[Orgmode] Re: Q: How to search dates within current week

[Kwee Heong TAn]

Hi,

Problem : search for CLOSED items in current week

It turns out that Orgmode has the functionality all along but being a newbie,
I did not ask the right question. Bernt Hansen's suggestion to use Timeline 
with C-u l provided the clue.

When I view the weekly agenda ( C-c a a ), I get a list of scheduled items. 
Press "l" to turn on logbook mode and presto!, I get a list of items closed for 
the same week.
I can change the time period with d,w,m,y to get daily, weekly, monthly or 
yearly view. To see the entire file, I switch to Timeline, and then turn on 
logbook mode.

In summary, logbook mode off always shows scheduled items while logbook mode on 
always shows closed times. The time frame being displayed depends on whether 
you are viewing daily, monthly, yearly or timeline.

The other neat thing is that when you press <left> or <right> to shift the date 
window, the logbook mode shows the closed items for the correct time frame.

Happy Thanksgiving!
