HelloI wish to manage multiple Projects at once within on datafile.It is possible to embed the concept of "a Project" into TDL, by which I mean:Is it possible to set up a task (i.e. a row) that can be treated as Project in the GTD method sense that:A) it contacts multiple Actions within it
ANDB) a view can be set up that only shows the first (one) Action for each "Project"
ALSOC) that there is a mechanism to show more than one Action per "Project" eitheri) globally (e.g. now only the first 3 tasks for all projects are visible ) ORii) individually (give the user the power to "force" additional individual Actions onto the "Next One Action for each Project" view
Many thanksJ

Hi John,
Unfortunately I can't give you the technical solution to your requirement. I only can give my 2 cents to the subject.
1. One of the concepts behind GTD is to identify the very next action on hand regarding a certain task that turns out to be a project in the GTD sense to make sure that on the todo/task/next action list there are only clearly defined pieces of work that can be done without further planning/thinking.
2. That does not necessarily mean that you're not "allowed" to identify more than one next action items for a project at the same time, specifically if they are not depending on each other, and put them onto your next action list.
3. To keep it simple, imagine your project is to replace your fridge and you would identify two very next actions. First, @home take the measurement of the space in the kitchen, and second @call sister to get contact details of her friend working at a store. Would you really want the @call task only show up when you've finished the @home task? Now let's have a look at tasks within the same context. Beside the context there is still to consider time, energy and priority. Would you really want to have - let's say - a 5min task of a certain project NOT show up on your @home list, as long as you haven't addressed - let's say - an 1h demanding, independent task of the very same project? I wouldn't.
That leaves me with the conclusion that the idea of seeing only one next action/task per project only would makes sense for depending tasks, and then only if there is a finish to start dependency!
How that translates into TDL code? Vver to the coding gurus... :)
