Thanks for the tip!

I sorta figure duplicate doesn't work for the same reason sorting doesn't work :-/

I'm sure Rob Trew has a script which will do this (basically, a check-in which generates a follow-up task in 1-2 week's time) but I'm not loaded with scripts and it sure would be easy and fast for me to just do this manually.

There just so much UI friction in OmniFocus sometimes. And don't get me started on the split view in a task on the iPhone, or I might never get stopped. Functionality is great, scalability is great, UI and usability are poor :-(
