Yes, I'm already doing that and all of them work. But, that's not my issue ... I can add the "+1m" (or whatever) in a newly created "capture" buffer *after* I type the date/time, task description, and <ENTER>. But how to do this sooner? I'd like to enter something like "Jan 7 +1y" in the mini-buffer while creating the new item. Maybe there is a way to do this, but I don't know how! ;-) Sorry if this is still unclear ... hard to describe ... Thanks for your comments, -Kenneth
