Last year, I made a subtree that was a project for getting ready for winter (I live in Minnesota, which has harsh winters). I worked my way through that list, and now I'd like to do the whole thing over again. So I'd like to copy the subtree (this I believe I can easily do), and then clear it. That is, I'd like to reset all the TODOs from DONE to TODO, and clear all the check boxes. This seems like a really odd thing to do, so there probably isn't automation for it, but before I go groveling over it by hand, I thought I'd ask. thanks! R
