 org-agenda-span - also make sure to get rid of any settings of
 the obsolete variable org-agenda-ndays. The default is week however,

Hi Nick,

I was being dense. I wasnt seeing the TODOs per se, but the creation of
them! (I tag all items with a created date so they appear in a journal
and I easily track creation of all org items). So yes, the span is the
correct variable that I had previously thought not working...

cheers
