And this date is neither the starting date nor is it a real deadline. Up to now I'm using the DEADLINE date for this purpose, but I don't like that solution, as it is confusing for me to know which deadlines are real "hard" deadlines (e.g. I have to send in my tax declaration until a certain date and not one day later) and those artificial ones, which not carved in stone. So is there an easy way (I don't know, how modular org-mode is set up) to add this 3rd TARGET date to org-mode? Martin
