What exactly is not working? The main problem with ../../Plans/etc is
that it's a relative pathname: *it depends on your current working
directory (CWD)*, so whether the agenda files can be found will depend
on what your CWD is - a rather undesirable state of affairs.
If you want to *initialize* the agenda files list, you can do something
like this in your .emacs:
(setq org-agenda-files (mapcar (function expand-file-name) (list
"../../Plans/PhD.org" etc)))
expand-file-name will convert the relative path names to absolute path names,
so they can be found later on no matter what your CWD is.
Does this help?
