You can also try shop and cook at http://www.shopncook.com they give you 45 day free trail fully operational. After 45 days I dont know what happens as I bought it after only 2 weeks. John

just a note to add mine above. I dont like to type but this is very easy to put your own recipies in it, and recalculating servings just hit button, and shopping items automaticly goes in

I wasn’t sure where to post this, so I’ll start here and trust that someone will move me if am wrong.

My wife has our family cookbook that is crammed full of recipes from various sources. Some are part of the cookbook but many others are on loose pieces of paper of various sizes, cards, and even cut out from magazines or food packages. It’s a mess. When she wants to find a recipe, she has to thumb through the pile until she finds the one she wants.

I have a lot of recipes that I store on the computer in Word format and also have many that I have bookmarked.

I have Office 2003, with Word, Excel and Access. Does anyone have any suggestions as to the best way to store and retrieve these recipes? I don’t know whether to type them all in Word and just keep them in a file folder, or an Access database, then we can change the amounts needed, if say we double the recipe. maybe there’s another program that would be better.

I’m open to suggestions. Thanks.

Check out shopncook its free for 45 days then you have to pay for it. I dont know what happens after 45 days as I paid for it after 2 weeks
