Re: [O] entering a date through C-c ! or C-c . in "edit" mode of column view does not work

Hi Jean,

With a column like this one:

  #+COLUMNS:%30ITEM %TODO %PRIORITY %9SCHEDULED

you can do `C-c C-x C-c' to enter column mode and type `e' 
in the scheduled column to enter a date through the calendar.

This `e' command does not work for columns TIMESTAMP and 
TIMESTAMP_IA because the (inactive) timestamps don't have
a definite place to be put on -- they can be anywhere in
the headline or in the subtree. 

I suggest you use a SCHEDULED or a DEADLINE column, depending
on your need.

HTH,

would you please 
1. specify Org-version and Emacs version
2. send us a file as a minimal example of the file you're working on and
   a description of what you're trying to achieve.

cheers,

Perhaps you should have a property :Date: [2011-06-14 mar] then you
could modify its value with "e" in column view

I get the message: "C-c ! is undefined"

Actually, I need to record a date for each item, and I would like to  
enter the date using the column mode.  Any idea on how to do it?
