Or can what you have in mind be > expressed by org-depend (see below)? Assuming you are referring to the second of my suggestions (linking across headlines). If so, I am not sure about org-depend as I have never used it. Does it allow linking across headlines or only within a sub-tree? In any case, it would be nice if the start time would be dependent on the end time of the "from" link, but only if a start time were not specified explicitly? thanks, eric -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.50.1, Org release_8.3beta-1231-ga0a883
