      Hello and thank you for the Tabbles :)<br>I have one issue, namely I want to tag my files on my external hard disk and to be able to use the same DB on my two different Pcs for the same external hard disk. I have installed two verssions of Tabbles on two PCs but I didnt come up with any idea how I can do it.<br>Thank you in advance for your replay!<br>

      1. install sql server on only one pc.
      2. install tabbles client on both pcs.
      3. configure sql server to accept connections from both pcs.
      4. make sure you can login to tabbles from both pcs with the same tabbles user.
      5. attach the external hard disk to pc #1 (with drive letter, say, G:\).
      6. from pc #1, tag a file in the external hard disk with tabble “test”. Suppose its path is G:\foo.pdf.
      7. detach the external hard disk from pc #1 and attach it to pc#2, with letter, say, H:\
      8. log in to tabbles from pc2, open tabble “test”.
      9. you will see the file from the external hard disk. its path will be H:\foo.pdf.
      10. if you double click the file, it opens normally.
