Re: [MLO] Re: View showing Next Action with Project, sorted by Comp Score ... SUCCESS !

[MLO] Windows MLO: Columns in my Views keep reverting - bug ?

[MLO] Suggestion: New Group (or new forum) for MLO new users?

Hello It is clear that new users and long-time users have very different requirements. I think it's important for the long-time users of MLO to have a place where they can have in depth, carefully considered conversation, normally having read the relevant parts of the manual about the extremel
