| The name of the task that this task depends on. These are the dependee tasks.
Their start and finish dates are not affected by dependencies added to another task
but their start and finish dates determine the start and finish dates for the
dependent task. |

top-level tasks. Second-level tasks have one decimal, third level tasks have two
decimals and so on. |

- Finish-To-Start. The selected task cannot start until this one finishes. This is the default task dependency.
- Start-To-Finish. The selected task cannot finish until this task starts.
- Finish-To-Finish. The selected task cannot finish until this task finishes.
- Start-To-Start. The selected task cannot start until this task starts.
