Be careful when using the archive feature in OF that you really want to archive only by date. This method pulls out actions piecemeal from folders and groups so that you split out the records of past actions that would otherwise build a complete project.

Eventually, I would imagine, if you archive diligently, at some point in time, the archive will contain the entire record of actions for the project. It is only during the intermediate time (before the project is complete and while you are actively archiving tasks from it) that you might have to go back to the Archive to remember ... "oh yes, I really did do that task already".

A different approach is to create a folder, for example called Archives, mark the folder as Dropped (use control-click), and dump your completed projects in to it when they are done.
