The way in which activities are displayed in the grid depends upon which types of activities they were assigned. Your administrator defines Activity types via Settings > Labels and Lists. All activities assigned as tasks (such as an SOQ activity) or that span multiple days are listed at the top of the Activities grid and a dividing line separates these from all other activities. Typically, these task activities show no date unless a task has a reminder. In addition, activities that span multiple days are displayed separately for each day of the time span and these appear with no start time at the top of the list.
