Hi Karl M,
I assume you have a few typos in the following description:

;; Keep tasks with scheduled dates in the future off the global todo lists
(setq org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled 'future)
; For tag searches ignore tasks with scheduled tasks too
(setq org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options t)
Schedule your task into the future. It should no longer show up in
global todo or tags searches until that date arrives - at which point it
will be in all lists.
There are similar settings for deadline and plain timestamps.
,----
| org-agenda-tags-todo-honor-ignore-options is a variable defined in `org-agenda.el'.
| Its value is t
|
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means honor todo-list ...ignore options also in tags-todo search.
| The variables
| `org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date',
| `org-agenda-todo-ignore-timestamp',
| `org-agenda-todo-ignore-scheduled',
| `org-agenda-todo-ignore-deadlines'
| make the global TODO list skip entries that have time stamps of certain
| kinds. If this option is set, the same options will also apply for the
| tags-todo search, which is the general tags/property matcher
| restricted to unfinished TODO entries only.
|
| You can customize this variable.

Regards,
Bernt
