Thanks for answer. I already got another answer from stackoverflow, where I ask exactly the same question, is here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20164918/how-to-untick-checkboxes-in-org-mode-for-the-next-cyclic-repetitive-task But basically the solution it was include this: :PROPERTIES: :RESET_CHECK_BOXES: t :END: and of course (require 'org-checklist) should be included in .emacs configuration file. Again, thanks for the answer. Regards, Borja Tarraso 2013/11/16 Borja Tarraso > Hi, > > I am working with cyclic or repetitive tasks in org-mode, inside this > task, I have several checkboxes.
