Thank you, Darlan =97 that is more or less what I thought. But here's = the thing (which betrays by rather shallow understanding of org-mode at = this point): I know how to create such a table. But what I don't know = is how to get the prompt to enter a new row. The notes function for = tasks that are marked done don't navigate you to a previously defined = block of text, if I'm not mistaken. So, there would be a lot of = hand-navigation to make each entry. Perhaps Im misunderstanding = something, but I am seeking the ease of use of the notes prompt, but = with each new entry being not a separate note, but a row in that table. = Thoughts? =97 Michael > At Mon, 5 Jul 2010 00:46:38 -0700, > Michael Gilbert wrote: >>=20 >> performed. >>=20 >> In general, I am trying to break my ties to a number of simpler >> data-logging tools (web apps, text files) and just centralize this = into >> Org-Mode where it belongs. >>=20 >> Any advice?
