Another option is to use a different keyword, for example "PROJECT", for things that have sub-TODOs, e.g. ,---- | * PROJECT start writing paper | ** TODO Collect data | ** TODO add references `---- For that to work you may want to put something like this at the top of the file: ,---- | #+TODO: TODO(t) PROJECT(p) | DONE(d@) CANCELLED(c@) `---- Finally, a third option is to add a TODO (or TOPLEVEL) *TAG* and do something like this at the top: ,---- | #+TAGS: { TOPLEVEL(t) SUBTASK(t) } `---- Then, you can do ,---- | * TODO start writing paper :TOPLEVEL: | ** TODO Collect data :SUBTASK: | ** TODO add references :SUBTASK: `---- You can filter for :TOPLEVEL: or :SUBTASK: from the agenda view. Of course, you don't need both and it may be easier to just add one or the other. Hope this helps! Stig
