I am using the same setup (thanks Bernt :): - Initialize on Startup - Update on midnight for next day with run-at-time - Update frequently via org-finalize-agenda-hook The last piece eats up quite some time (couple of seconds on my ancient machine), so what about a different solution just for the last bit. E.g., updating, when an item gets scheduled/timestamped for today. Something like (pseudo code!): (defadvice org-schedule (after my-adv-update-appt activate) "org-agenda-to-appt when org-last-timestamp todayp" (when (= (time-to-days (org-time-string-to-time org-last-inserted-timestamp)) (org-today)) (message "Updating appt!") (org-agenda-to-appt))) (defadvice org-time-stamp (after my-adv-update-appt activate) "org-agenda-to-appt when org-last-timestamp todayp" (when (= (time-to-days (org-time-string-to-time org-last-inserted-timestamp)) (org-today)) (message "Updating appt!") (org-agenda-to-appt))) Would that work? I agree, calling it interactively feels error prone and I would probably forget it ... Memnon
