Summary: Not Compatible with Vista!
Comment: Despite what all the information claims, this program is not fully functional with Windows Vista. If you go to the company's website, they admit this right away and tell you only there most recent, $80 program runs with Vista, and downloading that will fix all your problems. A complete bait-and-switch on what, from everything I've read and seen, is horrible software in the first place.

Summary: it seems to help but there are some obstacles
Comment: As a working mom on maternity leave, I was trying to use this to automate my current process- about 50 recipes get used from a couple of books and a lot of single pages torn from magazines, monthly I make a meal plan and weekly I revise it and put together a grocery list. The headaches are in finding the recipes, determining the grocery list, and minorly in setting up the monthly plan to keep from having spaghetti every night. I have started entering my recipes and have about 32 in- I consider it drudgery, but the software is somewhat helpful. Iam now playing with how it generates a grocery list, and I am thinking the software is trying to be too smart- trying to determine what size of a container I need to buy rather than what was written on the recipe, and I certainly dont want to be told brand names- I just want a SIMPLE grocery list, and would prefer to eliminate the brand names- seems like advertising I dont need. I plan to keep fiddling with this product and get as much use out of it that I can. Overall, I think its a good product if there arent better recipe programs out there yet.

Summary: Great program
Comment: My wife loves this program. And it is expandable. You can add other recipe programs to it by just buying them and downloading them, simple. Also add your own recipes, simply great.

Summary: Great Program
Comment: I was interested in using this program to organize my own family recipes, and not so much in the recipes it comes with. It has been great in that regard. Entering recipes is unbelievably quick and easy. The program has a glossary of ingredients, so fills in the ingredient as soon as you start typing it. It also knows to turn the ingredient to the plural if you are using more than one (will change "egg" to "eggs" by itself.) You can print recipes out on a number of formats, including recipe cards or special-size paper. It also has an extensive library of recipes of it's own, plus a feature where you can sign up to have the web site send you new recipes. I did not take advantage of that feature.

Summary: Heh!
Comment: This is the most frustrating software I have ever received. It's confusing to navigate; there's no common sense to it. It's going back. I had years ago a $10 recipe maker cd that was fantastic but i misplaced it and cant find it to load on my new computer. This product is $39. and a waste of money and time. Sorry! it's not up to snuff.
