I am beginning to understand how to use scheduling.  However I ran across a
problem I didn't know how to solve: I know that in early March an event will
take place on a Friday, but I don't remember the date.

Can anyone make a suggestion how to handle this?

Thank you, again and again, for org-mode, the swiss-army-toolbox.

Well, while scheduling, a calendar gets popped up.  Use it! :-)

Also, if you type in both a date and a day of the week, you'll get the
first day after the specified date that falls on the specified day of
the week.

For example, if you Type in "Fri 2 Feb", you'll get the first Friday
on or after Feb. 2nd. Or something like that.
