So this is a persistent state of affairs? You restart emacs from scratch and it still does it? If that's the case, then one of your initialization files must have been modified - check modification dates, compare against backups - by hook or crook, find what changed. If that still does not produce results, you can bisect your way to the place where the problem appears: start emacs with the -q switch and load .emacs piecemeal: open the .emacs file in a buffer and evaluate it one s-expr at a time by placing the cursor after the closing paren of the s-expr and using C-x C-e (that is bound to eval-last-sexp). Or if you prefer bigger bites, mark a region and use M-x eval-region on it. Try the agenda commands that give you trouble after every evaluation. At the beginning, you are going to get errors, since org-mode will not even have been loaded. At some point, the agenda command is going to succeed and either behave properly or misbehave - but then you know which part of the initialization file is responsible and you can concentrate your efforts on that. You may also find that the problem arises when your .emacs loads another initialization file, in which case you go through the same process on that file. Eventually, you'll find the culprit. HTH, Nick PS. It might be a good idea to post a more detailed description of *exactly* what you are doing and what you see when the misbehavior occurs. Although I read the thread completely, I'm still not quite sure what exactly you are seeing - for example, could it be just the "note" behavior of the org-log-done variable? (C-h v org-log-done <RET> for details). Taking a screenshot of emacs and posting that might help as well. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
