Why does (org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (time-up))) have no effect in a tags-todo search? Question #1 has a stupid answer. I had forgotten to remove another setq for org-agenda-custom commands later in my .emacs -- so this one is solved now. Question #2 is open.

Everything is working except the sorting: (org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(time-up)) is so far not having any effect. The TODOs appear in the order of appearance in the file. > > > > I need time stamp order to see at a glance what I need to do today vs tomorrow, etc. > > > > ("2" "Spring semester TODOs" tags-todo "-Wk11plugs-Wk11Docs" > > ((org-agenda-files > > '("~/Documents/xinghai/11-12-spring/semester-spr.org")) > > (org-agenda-sorting-strategy > > '(time-up)))) James -- James Harkins /// dewdrop world jamshark70@dewdrop-world.net http://www.dewdrop-world.net "Come said the Muse, Sing me a song no poet has yet chanted, Sing me the universal." -- Whitman blog: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/words audio clips: http://www.dewdrop-world.net/audio more audio: http://soundcloud.com/dewdrop_world/tracks
