That's all I need to see that I must stick with my antiquated system of: 
 
-Current pix on local HDD 
- keyword them with Photo Mechanic (embedded in file - no sidecar) 
- transfer to external drive 
- ingest into Media Pro for archival catalog 
- copy to offsite external drive for safety 
- keep catalog file on Dropbox so it can be searched from desktop or laptop 
- keep my sanity which doesn't understand why iphoto, aperture and LR need their own catalogs 
 
 
 
hope you solve this - you're a better man than I am

Well Robert's experience cost him two hrs, but the simplicity of the workflow might save you more than that a week Tom?
