-> It works!! I've been copying and pasting the text into Wordpad, saving,
-> then opening with my WordPerfect and saving in a specific folder, then
-> deleting the Wordpad document. This saves a lot of steps. I have several
-> recipe folders especially for Chile-stuff.

Wouldn't it be tons simpler just to get QBook, which unlike Mealmasher
and Mastercook has no format demands of its own, save stuff to any file
you like, and use QBook's excellent and easy import utility to grab 'em
straight in from there? With Mealmaster-formatted recipes, it's as
simple as hitting F for Find and I for Import; with other formats or
none, you may have to show it where the recipe begins and ends and type
in a title, but that's the only additional step.

It won't make your shopping list for you or multiply/divide your
recipes, but who can't do that for h/erself anyway?

It's very revealing, at least to me, that there is no QBook support
echo on any major net, and there are several for MealMasher, all
full of lengthy technical questions. IMHO, storing a recipe shouldn't
be harder than cooking what's in it. :)
