Brian & whpalmer4,
Thanks for the quick replies, this is what I love about an active community; they actually have usable forums.

Brian, I've only got about two weeks (with to many late nights) digging into OF and setting it up. My database mind wants there to be a way to add additional view filter lines that can be additive or subtractive to the query, but I may just be over thinking it.


whpalmer4, Maybe I have been missing something but it seems when I select "flagged" and select "next action" I will only get the flagged items that are actually next actions but I want a list that has flagged items that may or may not be next actions and next actions even if they are not flagged. I need to have it be an "OR" statement so that I get both.

Here is one scenario that I encounter. I have a parallel project where I want to see (in my custom perspective) the next action but also an action item or two that is further down the list which I have flagged (working ahead a little). This doesn't work because the only actions you get (when you have "next action" and "flagged" selected in views) are next AND flagged actions. If they are single actions not part of a project those will show up as many as you have flagged.

I understand that I probably need to just set up a couple of different perspective, but I keep wanting to build a perspective like a database report.

Thanks for all your insights.
