Eric,

Many thanks for the links!

I'm trying out OrgMode-ODS, so far it is not working. The following
error message may be related:

ServerError: <class 'xml.parsers.expat.ExpatError'>: not well-formed
(invalid token): line 1, column 62

But I'm not sure, as I also see a problem in Agenda view. Note the
middle  line below:

Friday      9 January 2009
  projects:   13:14...... DONE Page layout
Saturday   10 January 2009

Perhaps I've entered some data wrong or something. I've planned several
year in detail, so there is lots of data. 

When I try to view past weeks in Agenda view, I get this:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Before first headline at position
3361 in buffer anniversaries.org")
  signal(error ("Before first headline at position 3361 in buffer
anniversaries.org"))
  error("Before first headline at position %d in buffer %s" 3361
#<buffer anniversaries.org>)
  byte-code("ÀÁ`p#‡" [error "Before first headline at position %d in
buffer %s"] 4)
  org-back-to-heading(t)
  org-get-todo-state()
  byte-code("Æ \x10Ç•Sbˆ`\x11ÈÉ!ˆ	`{\x12ÊË!ƒ#

There is more to the above quote, but everything past the byte code
didn't paste.

Here is the line in question from the anniversary file:

%%(diary-anniversary 06 25 1993) Tryphena & Kristian married %d years
ago.

Help from anyone will be appreciated!
