@Teresa_H, like some of the others here, I use the flag primarily as a 'Today' marker, but I also make extensive use of start dates. Your system looks very functional to me, and I have a suggestion on a script that you might want to explore, if you haven't done so already.

Search in the Extras forum on the subject 'defer' for a couple of scripts that will allow you to select a task or a group of tasks and defer the start date by the number of days the user specifies. It's really nice to be able to bump the start date out without manually editing the dates for each task.
