What I'd like to archive is that an unavailable task is not shown when I do an agenda search for all tasks for example. I do not want the task to show up on my daily agenda when it becomes available. When the start date arrived the agenda search for all tasks should show the task. Is this possible? Thanks for your help! Regards! Karl
