Hi Peter, Sorry for the late reply. I was under the impression that google would send out an email if someone replies to my post. I tried the application you recommended and it appears to be working perfectly so far. Thank you!
I understand that the use of two databases isn't recommended but I have no choice because of the following reasons: 1. I have divided my cards into multiple categories and my currently active cards are spread out. So its not easy to switch them on and off despite the flexibility offered by Mnemosyne. 2. I have a huge backlog of scheduled cards. So Mnemosyne's inability to include unmemorized cards in daily circulation forces me to use a separate smaller DB for such cards. I hope you will address this deficiency in the coming release. Thank you again for your wonderful software and your assistance. Regards Faisal.
