Friday. Weekend deliveries must be scheduled separately.

To cancel scheduled deliveries:

Click and hold on the newspaper representing the delivery you wish to cancel. Drag it back to the pouch and release the mouse button. You can also double-click on the newspaper you wish to cancel. To clear the entire weeks schedule, click Clear All.

To print your scheduled deliveries:
Click on the Print Automatically box located on your Personal Delivery Schedule.

NOTE:  Personal Delivery will only print the sections of your Personal Journal you have pre-selected.  Check or specify these sections by selecting Print under the File menu.  Indicate the selections you want to print using the Print dialog box.  For more information on printing and printing options, see Printing Personal Journal Information

To save your scheduled deliveries to a disk file:
Click on the Save Automatically box located on your Personal Delivery Schedule.

NOTE:  Personal Delivery will only save the sections of your Personal Journal you have pre-selected.  Check or specify these sections by selecting Save As under the File menu.  Indicate the selections you want to save using the Save As dialog box.  For more information on saving and saving options, see Saving Personal Journal Information

Automatic printing/saving of updated daily editions:

All pre-selected sections will be printed/saved after your first delivery of the day.  Additional daily deliveries will print/save only those pre-selected sections that contain news or information that has been updated since your most recent edition.  This prevents the printing/saving of duplicate news and information.

Click OK to confirm your Personal Delivery Schedule.

To activate or de-activate Personal Delivery:

Select Personal Delivery On from the Setup menu to activate Personal Delivery. To de-activate, select Personal Delivery Off from the Setup menu.

Some important points regarding Personal Delivery:

•	For scheduled deliveries to occur, you must have your PC on and your Personal Journal application must be running (full screen or minimized).

•	Because Personal Journal uses the time/day of your PC to schedule your deliveries, please make sure it is accurate. The current time/day of your PC is displayed in the lower left corner of the Personal Delivery Schedule.

•	Scheduled deliveries take place during 15-minute intervals, and will arrive no later than the selected time. So when you schedule a delivery for 9:00 a.m., delivery will actually take place sometime between 8:45 a.m. and 9:00 a.m., but not later than 9:00 a.m.

•	While you can schedule up to four editions per day, subscription packages vary and updated editions may cost extra. Please check your records to confirm the number of daily editions included in your Personal Journal subscription plan.

For assistance in setting up your Personal Delivery Schedule, call Customer Service at 1-800-203-0706.

Introduction to Personal Journal

Welcome to Personal Journal, the only newspaper in the world published for a circulation of one.

Personal Journal combines summaries of the top business and world-wide news highlights from the day's paper with Wall Street Journal stories that match your areas of personal interest.

Also included in each edition of Personal Journal: custom stock and mutual-fund quotes, sports, weather and market updates.

The first time you request Personal Journal each business day, you're brought to the Front Page, where you receive The Wall Street Journal's What's News-Business & Finance and What's News-World-Wide summaries. You also receive any stories from today's Wall Street Journal that match your Personal News profile. When you request additional updates on that same business day, you are brought directly to This Just In, where you'll receive late-breaking news. Your Personal Portfolio also includes the latest stock and mutual-fund quotes.

The current version of your customized Personal Journal stays on your PC until you replace it with an updated delivery.

Before you can request your first delivery, you must do the following:

1.	Read and accept the Customer Agreement.

2.	Set up your Personal News profile and Personal Portfolio to track the news on the companies and columns of your choice plus monitor the stocks and mutual funds of your choice. This process takes just a few minutes.

3.	Enter information about your modem as well as your password to connect to Personal Journal.

Personal News, Personal Portfolio and Connection are all menu items under the Setup menu. You may also select Setup Assistant, if you need guided assistance with your Setup.

Note:  The first time you enter Personal Journal, you're guided through each step of Setup by the Setup Assistant. If, at any point in the future, you would like to make changes to your Setup and need this additional assistance, select Setup Assistant from the Setup menu.

For more information or assistance, call Customer Service at 1-800-203-0706.

The graph at the top of the page shows the Dow Jones Industrial Average for the past 30 business days. This average, commonly used as an indicator of U.S. stock market health, is based on the stock prices of 30 major industrial companies.

The lower section of the page includes updated figures for other market indexes. Included are:

•	The Dow Jones Industrial Average: Today's value of the index described above.

•	S&P 500: Composed of 500 stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq National Market System. It's a market value-weighted index, meaning that each company's influence on the index's performance is directly proportional to its market value. The companies included are chosen by Standard & Poor's.

•	Nasdaq Composite: A market value-weighted index that measures all Nasdaq domestic and non-U.S. based common stocks listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market.  The Composite index includes more than 4,900 companies.

•	Nikkei 225: An unweighted average of 225 stocks traded on the Tokyo exchange, published by the Japanese newspaper Nihon Keizai Shimbun.

•	FT-SE 100: A market-capitalization weighted index administered by the FT-SE Actuaries U.K. indexes committee. Composed of the 100 largest U.K. registered companies as measured by market value.

•	DAX: The Deutsche Aktien Index, comprising 30 selected German blue-chip companies based on a combination of market capitalization and active trading value. It is market-capitalization weighted and formally administered by the Frankfurt stock exchange.

•	DJ World Stock Index: A comprehensive measure of stock performance world-wide, composed of 2,200 companies organized into 120 industry groups.

Each index value includes:

•	Previous Close: Closing price of the index on the previous trading day.

•	Last: This value indicates the most recent trading price during market hours. After a particular index has stopped trading for the day, this value represents the closing price of the day, while the closing price from the previous day is shown under Previous Close.

•	Change: This value indicates the change in an index's value. If the index has risen, a plus sign appears; if it has fallen, a minus sign is shown. UNCH appears if the difference between the values is unchanged.
