Hello all,
please consider the following scenario:
I have a contract with Client A; the contract is valid from January 1,
2010 until March 31, 2010. I want to clock all my work on tasks under
this contract, and of course *only* while the contract is valid. 30
days before the expiry date, I'd like to get a reminder.
After some googling and reading, I came up with the following for my org
file Client.org:
* Contract A
<%%(diary-block 01 01 2010 03 31 2010)>
** TODO Renew Contract
DEADLINE: <2010-03-31 Wed>
** Task A
:LOGBOOK:
** Task B
:LOGBOOK:
I want to log the hours I spend on Task A and Task B, but as mentioned
before, *only* while the contract is valid. How can I get orgmode to
pop up a message in the status line (or whatever it's called :)) when
I'm trying to clock in Task A or Task B before January 1, 2010 or after
March 31, 2010?
Any hints appreciated :)
Thanks and Cheers
Markus
