Hello all,
I'm stuck with a weird issue:
When I tried to invoke any agenda view, e.g. C-c a a, I get the
following message in the minibuffer:
non-existing agenda file h:/org/career.org [R]emove from list or
[A]bort?
I type "R" to remove it, get my agenda view, and then I switch the
buffer to Career.org and hit C-[ and get "file added to front of agenda
list", but when I try C-c a a again, I get the message above about the
non-existing agenda file.
What's going on here?
Thanks and Cheers
Markus

I assume you're on MS Windows here... what is the value of
org-agenda-files after you add the file? is case (Career versus
career) an issue? You say "I switch the buffer to Career.org"; have
you actually saved the file?
Sorry if I can't be of more help.

Err, how do I check the value of org-agenda-files?
Wow, this just makes me realize how much of a newbie I still am ...
Thanks for everyone's patience!

Hi Markus,
Try C-h v org-agenda-files RET. The mnemonic is Help Variables.

So I checked, and org-agenda-files contains the correct capitalization.
After repeatedly getting stuck in the add-remove cycle (hitting "R"
followed by the same message, about 5 or 6 times), I am happy to
report that everything is back to working, and I will attribute this
event to me being a noob.
Sorry for the noise.
@Eric: Yes, the file was saved.
