statistics nil) and change the keyword on heading 1.2.1. However, in my actual file, those lower headings are dates for journal entries. I don't want to put keywords on those. i.e.

* Head 1 [66%]
** DONE Head 1.1
** DONE Head 1.2
*** 2010/08/25 11:28:12 (11:28:12 AM)
Some log entry and notes. Putting a keyword on this entries heading is a waste, yet Head 1
doesn't provide the correct DONE total.

Any other ideas?

Hi,

It probably goes up one level, sees not statistics cookie to update and
quits looking. You can update the statistics cookie on Head 1 with
C-c #
