I've been wanting this one for a while. Right now to "cancel" a task I have to choose between deleting it entirely and losing the details or marking it completed and making a note (e.g. in the description) that I "cancelled" the task.

This would be a really helpful feature, especially if there was also an option to move tasks between two .tsk files.
I use Task Coach for personal tasks & projects and also at work (both my day job and my part-time teaching job). All three files are synced via dropbox and I tried using a single task file with different high-level categories but this doesn't work well, particularly with reminders. When I'm at home working on personal stuff I don't want to see reminders for my day job (but I do want to see reminders related to the class I'm teaching), and when I'm at work I usually don't want to see personal reminders unless I'm working on personal things during my lunch break.
Now that multiple concurrent users is supported I was thinking about promoting use of Task Coach in my office for certain projects. If I get any buy-in for this we would *definitely* need to have separate files for different projects since we wouldn't want every Task Coach user in the office to have unrestricted access to everything. I'm concerned that the lack of built-in support for multiple files might be a deal-breaker since we wouldn't be getting any help from IT and I don't have time to be tech support for my office. (IT would just tell us to use MS Project and that's over-kill for our needs.)
I also use the Android version of Task Coach that is now available and that program's design also makes using multiple files a much better solution.
