I've followed the instructions to create my own agenda menus. Unfortunately, no matter what I do I can't get the program to sort by categories. Of course, maybe I'm not using categories right. What I have is the #+CATEGORY: mycat tag used throughout the file wherever I want to specify the category. The pertinent part of the elisp code I'm using is: ("d" "Daily Agenda" ( (agenda nil ((org-agenda-prefix-format "Daily2:" ) (org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(priority-down)) ) ) (tags "/DAILY|PENDING|TODO|COMP|HOME|ROAD" ((org-agenda-sorting-strategy '(category-down)) ) ) ) The "Daily2" part works, as well as the priority specifiers, and if I change "category-down" to "priority-down" or "tag-down" it works. But "category-down" doesn't seem to do anything, no matter how I try. Any help? Thanks, Mark Org-mode 4.78 Emacs 21.4.1
