Jason-

I decided to replace the default "*ActiveProjects*" section of the dashboard
you created and this satisfied my needs.

==========================================
*Removed the following section*:
<<mgtdList title:'Active Projects' startTag:Project tags:'Active &&
!Complete' view:ProjectArea mode:global
    newButtonTags:'Project Active'
    >>

*Added the following section*:
<<mgtdList title:'Subprojects' startTag:Project tags:'Project && !Complete'
view:Project mode:global
    where:tiddler.hasParent('Project')
    group:Project
    gView:bold
    newButtonTags:'Project Active'
    leftoverTitle:'(Projects that aren't subprojects)
    >>
==========================================

*Below is the reasoning behind the madness*
As a Network & System Administrator, I am constantly involved in both types
of projects.  This is the main reason, I started utilizing the
"SubProjects":

*Areas*
Server Operations
Network Operations
Support Operations
Infrastructure Operations

*Projects*
Server Project
Network Project
Infrastructure Project
Support Projects

*Sub Projects*
Server Project-Project A
Network Project-Project B
Infrastructure Project-Project C
Support Projects-Project D

Your dashboard modifications got me on the right track and now my dashboard
views are VERY effective.

Thanks,
Roy
