"last timestamp" here refers to the date in previous item or last date class was held? > So essentially, have something like a spreadsheet formula embedded in the > timestamp.

The reference to spreadsheet like formula suggests that you want the date from previous item to be used to calculate the date for current item and a change in the former should cause an appropriate change on the latter. org-depend.el (in contrib/lisp) can be used to define the relationships but I don't know how you could link dates that way. Not very helpful. Sorry. -- Manish _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
