How can I import photos to a specific catalog but that catalog will have to be in a external drive (HD)? I do not import to my internal HD because it doesn't have more space?

Thank you.

    You can create a new catalog by going to File->New Catalog and then in the dialog that appears browse to the external hard drive where you want the catalog to be saved and create the catalog on that external hard drive. Or, if you want to move an existing catalog to the external hard drive you can do that and then double-click on it in its new location and it will open it from the external hard drive and will remember that location. Then all you have to do is remember to import images and make sure they are imported to the external hard drive or another external hard drive.
