Greetings I have been using BE for a couple months and like it.

One question I had. I do most of writing in theological and Biblical studies. So obviously my reference works are being entered as I use them. But I also do a lot of reading outside of that area. I have set up another database to handle general history, fiction, biography, etc.

Is this a good arrangement? Is is better to have everything in one database? I would have thousands of entries in the theological/Biblical database.

What if I get to a place where I need to reference one of the general history books for a quote, can I use two databases in the scan of the document (Mellel and NWP)?

Hi,

We recommend one database. You can use static and smart groups to segregate topics, if you like. You can only scan with one database at a time.

Thanks. So, I just import the data from the one? Is there something I should be aware of?

That's right. Or you can create a new empty db, then import the refs exported from the other two. That way if you want to return to two dbs you have them.
