Good morning, when adding cards by number, how do you add a card that has duplicates?

Ie: I have 3 of card #111, when I am adding cards by number I put the number 111 on three different rows but it only put one card into my collection. I can add extras by going to the dropdown but wondered if there was a way I missed to add duplicates while using the 'adding cards by number' feature. 

Great database by the way, 

Thank You

I do not see card #111 but there are cards with more then one.  #319 shows 5

add multiples, then select collection from drop down menu, then enter total #

If you're adding by card number, just enter each number once. Then, once you click the "Check" button, you will be taken to a page that shows "1" in the Quantity textboxes for each card number you entered. For any card that you have more than one of, change the number in the textbox next to that card number, then click the Add button.

Alternately, if you don't have that many copies but you have a lot of cards with duplicates, you can run through your stack one time for each copy. and add them in sequence using multiple "adds". I tried that when I entered my inventory, but found just changing the quantity as described above was more efficient.

Thanks for your reply, I have been adding bulk cards by number and then editing them prior to saving. I was wondering if there was a way to add multiple duplicate cards when I am adding the cards by number without the extra step of editing at the end?

Depending on how many different cards you have from a particular set, adding by number may not be the most efficient manner.
