Associating tags to notecards
To associate a tag with a notecard as you create it, simply type the tag into the **Tags** field on the **New Notecard** screen (see the //Creating a notecard// section earlier in this chapter). If a tag already exists, it will be listed below the tag entry field in the **Existing Tags** dropdown list. To associate an existing tag with the notecard, simply select a tag from the dropdown list to add that tag to the text that is already typed in the tag field. If the tag has already been added to the notecard, it will not be added again.

You can always add or remove tags from a notecard later by editing the notecard and changing the tags in the **Edit Notecard** window. However, it is faster to add and remove tags using the **Tags** button on the **Notecards** screen. This feature also allows you to add or remove a tag from several notecards at once:

Adding or removing tags from one or more notecards → **Control-click** on the notecards you wish to add or remove the tag from. They will be highlighted yellow. → Click the **Tags** dropdown button at the top of the screen, select the “Tags” option to display the list of existing tags, mouse-over the tag that you wish to add or remove, and select **Apply** or **Remove** as shown:

 * Note**: Tags are not case-sensitive. Capitalization is ignored, so for example the tag “Washington DC” is equivalent to “washington dc”.
