This is probably an easy one to answer, but I can't even think of
how to query google with it. And I can't see how to do it in the org
manual either!
But, how do you stop a "done", or "cancelled" item from appearing in
the agenda view please? Is there some code that will auto-magically
do it for me please?
Thanks
Sharon.

hmm... should be the default:
,---------------------------------------------------------------------
| C-c a t (org-todo-list)
| Show the global TODO list. This collects the TODO items from all
| agenda files (see Agenda Views) into a single buffer. By
| default, this lists items with a state the is not a DONE state.
`---------------------------------------------------------------------
There are:
,----------------------------
| C-h v org-not-done-keywords
`----------------------------
and
,------------------------
| C-h v org-done-keywords
`------------------------
which are probably nil in your case.

Yes, they are.

Set org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-done to t perhaps? And similarly
for org-agenda-skip-deadline-if-done. Not sure whether that will do
anything for CANCELLED though.
BTW, the search I did was within emacs (much more likely to be on
point than a Google search):
C-h v org-agenda--done TAB TAB ...
or when I'm really vague about what I'm looking for
C-h v org-agenda- TAB
I then C-x o to the completion buffer and just use normal emacs
commands to look around.

Assuming that CANCELLED is a DONE state - see
(info "(org) workflow states")
for details - the above should work for CANCELLED as well. E.g.
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TODO: TODO | DONE CANCELLED
* TODO foo
SCHEDULED: <2014-06-09 Mon>
* DONE bar
SCHEDULED: <2014-06-09 Mon>
* CANCELLED baz
SCHEDULED: <2014-06-09 Mon>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
then the agenda shows all three if org-agenda-skip-scheduled-if-done is
nil, but shows only `foo' if it is set to t.
As a more general question, should the default be t for all three of the
org-agenda-skip-*-if-done variables? It seems that most people prefer
that behaviour. Perhaps we have gone around this before, but I didn't
check the archives.
