    Well, my spouse bought me MC 8 as an X-Mas Gift. I'm very happy with
    it, I just which it had more options for printing entire cookbooks.

    Wanting recipe software with more features than Mastercook 6 ( a
    Christmas present one year), I downloaded and tried Meal Master, Big
    Oven, Cook'n, AccuChef, Home Cooking and Now Your Cooking. To my
    surprise, I liked Mastercook the best. While I didn't like Meal Master
    at all, and I really wanted to since it was free, the others were
    pretty good, just didn't have all the features I wanted, and MC6 has
    most of them. I'm thinking of upgrading to MC 8, for the PDA and WEB
    import cabability.

    Any other software recommendations?

    Ok, so where do I pick up MC8? I did pick up the valuesoft version a
    while back (don't know the version number) but it had less capability
    than the older versions had!

    I need to be able to import all my old MC recipes and would love the
    PDA interface. Does it also import and export reciepies like they
    used to? The valuesoft version wouldn't bring in my old stuff without
    me doing each one manually!

    I've had MasterCook since version 3 and have never had a problem importing all
    of the cookbooks from 1 version to the next. I just installed version 8 and
    really like how easy it is to add recipes from the internet. I believe it does
    import/export to a PDA but I'm not sure how that works since I don't have a PDA.
    As far as capacity is concerned, I have 42 cookbooks with a total of 45,000+
    recipes and haven't exhausted it's capacity. MC 8 does suggest that you install
    it into a separate folder but during installation it asks if you want your
    cookbooks,recipes imported from MCx.
