For this case I would use: SCHEDULED: <2013-02-09 Sat> It seems I don’t get the point because when a TODO with repeater SCHEDULED: <2013-02-01 Fri +1w -3d> is set to DONE the delay remains and this way also here I would not use a delay but: SCHEDULED: <2013-02-04 Mon +1w> The usefulness of a SCHEDULED delay I see together with a TODO and repeater to implement an _exception_ (to simplify: exception just for the first date, before the repetitions). For example SCHEDULED: <2013-02-01 Fri +1w -3d> would mean: Usually start working on the entry earliest on the first day of the month except [2013-02-01 Fri] when work can not start before [2013-02-04 Mon]. It would start to show in the agenda on [2013-02-04 Mon], [2013-03-01 Fri], [2013-04-01 Mon], [2013-05-01 Wed], [2013-06-01 Sat] etc. On let’s say [2013-02-05 Tue] it would be set to DONE and would change to: SCHEDULED: <2013-03-01 Fri +1w> Note the automatically removed delay. Am I missing something? Michael
