I just did a clean org mode install (twice)

* Org-mode version 8.0.5 (release_8.0.5-318-gfdaa99 @ 
c:/cygwin/home/Charlie/elisp/Org-Mode/lisp/)
* emacs GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601) of 2012-08-28 on MARVIN

emacs on windows 7, home premium

I call the agenda dispatcher; however when I attempt to call an agenda 
command the following error is returned

Wrong type argument: sequencep, newline:

No issues here with 

Org-mode version 8.0.5 (release_8.0.5-318-gfdaa99 @ /home/noorul/.emacs.d/site-lisp/org-mode/lisp/)
GNU Emacs 24.3.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10)
 of 2013-03-11 on noman

Can you send a trace back?

Thanks and Regards

I ran M-x debug-on-entry for org-agenda-list and org-todo-list. Attached 
are the backtraces.

I think the attachment is not an error trace back. You need to do M-: (setq
debug-on-error t) and execute the command. You are supposed to get a
traceback. Please post the same.

It would also help if Charles ran uncompiled code - see the "How to
create a useful backtrace" subsection of section 1.4, "Feedback" in
the manual.

Thank you for your replies and guidance.

I suddenly realized that the :newline was part of my tag set-up in my 
init.el. I removed all references to newline and the agenda commands now 
work.

I now have to figure out why (:newline . nil) no longer works, at least 
for me. For the past two or three years I had my tag groups as
(setq org-tag-alist '(
	(:startgroup . nil) ("aaaa" . ?a) ("bbbb" . ?b) (:endgroup . nil) 
(:newline . nil)
	(:startgroup . nil) ("cccc" . ?c) ("dddd" . ?d) (:endgroup . nil)))

I'll check the mailing list etc. to see if I missed some discussion 
concerning this.

Charlie
