Try restarting your emacs and if that doesn't fix it, upgrade org-mode and retest.

Hi Keith, Keith Lancaster klancaster1...@mac.com writes: (Newbie question again) I frequently have TODOs that span some amount of time while in the STARTED state. A simple example would be a phone call, where I try a few times to reach the person before being successful (I may change to the WAITING state for this...).

Thank you both for the quick responses. I'll look into both options. I'm certain people say this a great deal, but the depth/breadth of org- mode is just astounding.

[Orgmode] Re: Notes for a todos/tasks
You could also create a remember task/note with the details and then file it under your current clocking task (You are clocking your phone calls right? ;) ) If you start the clock on the phone call task then you can use C-M-r to start remember, pick your template (I have one for phone calls that inserts details of who it is based on bbdb information) then you can file it as a subtask of the currently clocked item with C-2 C-c C-c. So many options... so little time :) Pick whatever fits your work-flow the best -- or come up with something new! -Bernt Samuel Wales samolog...@gmail.com writes: For a look at some of the issues related to notes, contacts, conversations, etc., search for conversation manager and my name.
