Unfortunately I was never able to do the down loads they promised. Following the instructions ended in a dead end. Perhaps my incompetence is at fault. The next disappointment was the ingredient data base. I discovered many ingredients I commonly use were not listed. I am now back to MasterCook9. The final straw, there seems to be no way to contact the company for problems not listed in their help file. <br /> <br />Follow up 1/11/10: I received a call from Radion Tech about my problems. Seems my comments (see above) were the result of my ignorance. The person who call patiently lead me through the problems. Thanks Radion Tech. Rating: 5 / 5 This cook book looked so good.

My only gripe is that it comes loaded with recipes I will probably never use. Rating: 5 / 5 It’s so easy to create recipes and capture them from online.

I currently use LC2008. All of the reasons that I love LC are listed in other reviews. I am a home cook and LC has made my life easier. It is an easy program to use and the support is WONDERFUL! I have always either found answers to my questions by using the help files, searching the forums or by asking a question and receiving a VERY QUICK reply. I highly recommend Living Cookbook.

I would highly recommend it. It has met all my expectations. The tutorials make it easy to use. It stores recipes, creates menus and shopping lists and has easy search capabilities. Good Value for the price. Rating: 5 / 5 This software is great. I would highly recommend it. It has met all my expectations. The tutorials make it easy to use.

The registration is the same hassle as installing windows and the only support is through a forum where you have to register for that too. Also the inface is clunky and looks about 20 years old. None of the pieces really work together On the up side you can export stuff to a lot of different formats so when you get something better, as I am, you won;t need to reenter you recipies Rating: 1 / 5 The main problem with this program is this insane registration requirements and total lack of support.
