So it seems to me you are going to have one of these sexps after each and every entry (and you may have to add an "Anniversary" property as well and search for that in addition to "Birthday"). But then why would you need an automatic way to fill in the name? You can just add a person-specific string to each person-specific diary sexp and be done with it. For example, --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- * John :PROPERTIES: :Name: John :Birthday: (5 4 1900) :END: %%(apply 'diary-anniversary (read (org-entry-get nil "Birthday"))) John * Jane :PROPERTIES: :Name: Jane :Birthday: (5 4 1901) :END: %%(apply 'diary-anniversary (read (org-entry-get nil "Birthday"))) Jane --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- Nick PS. BTW, I believe the %% has to be flush left: you cannot indent it. At least the manual says so. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
