I'm trying to set up repeating events to stop repeating after a given date. In this case it's classes I'm taking this semester that need to repeat once a week so I enter them like: *** Programming Workshop <2012-01-24 Tue 13:30-14:50 +1w>, <2012-01-20 Fri 13:30-14:50 +1w> The agenda shows the class being scheduled each tuesday and friday but I would like to tell it to stop repeating at the end of the semester. I didn't see anything helpful here: http://orgmode.org/manual/Repeated-tasks.html#Repeated-tasks The options I see here are using C-c C-x c to make a bunch of duplicate entries (which seems a little messy to me, but perhaps this is just how it's done) or simply marking the item as DONE at the end of the semester. The latter option seems a little weird to me too since it would make my agenda for the following semester cluttered if I was looking at it to plan future events. Is there an option I'm overlooking? Thank you, Peace ~Sam --90e6ba6137084201b804b6570719 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum for this question.
