Carsten,
Thanks. The quoting was the problem. I changed the line from what
I had below to:
c:\emacs-22.3\bin\emacs.exe -batch -l ~/_emacs_org -eval \
"(org-batch-agenda \"S\")"
and it now works like I expect.
Perhaps there should be somewhere to deal with some of these platform
specific issues so we don't run into them multiple times...

I guess this would be a good FAQ entry. Would you like to write one?

Carsten,
I'll give it a try. Mannish already pointed me to Worg. I installed
git and am trying to get started but am running into a problem with
even using git to get editable files. It seems I need access to
ssh-keygen which I don't have (being on Windows...)
I'll keep trying (in my spare time) to get this set up.
