I'm using a BLOCKED tag now. I'm thinking I'll go with a BLOCKED property followed by the list of blockers. I'll probably use links there, but I'll have to find a way to make that less fragile with the dynamic portions of the heading. I wasn't looking for any automatic state changes myself, so that would pretty much cover it. I'll probably be able to make a dynamic block that will generate a table with the tasks sorted parent first or sorted by which task is blocking the most other tasks, if I care enough. I can't say I have any plans to use triggers, but will they really hurt anything? I mean if it makes the code a mess then that wouldn't be good. But frankly, I have no need for the GTD 'find a stuck project' stuff, and it hasn't been a problem for me. Edd
