Bernt Hansen's suggestion to use Timeline with C-u l provided the clue. When I view the weekly agenda ( C-c a a ), I get a list of scheduled items. Press "l" to turn on logbook mode and presto!, I get a list of items closed for the same week. I can change the time period with d,w,m,y to get daily, weekly, monthly or yearly view. To see the entire file, I switch to Timeline, and then turn on logbook mode. In summary, logbook mode off always shows scheduled items while logbook mode on always shows closed times. The time frame being displayed depends on whether you are viewing daily, monthly, yearly or timeline. The other neat thing is that when you press or to shift the date window, the logbook mode shows the closed items for the correct time frame. Happy Thanksgiving!
