I thought you meant you wanted the calendar agenda view limited
(day/week/month etc) which I don't know how to do other than by org file.

If your tasks are tagged you can get a tag match to show what you want -
but it won't be the day/week agenda.

C-a m
and enter WORK/NEXT

should show all WORK tagged todo items in a NEXT state.

I use that alot.  I have multiple 'work' org files (by client) and when
I'm at work 

    C-a a w 

searches @WORK/NEXT for me and I can pick from the available NEXT times
for what to work on.

I normally schedule high priority projects onto my daily agenda and work
on those first.  Then when there is nothing specific that I need to work
on I can view the NEXT todo lists and pick something.
