Hi Jean,

Thank you - however, I can't get this function to return anything.

org-scan-tags accepts an action, a matcher and a todo-only.

Code:

(org-scan-tags 'agenda ;; Action
                      '(staff lambda (todo tags-list level)  ;; Matcher
                               (progn
                                    (setq org-cached-props nil)
                                    (or (and (member staff tags-list)))))
;; End Matcher
                       org--matcher-tags-todo-only) ;; Todo-only

* To my knowledge, the 'agenda is the action, and the list starting with
`(staff <snip>) is the matcher.
* Why does the tag I'm searching for ("staff") appear as the first "atom"
in the
"matcher" parameter?  Why isn't it just a lambda?
* I don't quite understand what the "or" and "and" are doing.  It seems like
I don't need either of them.

My org-agenda-files contains files and I have a headline with the tag
"staff"
- no quotes, and the function's not returning anything.

Thanks,
--Nate
