Hi Manish,

Thanks for the tip on loading the .emacs using M-x load-file (ENTER), 
after that I type "c:/emacs/.emacs" and the agenda command worked.

With regards to the environmental settings - we're doing it the same 
place - see attached screenshot.

With regards to my .emacs, its very empty - I attached it as well... I 
just created the .emacs file myself. Is there supposed to be something 
inside .emacs by default?

How do you think I should make the .emacs load by itself?

Thanks,


Bailey
