System? What is this system of which you speak? As a
result of various mishaps of late involving both computers and external
drives, I now have photos in multiple locations on at least 3 drives.
I love the mystery; every once in a while I come across another folder
and am surprised. It adds spice to a dull routine. Don On 3/5/10 8:20 AM, lookaround360@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: Thanks a lot Lea!

You can have many catalogs and ne'er the twain need meet. When you start a new catalog you want to be sure to place it in the external drive, too, rather than the default location which is usually your pictures folder. All that being said, I have multiple catalogs and wish I didn't. Your images may be more conducive to multiple catalogs than mine are, though. Lea winter. over it.

I want to store all new digital files in the LR cataloging and work flow scheme away from all previous digital image files. Is this a good idea or even possible?
