Is there any way to do what I want? No, because you are mixing to different things: lists and TODO items. TODO items start with "*". You can convert * TODO item 1 * TODO item 2 to a list by selecting the region they are in, then doing C-u C-c - You can convert a list to TODO items with C-u C-c * Best, -- Bastien
