    Hi,
    To start with let me thank you for this wonderful, feaure-rich program.
    I have the following question about overdue reminders. I have set a note with
    a reminder to appear "every month" on the 10th of the month. The program
    settings are set to track overdue reminders. Now, after the 10th of the month
    I keep getting an overdue reminder on PC startup, which is fair enough. How do
    I set the particular note as "done" on or after the 10th of the current month)
    so that the overdue reminder will stop, and at the same time expect the
    reminder to come up again on the 10th day of the following month?

    Open note's schedule dialog and check "Do not track the note if it is overdue"

    Hi,

    I've just tried this, it doesn't seem to work, it stays untracked permanently.

    To put the problem another way, how do you set it up as tracked, then when you
    mark it "done", it automatically becomes untracked until the next trigger,
    which automatically sets it to tracked again?

    I'm stuck at the moment!

    Best wishes.

    You cannot be "a bit pregnant".
    Note is either tracked or not. Next time the trigger will alert it will be
    removed from overdue list.

    Many thanks for your answer.
    Unfortunately I must abandon PNotes.

    I've discovered that "Stickies" does what I want.
    Their name for it is "sleep" mode.
