Repeating tasks. I have some things which I do every Sunday. Is there a way to prevent them from showing until the day they are due? Thanks.

Have you tried setting the start date?

Thanks for the answers. I made sure the start date was included, but I guess I need to set a filter to exclude stuff in the future. I need to figure out how to do that.

There are a few ways of doing this. One is as follows:
I have my own Hotlist in my Saved Searches, and the filters allow only Next Actions whose Due Date or Start Date are before tomorrow (actually, the real one is a bit more complicated, but this part is all that's needed for this discussion.) So my repeating tasks don't show until they are due today or due to start by today. Of course, I have to go through everything in my Weekly Review and keep my Next Actions tasks current to make this happen with one-time tasks, but my repeating tasks, which have no Start Date, pop up on my list on their Due Date with no help from me after I set them up this way.
