Bob, does this help?

Select Perspectives -> Completed items
Select View -> Grouping -> Completed

You now have a window showing all your completed actions, with the least recently completed items at the bottom. If you enter the name(s) of your single action list(s) into the toolbar search field, that'll hide the vast majority of the actions you want to leave in your database. (If you have a list with a short name like "health", it'll appear in the list.)

Still, it should be possible to do a good chunk of pruning in this view. Maybe save it as a perspective until we're able to implement the archive style that would work better for you?

I have about 50 SALs, so I'm just looking at them manually. What would help more would be to be able to sort by project/SAL.

Done. I'll see how this goes. Thanks again.
