Cumbersome to manage as a text file. Just grab a copy of MasterCook 9.0 (or 11.0 it's released now.) The archive files loaded real nice, by recipe, and the categories too. Highly recommended. About 10 bucks for 9.0. From Valusoft. Pierre |

I just glanced at the instrructions and I remember seeing Version 9 and Verison 11 (*or was that the Mastercook page?!). Doesn't matter. The instructions point out a couple of freeware utilities that will decode the files. -sw |

Unfortunately he'll be whining and complaining again here in a week about how he can't get his bottle of rub open, and somebody will offer to drive the 120 miles and open it for him. And he'll gladly accept the offer all the while posting to AFB about why it's not open yet. You can give a hungry man a fish... -sw |

Just tell notepad to open it and it does. Notepad don't have a ruler though so it's harder to read the long lines with wrap only at the extreme screen edges. -- Brick said that |

MXP = Master Cook Export = Textfile. It's not really formatted in the normal sense, but rather arranged in a particular order. -- Brick said that |
