Agenda View: Do not display items scheduled in the past

Agenda View: Do not display items scheduled in the past

[Friedericksen Hope]

Dear list,

I tried to solve this problem with the manual, but I was not very successfull. I have an org file with several items, nearly all with a timestamp. When I open the standard agenda with C-x a a I get a 
weekly view with a display of all scheduled items from the past (like missed items) in red below the todays appointment. (I hope you can understand).

The items scheduled in the past are displayed ion red with a number like "3x" saying that it was scheduled three days before.

How can I prevent orgmode from displaying these items? I only want to see items with a timestamp today (and, of course, deadline items in the next two weeks).

Thank you!

Best wishes,
Friedericksen

(setq org-scheduled-past-days 0)

Dear Matt,

thank you very much - this is exactly what I was looking for. And I found out something interesting. In the description this variable is associated with items, that are not marked done. But it 
displays also items which have no DONE/TODO marker. So "not done" means really NOT DONE and not only TODO-items. ;-)

Best wishes back,
Friedericksen

Your other option is don't use SCHEDULED: at all -- just use plain
timestamps with C-c .

These show up on the agenda only on the date they are for.

HTH,
Bernt
