The main problem with this program is this insane registration requirements and total lack of support. 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

After a year of fooling around with Living Cookbook, I still cannot use it. Unless you ARE VERY computer literate, which I am not, it’s a waste of money. Even my husband who is very computer wise, couldn’t work it out after I even printed out the tutorial. They say that it’s “easy to use. ” That is a joke.
It is needlessly complicated, and one of those programs that some dope who doesn’t actually know how to cook thought up to make make money. They put their own crappy recipes on it, (Campbell’s Soup? Give me a break) and the inventory has their own inventory in no particular order – not by item or even alphabetical. Senseless.
Save your money.

I was unable to get this software to so much as install without generating a ‘fatal error’. I joined the ‘forum’, that this company calls its product support, and got no help, so I returned the software.

This software is great. 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.

I have used Living Cookbook for years. 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.
