Yup, the groups are called Categories. There are four basic: Albums, People, Places, Various. Can't make any more at this level, but can make as many underneath them as... well, haven't found a limit yet. And images may be in more than one Category or Sub-Category. Likewise, I find that helpful.
I haven't done much with the editing software part; as you know I prefer Photoshop. Well, it doesn't hurt that I could get it at a discount price. *G*
I think that work-around in Elements will keep away from the limits bug; I suspect (but am not positive) that each Catalog in Elements represents a new instance of the basic database. I'd already started working in that direction before it locked up on the first Catalog (the default) I'd started. What aggravated me is that there's no way to get back into that default Catalog. As you know, that represents a fair amount of work. Not the imagery part (that's unaffected), but the background info.
