FREE JOURNAL ANALYSIS UTILITY

Maximum Availability recently announced the availability of its freeware 
Journal Analysis Utility. The utility uses a GUI interface that lets you 
perform the following tasks:

* Extract, print, and save journal receiver information
* View detailed journal receiver information
* Assess the volume of journal changes by individual file
* Ascertain the types of journal entries being generated

You can download the utility from http://www.maxava.com/.
