How to list tasks and their completion dates?

How to list tasks and their completion dates?

First, let me pass on my thanks for org-mode.  It seems to be a great way to
manage tasks using Emacs.

How can I get a list of completed tasks and their completion dates?  I've
combed the Info docs and the web and could not find how to do it.  I would
like something like C-c a a l, but that only shows me the completed tasks
for each day.  Is there anyway to get a nice sorted list like:

CategoryA:   DONE   Add xyz to the fobnitz   <2008-06-10>
CategoryB:   DONE   Fix foo in bar program   <2008-06-12>

Any ideas?  I'm using Org-mode version 4.67c, which is included with GNU
Emacs 22.2.1.  Thanks very much.

Edi

Hi Edi,

there is no good way right not to make this list.

Set up column view with CLOSED.  May be llike so:

(setq org-columns-default-format "%65ITEM(Task) %CLOSED")

Then try `C-c a T', input `DONE' at the prompt.  It should
list DONE tasks.  Switch to column view with 'C-c C-x C-c'.
I think it kinda does what you want.

Thank YOU for the ever malleable Org.

Personally, I have come to believe that anything is possible with
Org and whatever can not be done (at present) can be
implemented/worked around.
