Actually what you describe _is_ the expected order for the 8.3 files. > In fact, this one aspect of 8.3 has kept me at 8.2. I do not understand the > need for such an abitrary restriction. So this constraint on the order should not hold you back to move on to 8.3. I can report that in my personal org practice this constraint never got in my way. Further I can't imagine a use case when the user can benefit of a SCHEDULE line below a property drawer, but this might be a bit personal. I can say nothing about the technical view of having that constraint. Best regards, -- Marco Wahl GPG: 0x49010A040A3AE6F2
