Indeed, that was the purpose. I am the op and I apologise if my attempt to highlight my post caused confusion. Perhaps I stick to --8<---cut here---start->8--- M-x message-mark-inserted-region --8<---cut here---end--->8--- for highlighting. Best wishes.

There may be some fundamental misunderstanding here. What does orb-babel have to do with org mode and the Emacs diary integration? The Emacs diary & calendar (core Emacs features) allow for elisp sexps in the diary file and org-diary is an elisp function that returns information in the form that the diary understands. There is a section in the Emacs info manual on the Calendar and the Diary (section 31). Conversely, the org agenda can make use of Emacs diary expressions as well! But that's another story. -- : Eric S Fraga via Emacs 28.0.60, Org release_9.5-192-gd4e192 : Latest paper written in org: https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.05096

I'm guessing it outputs only specific items from the diary-file based on some variables? I tried to google this, but couldn't find anything (or maybe I'm speculating wrong).

I don't have a file name at the end because I want all my 5 agenda files searched. However, by entering each file in turn I can now identify the particular agenda file that's causing the warning. I don't see anything immediately wrong with it, but it contains multiple schedules with + and - days. I suspect the problems lies somewhere there. Thanks again - a great post that jogged my memory. Best wishes, Colin.
