Hi Detlef,

`ignore-errors' is defined in cl-macs in Emacs 22.  You need to  
compile the .el file
to get this macro.  Alternatively, define it in your .emacs file  
before loading org-mode stuff:

(defmacro ignore-errors (&rest body)
   "Execute BODY; if an error occurs, return nil.
Otherwise, return result of last form in BODY."
   `(condition-case nil (progn ,@body) (error nil)))

HTH
