This may be a stretch, in fact I am quite sure it is.  I am surprized that I have never seen a reference to EDB (Emacs Data Base) on the list, or elsewhere, with reference to org-mode.  I had an elaborate scheme at one time to keep my addresses in EDB, and output templates to set up a latex letter, with multiple recipients if so desired, and of course multiple letters.  <br>

<br>I&#39;m not sure how, but it occurs to me that org mode and EDB have some common threads of this kind.  I have tried to implement an address book/contact system using properties, but it was very clumsy, at least in the way I did it.<br>

<br>Has anyone done ANYTHING interesting using EDB with org-mode?<br><br clear="all">Alan Davis<br><br>You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world,  but when you&#39;re finished, you&#39;ll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird...
