In PSE 5, is there a way to tag multiple photos (with the same tag, of course) at once?

I’ve been dragging the tag to individual photos, but that becomes a drag (pun intended). I’d like to be able to apply the same tag to multiple photos at once if that’s possible.

For example, if I take 100 photos of a particular location, I’d like to be able to drag the location name tag to all 100 photos at once, rather than drag it to individual photos 100 times.

Thanks!

Yes. Just select the 100 photos and drag the tag icon to any one of them. It will tag them all.

Yes do as Don suggests. If they are not consecutive you can hold down the CTRL key and click them individually then drag across the tag to anyone of the selected pictures and it will tag them all.
