I'm using a normal org-file as my contact register so I easier can link
tasks to a specific person. I have also added events as birthdays to
each contact but is there some way I can make them show up in the agenda
with some yearly calculations?
For example a simple birthday reminder can look like this:
* <2006-12-30 ++1y> Happy Birthday!
Is there some clever way I can add a date calculation to it when it
shows up in the agenda?
* <2006-12-30 ++1y> Happy Birthday %d years!
Regards,
You can use diary sexps. Search the manual for "Diary-style sexp
entries". As an example I have:
%%(diary-anniversary 3 1 2000) Ella is %d years old
in one of my org files.
