I categorized my Tasks but found that I could no longer Move them Up\Down in a given Category. What is the trick to doing this? ("Clear Sorting" was grayed out inside each Category.)

I created several tasks and closed them. I found that the tasks were deleted from "VIP Team ToDo List", v 2.9.1.
How can I keep those closed tasks? (I often need to account for my time and destroying the completed Tasks destroys the very history I need to keep.)

Forum:Miscellaneous (VIP To Do List Line) Message:
I'm new to VIP To Do List and wonder if it has a "stopwatch" or time-tracker feature.
For example, suppose I start a Task today, work on it for 20 minutes, move on to another task, and then go back to the original task for another 30 minutes. Can VIP show that, today, I spent 50 (= 20 + 30) minutes on that task? And, if I spend an hour on that task the next day it should show 110 minutes (=60+50). The time will continue to accumulate until I press a Task "Reset timer" button.

Silly me, I just figured out you also have VIP Task Manager Professional edition as a client/server software that does a lot of the same things as VIP To Do List Organizer but for teams. Do you have a comparison chart of features? Is there an upgrade path from To Do List Organizer to VIP Task Manager Professional? Are the databases exchangeable?

I understand how to define the primary sort key for the task list display in VIP Organizer. Fine.
How do I define the secondary key, and the ternary key, etc?
For example, I would *really* like to be able to define a sort order as follows:
First, sort by priority (highest first).
Second, within each group of tasks of the same priority, sort according to the Status (in the order top to bottom: Created, Open, Waiting, Put on hold, cancelled, closed).
Third, within each group of tasks that share the same priority and status, sort according to "time left", with the least time left being shown at the top of this group.
Fourth: I don't care about the fourth filter, but it would be great it one could define the ranking for all aspects. For example, a useful fourth-level filter might be "Estimate time" (short ones on top in order to get rid of them)
Is there a way to do this?
Otherwise, would you folks please consider this for a future (not-too-distant) release?

Evaluating VIP Organizer and found a few small shortcomings. For the record, and in the hope of support from other users - and the makers of this tool:
i. it would be great (but not essential), if the Organizer supported customizable work flows
ii. it would be great if the Organizer supported file attachments (actual attachments, not references via URL) to tasks
iii. it would be a huge productivity and usability improvement if the Organizer supported creating tasks by dropping items into the Organizer: drop a word document for example, and a task gets created that takes its title from the document's title, and attaches the file. Drop any Outlook item (calendar item, task, email, contact, ...) and the "best fit" task gets created, etc. To me, task management is a multi-step process. The first, that of task creation, needs to happen very quickly when there is no time, and no immediate need, to refine that task straight-away. Main thing is that the "gosh this also needs doing" thought is captured.
iv. similar, and in addition to (iii), an optional shell context menu item (Create Organizer task from this...) would be nice (but not essential)
v. finally, the most unfortunate shortcoming of all: I find it essential that tasks can be related to each other, at least in a 1:1 basis, ideally in an N:M relationship. Tasks depend on each other, one task might gate another, two tasks together might gate a third, etc. This is an important reflection of what real-life tasks really are. I am surprised to find the tool doesn't support this, and can only hope that a future version might.
Anyways - it's actually a great tool, and I like using it already. I hope the above suggestions help making it even better.
