Hi Steph: That helps a lot! I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't missing a simple 'Turn-On-Goals' checkbox somewhere. I'll look for your illustration. >From what I've read on this forum, it appears that MLO is very Feature / Automated-code rich! It doesn't sound like I will have to worry about 'Hitting the Wall' (finding out that it's too limited in features to be powerful), anytime soon. It seems like you can use as much or little of the automation as you like. Right now I'm easing into it, but I really like how the tree works for organizing and how the Time features can put deadline things 'In Your Face'. Thanks again, Thal...
