Archived trees are kept closed by the function `org-cycle-hide-archived-subtrees', which is called by `org-cycle-hook'. You could define a tag of your choice and then put a function into org-cycle-hook that uses a let form to bind `org-archive-tag' to the chosen tag and then calls `org-cycle-hide-archived-subtrees' to do the work. Hope this gets you on the path. - Carsten

Or do (setq org-archive-tag KEEPCLOSED) :-) The side effect of this is that stuff in these trees ill never contribute t the agenda - but if it is setup stuff, you probably do not care These solutions will work if the subtree does not contain stuff relevant for agendas. - Carsten [1] The book of knowledge defines Zen as: Zen emphasizes experiential wisdom in the attainment of enlightenment.

These solutions will work if the subtree does not contain stuff relevant for agendas. It can contain agenda stuff, so that solution maybe zen'ish but not working for me. If you saw my code and find something wrong please help along!

Thanks a lot! That works like a charm although I considering simply choose to retrain my brain to use ARCHIVE. :) -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
