The #(...) is attempting to set a text property on the string "DELEGATED". Apparently nil is not valid in this location. See section 2.3.8.4 in the Elisp info document. Since nil probably means no property, you can just eliminate the #() syntax. Also, your parentheses don't match up; you need extra closing parens after some entries to make a well-formed list. You probably want to end up with something like this (not tested but at least it evaluates without error): (setq org-agenda-custom-commands '(("d" todo ("DELEGATED")) ("c" todo ("DONE|DEFERRED|CANCELLED")) ("w" todo ("WAITING")) ("W" agenda "" ((org-agenda-ndays 21))) ("A" agenda "" ((org-agenda-skip-function (lambda nil (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote notregexp) "\\=.*\\[#A\\]"))) (org-agenda-ndays 1) (org-agenda-overriding-header "Today's Priority #A tasks: "))) ("u" alltodo "" ((org-agenda-skip-function (lambda nil (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote scheduled) (quote deadline) (quote regexp) "<[^>\n]+>"))) (org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled TODO entries: "))))) > Many thanks, > Graham Chris _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Remember: use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
