To insert a link into a diary record that executes code instead of jumping to a marker, use the tag <execute expression="Code to execute">Text</execute>

When adding multiple diary records, be aware that they appear in reverse order. ie the first one you add will appear last and the last one you add will be first.

To add an entry under the 'Briefing' subject, which is available by default, use "Diary" as the subject.
