help me get my head around how linking tickets in RT 2
works.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>We appear to
have kinds of links:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>*
Parent/Child</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>* Depends
On/Depended On</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>I wouldn't have

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>What I would like to
know about each link type is:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>Does this link type
cause a change in how a ticket acts (eg, do any special constraints or side
effects closing a ticket apply as a result of this link) ?
How?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=636424621-28022002>I got the impression
that it is possible to tie Actions to link types. I'm really fuzzy on how
this would work. Is this how particular behaviours are associated with a link
type?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
