Hi Cesar

One way to combine several tasks is to create a summary task.

Above the list of tasks that you'd like to group together insert a new blank line and enter the name of the group or summary. Then select the tasks you'd like to include in this group and click on the indent button on the toolbar. The tasks will be indented slightly to the left and the summary task will be boldened.

Hope this helps - do let us know if you have any other questions.

Kind regards

Andrew
