No that’s not the problem. I know about using quotes. Its when I forget about the parsing and MLO parses a task that I don’t want parsed. So for example, I have a meeting coming up that is on Friday and I want to create a task to remind myself to talk to somebody about the agenda for this meeting and I want to have that conversation later today.
So without thinking I type: “Talk to X about meeting on Friday” (without the quotes). MLO thinks that I don’t want to perform this task until Friday and assigns it a due date of Friday which promptly removes it from my To Do list (until Friday) which is not what I want because I want to talk to X today. And so when I look at my Inbox in the To Do view this important task is not there. So I want to be warned when an entry I have just made has been parsed so I can see whether MLO has made the right assumptions. Alternatively (and perhaps better), have two buttons on the Rapid Task Entry screen – one of which is “Add” (without parsing) and one of which is “Parse & Add” which I can use when I know that have entered a task which contains content which I want parsing.

Sounds like you just need to get the parsing right. Parsing works on reserved words/number/characters. Parsing will give unintended results if you use something reserved in your task caption. If you want to use a likely reserved word/number/character just enclose it in quotes and parsing will only take account of what is outside the quotes e.g. "Call Mike about party on June 16" tomorrow parses correctly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
