It *should* be the case that you shouldn't have to delete the default: just select a date from the calendar or type +2 or type a date and it should take that. But in my (rather hastily done) experiment, it seemed to ignore any such and in fact, when I tried to reschedule again the bunch of things that it rescheduled for today, it would not even stop and let me enter anything. Seems like a bug to me. Nick
