Hi Carl,

I'm pretty new, too. But, for an event such as a meeting, have you 
tried not scheduling it, but instead simply marking it with an active 
timestamp? Try something like this:

* Events

** Meeting with with Pat about foos and bars
   <2007-09-09 10:30-12:00>

*** TODO Prepare notes on foos and bars for meeting with Pat
    SCHEDULED: <2007-09-04 Thu> DEADLINE: <2007-09-08 Mon -2d>


HTH,
