Q1: How to gather list items or task items under the specific heading and display each DVIF in items as a table?

Answers: DQL10, DQL20, or DQL30


Q2: How to gather root list items or root task items under the specific heading?

Answers: DQL61, DQL63, or DQL65


Q3: How to distinguish list items from task items from the file.lists data?

Answers

  • How to distinguish list items from task items from the file.lists data?
    • a list item: !L.task
    • a task item: L.task
    • a root list item: !L.parent AND !L.task
    • a root task item: !L.parent AND L.task
    • L : each element of file.lists of each page
    • No one can distinguish a list item from a task item from the value of L.text where L is an element of file.lists .
