Thanks for fixing this. Is this somehow possible with only one prompt: - to be prompted for the date of the event or the date and time / time range of the appointment. - the event/appointment to be recorded in a date tree under it's respective date, not under today. - having a timestamp in the resulting heading - to see the respective time (range) information in the agenda if there is any. I managed to to this without the date tree but with one level one heading for each entry. That's a bit more like Emacs diary, but I like the date tree because it's hides more information: (org-capture-templates (quote ( ("d" "diary the Org way" entry (file "~/org/diary.org") "* %? %^T %^g")))) Ciao, Gregor -- -... --- .-. . -.. ..--.. ...-.- P.S.: sorry to Bastien for first replying to him instead of the list: user input mistake.
