fwiw... I don't use auto-archive either. Don't need to, because: -
1. MLO, even after a number of years of accumulating many tasks, still hasn't slowed down. 2. My filtering needs are met by Outline>Hide completed tasks>Hide completed tasks older than (or an advanced filtered view if something more sophisticated is needed) 3. It's useful to be able to search a complete history of completed tasks. 4. I use a separate data file for Projects where I never hide completed. As said before, true projects, as opposed to simple tasks with subtasks, usually need full and detailed visibility of what's been completed. The nomenclature and functionality of auto-archive is almost certainly a legacy of the days when MLO was first developed to sync with Outlook. Unfortunately, MLO is littered with such "ghosts of the past" which might give an incoherent impression to a newcomer. It's great to have so much flexibility but it can be a mixed blessing sometimes. I often think, with more mature software, the way to avoid bloat is a one-in one-out policy. Might be an interesting twist for User Voice i.e. vote for the least used functionality - it would provoke some debate I'm sure! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
