Windows Live Photo Gallery - People Tag vs Traditional Tag

by rpwoodjr Jul 20, 2010 11:01PM PDT

I just started using Windows Live Photo Gallery (Beta?) and tagged about 400 photos using the person (people) tag. For photos without people in them or photos with people that I don't want to identify, I used the traditional tag. So now I have a mixed bag. When I view the gallery by person, I get a lot of "not tagged" photos when, in reality, I have them tagged the way I want them. Same thing when I view by the traditional tag. If I had it to do over again, I would have just stuck with the traditional tag and listed the people there.

Is there a batch way of copying the person tag values to the traditional tag so that I have one set of tags and can arrange / view the photos by the traditional tag and have it all covered?
