Hi Richard,

yes, now it is clearer.

Org is not equipped to handle such a case, and frankly I am
not sure if there is much to gain.  You still need a time stamp
for each realization to attach the subject.  So you
can make separate entries just as well.

The only annoying thing is that you need to create those entries
all at once, instead of doing it as you go.

A good way to create the entries would be a keyboard macro.
If you insert the following text

** Pub Quizz
*** Pub Quizz <2008-03-25 21:30>

And leave the cursor at the end of the second line,
you can go like this:

C-x (           ; start macro recording
C-SPC           ; set the mark
C-a             ; go to beginning of line
M-w             ; copy
C-e             ; end of line
RET             ; new line
C-y             ; yank
C-u 7 S-right   ; shift date by 7 days
C-x )           ; end recording

Then you do

C-u 2 6 C-x e

And you got your 26 entries for the next 6 months.

Hi Carsten,

I will try to clarify.

I have a repeat task. Normally, for me, a repeat task will be for a "job of work" to do at repeated intervals. It however is not the same job of
work. e.g

Every monday at 9am a status meeting. Or in my example ever tuesday a
pub quiz.

I want to be able to annotate each meeting separately so I see the weeks
specifics in the agenda.

e.g

1st April ** Pub Quiz <2008-03-25 21:30 +1w> This subject
8th April ** Pub Quiz <2008-03-25 21:30 +1w> Another subject

It could just be being too lazy but I would like the repeat task so that an agenda for 6 months time has the Pub Quiz entry, but it probably wont
have a specific "subject" in this example.

I did try to add another active date to the original but that didnt work
e.g

<2008-04-08 Tue> subject1
<2008-04-12 Tue> subject2


I hope that is a little clearer,

rgds,

r.

Is there a facility to "unlink" a repeated item from its "repeat"
parent
e.g suppose I have

** Pub Quiz <2008-03-25 21:30 +1w>

But open it on April 1st from the agenda for that week.

In any particular one week I would like to add a certain tag or
note to
the task for that week only.

With no direct solution/answer to this, could someone possibly
suggest another
approach?

I think there was no answer because your question is not clear. I for
one don't
understand what exactly you want to do, and why you think it is not
working.
An entry like the above entry will show up in every week after the
initial date,
and you are free to add notes any way you like, at any time.

So obviously I am missing something here.
