    Mastercook and Now You're Cooking seem to be the one's most folks here use.
    I use Mastercook.

    I use Mastercook. I used the trial copy of Now You're Cooking. Well, at
    least I downloaded it. I really never had the time to test it.

    I just ordered the Living Cookbook after comparing the features to
    Mastercook and Now You're Cooking. I believe it had a few extra
    features that the others did not. For those of you who use NYC or MC,
    I'd be curious to know the following:

    1. Are fractions such as 1/3, 2/3 , etc. available? I understand the
    more common fractions such as 1/4 and 1/2 are included.

    2. Is is possible to include both volume and weight measurements in
    specific recipes?

    The Living Cookbook has a 30 or 60 day money back guarantee and I did
    go thru the online tutorial, so I hope not to be disappointed.

    Thanks,
    Ginny

    Yes. All fractions are converted and converted to decimal, scaled,
    etc.

    When you post recipes to the BigOven.com shared recipe archive (where
    other cooks can find, rate and import recipes with each other -- see
    http://www.bigoven.com/find.htm), the fractions are posted in text form
    with a decimal equivalent.

    BigOven allows you to enter weight or volume measures. At present, it
    doesn't automatically convert volume to weight based upon ingredients,
    but does let you link up nutritional items to get nutritional content.
    About 300 pre-linked relationships are included in the basic program,
    so you can get the gram weight immediately for those.

    I can testify to NYC - I had MasterCook for ages, but decided to demo
    NYC and fell in love with it. Easiest import/export feature I can
    imagine (and, yes, I demo'd Meal Master way back when).

    old as the bird, and if the bird's breasts had been as full as the
    waitress's, it would have been a very good dinner."

  12. I can't answer your question. I am getting desparate trying to respond
    to anyone as an exercise for my HNC course.
