Here are two pScripts (chains) each of which will transfer your memo  
to a DateBk note, in different ways.  You don't need to bother with  
pScriptButtons for these if you don't want to, you can run them from  
pedit the same way as you've been doing for the other pScripts.

{pDateMemoNote::
/xc Z
/xc C
/0x1C
/xEpmt g  MemoNote
/&control[@@note@@]
/&script$[@@pDM1@@]}
{pDM1::
/xc P
/&script$[@@pDM2@@]}
{pDM2::
/xEpet o}

This first one, {pDateMemoNote, will select all the text in your memo,  
copy it, open pDateTool, writes the title "MemoNote" as the DateBk  
item, pastes your memo into the note, and stops so you can select a  
date and time and then manually tap "Add New Item".  You can then jump  
to DateBk using the pDateTool menu item "Go To DateBook" (or just open  
DateBk with your DateBk button).  However, that will take you to  
today's date.  There is no way to jump directly to the entry you just  
made if it is on a different date than today.  I put the item line  
"MemoNote" in because pDateTool will not do the transfer to DateBk if  
the "add your DateBook item here" line is blank.

*******

{MemoToNote::
/xc Z
/xc C
/0x1C
/&script$[@@MTN1@@]}
{MTN1::
/&launch[@@DateBk6@@]
/xc N
/&control[@@No@@]
/&script$[@@MTN2@@]}
{MTN2::
/&script$[@@MTN3@@]}
{MTN3::
/xc A
/xc P}

The second one, {MemoToNote, will copy the memo, open DateBk, open a  
new DateBk untimed item on today's date, open a new note and paste  
your memo, and stop.  You will have to manually set the date and time,  
and whatever item name you want.

What I cannot do is make it so you can start in DateBk in a  
pre-existing item or note, jump to the correct memo, copy, and return  
to the correct DateBk item all automatically, as pedit and DateBk do  
not have this capability.

See if you like either one, and if there are any changes you'd like.
