Parent child relationship for lists in SharePoint

If you are looking for a project/child relationship for a Projects and Tasks list.  You can try using the
Budgeting and Tracking Multiple Projects Template which is part of the SharePoint "Fantastic 40" Site Templates. Basically this template allows you to track all your projects and tasks. When you view the project item, you also get a Related tasks, Related issues and Related milestones data views on the same page.Any tasks, issues or milestones you add on this page will be associated with that particular project and will rollup onto a nice looking dashboard.

Refer to the following URL to download the template.
