Agenda column view conflicts with diary inclusion


When I include diary entries in the agenda, I get the following error
while calling columns view in the agenda:

 org-entry-properties: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil

When I turn off diary inclusion by typing "D", the problem goes away.

Certainly, it is trivial to turn off diary inclusion before calling
columns view or to create a custom agenda command that does the same,
but I thought I'd report this behavior.

Thanks,
Matt

I can not duplicate this.  It works okay for me.

Hi Matt, how about a backtrace, and maybe you can try
to figure out which line in your diary file causes the problem?

Absolutely. I've put the results below, along with a sample diary file
I ran the test on and my configuration. I'm copying a backtrace for
the first time, so feel free to tell me if I've failed to include
something.

First, before I include the results, I believe I've identified the
culprit: it's the syntax for generic monthly events in the diary,
e.g.,

*/3 Monthly meeting

When I remove this line from the sample diary file, agenda column view
works fine. 

(By the way, this was the impetus I needed to switch all my
appointments to org-mode, since it's so nice to be able to add notes
to events in org-mode files.)

Best,
Matt
