These type of repetitions are common for organization in this area and I would like to avoid having to enter in each date separately Thank you, Will On Fri, Jan 15, 2010 at 4:30 PM, Glauber Alex Dias Prado wrote: > William Halliburton writes: > > > Hello all, please excuse me if this is a FAQ, I can't seem to find any > > discussion on it. > kind of > > > > How can one enter in repeating dates such as > > > > every third thursday of each month > > > > http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/org/Repeating-items.html#Repeating-items > http://orgmode.org/manual/Repeated-tasks.html#Repeated-tasks > > > or > > > > the first and third wendsdays of each month > > > > ? > > > > Thank you very much. > > Will > > _______________________________________________ > > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode > > --000feaf3224f8b67e1047d3d2a95 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I've seen that page but I do not believe it covers the type of repetiti= on that I am interested in.

For instance, if I have an e= vent like

"every third=A0Monday=A0of each mon= th"=A0

my first thought would be=A0

&= lt;2010-01-18 Mon +1m>=A0

but that repeats on t= he February 18, =A0which is a=A0Thursday.

These ty= pe of repetitions are common for organization in this area and I would like= to avoid having to enter in each date=A0separately

Thank you,
