Subject: Clocking in emits an error
Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2012 01:57:22 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <loom.20120607T034125-332@post.gmane.org> (raw)

I have a plain list with checkboxes. I am trying to set a clock in time using
`C-c C-x C-i`. This emits this type of an error:

byte-code: Before first headline at position 30 in buffer TODO.org

Here is the text of my org file:

---START FILE---
- [ ] Clean upstairs windows
- [ ] Lunch with Taylor
---END FILE---

How do I get the clock to start timing?

I get a similar error when I use `C-c C-x e` to set a time estimate.

org-mode version: 7.8.09
emacs version: 24.0.92.1
MacOS X 10.7.4
