Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode Hi all, I found the problem. I used org-agenda-directory instead of org-agenda-files. Not recognising that this variable doesn't seem to exist (did it ever exist?) I assumed I can use it to indicate the org files folder. With org-agenda-files everything works perfectly. I now have about 48 custom commands (partly of course hierarchical) and with dynamically changing the set of org files I really feel I have control over my todos! I am very happy with org! Thank you both! Rainer ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode
