Steve: I was about to write an answer to John, but you seem to have covered it 
very nicely.

Just one comment, if the tasks you want in a particular view are all in a 
single project or folder and you zoom in to that project or folder,  I don't 
think you need the filter on ProjectName. The advantages of eliminating the 
filter (and just using Zoom) are (1) it's a little simpler to set up, and (2) 
less chance of enciuntering the disappearing task Veran reported. Is there an 
advantage of the filter that I'm missing?
