I am having problems with org-float and floating holidays, in particular the
holiday of Thanksgiving, as an example.
I have the following entry in my data file:
* Anniversaries and Holidays
#+CATEGORY: Holiday
%%(org-float t 4 4) Thanksgiving
I know that if I leave this in my file the agenda will show it every fourth
Thursday of every month.
How do I tell it that I only want it to happen in the month of November?
I tried to enter the month 11 after the last 4 so that it appears as:
%%(org-float t 4 4 11) Thanksgiving.
This did not give me a correct result either. I have reviewed the forums
and the org manual for the answer, but could not find it.
My Emacs version is 23.3.1 and my Org-Mode version is 7.7.
I hope that someone out there has the answer.
Thanking You In Advance,
John

You tried the 11 at the wrong position, try
%%(org-float 11 4 4) Thanksgiving
