That's pretty much what I want. But if I do that I then have trouble with getting sensible clock tables. For example, suppose I had: *** Headline about some activity on Project A CLOCK: [from]--[to] => duration notes notes notes *** Headline about some activity on Project B CLOCK: [from]--[to] => duration more notes notes note *** Headline about some other activity on Project A CLOCK: [from]--[to] => duration yet more notes notes Adding those as a chronological journal lets me get a report of chronology, but it won't let me have a clock table with the times for the two "on Project A" activities combined into one. Will it? Of course I could shove the Project A activities under one single higher-level headline, but that than violates the chronology side of things (in the sense that I want to enter things into my journal in chronological order, just as I would in a paper log book). > You can create clock tables and select reported items by tags.

I'll have a look at the manual. thanks, Tommy
