For the new question: C-h f org-time-stamp should sort you out. Two other things: 1) Please reply to the list by default, not to me personally. (`Reply to All' should be an option in your mail client.) 2) Unless someone leaps into to tell me that I'm wrong about the emacs-orgmode list culture, please don't top post. Best, Brian vdB
