I've tried [1] to modify Osamu's defadvice to do what you want. It almost does what you want, except that I have not been able to properly set the `org-map-continue-from' variable. ( May be someone else can help. ) With the present function, you have to run the `org-map-entries' function multiple times, until all your items have been archived. Hope this helps, Puneeth [1] - https://gist.github.com/836799 ps: Please CC the list also, when replying to this email. _______________________________________________ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
