Dear List,
I've discovered orgmode only several weeks ago and this was a great
day. So this is my first post and I want to thank you all making this
free software!
Now I have several org files and I sometimes want to attach date or
datetime properties to a headline. So I type C-c C-x p and answer the
minibuffer. For a date/time value I'd like to use the nice input method
(I think provided by `org-read-date') but I cannot figure out how to
enable it when adding properties this way. Is this possible or should I
add the PROPERTIES drawer first and then use C-c ! to add date value?
Also, how can I instruct org to update the date value of a property?
(If I hit C-c C-c inside the property drawer the property action menu
appears.)
kind regards
Eike

It works for me over here:
,----
| C-c C-x p mydate RET C-c !
`----
and calendar window opens ...
PS
Org-mode version beta_8.3 (beta_8.3-21-g815c21 @

Aahhh.. I knew I'm missing something obvious. I just wasn't brave enough
to simply try those key strokes from within the minibuffer... silly
me. It also works here, of course.
Thank you
Eike
