I am trying to add a few more tags to Hach WIMS, they use a tag ID # to grab the tag from the SQL database. How do I cross reference that ID to an actual tag name?

Reversing the id used in the `sqlt_data` tables involves reversing the lookup process completely, going from `sqlth_te` to `sqlth_scinfo` and `sqlth_drv`:

You'd need to look at the `sqlth_te` table and reference the `id` column. That table has a `tagPath` column that gives you the full path to the tag.
