WWW Page at http://www.ffts.com/download.htm __________________________________________________________________________________ INSTALLATION: WARNING!!! : If you have a previous version of NYC on your system, DO NOT select its directory as the installation path; use a new directory. Otherwise, you may OVERWRITE a personalized recipe database and other important files with the sample ones that come with the NYC archive! Step 1. Make sure PKZIP.EXE and PKUNZIP.EXE or WINZIP.EXE exist on your system and that you know their location (you will need to tell NYC where they are using Options... Preferences... PKZip/PKUnzip paths...-OR- WinZip Path... after installation). NYC will run without these but NYC will not be able to create .ZIP files for you when you Zip Cookbooks. Step 2. Make sure VBRUN300.DLL is in your \windows\system directory using Explorer or File Manager. Now You're Cooking! will not execute without it. If you have trouble running NYC because of VBRUN300.DLL, make sure you obtain the 8-24-96 398416 bytes version of VBRUN300.DLL. Step 3. Install NYC: Make sure ALL other applications are closed. Double-click setup.exe in the list of files that were unzipped. This will run the Setup program that will install Now You're Cooking! on your hard drive under c:\NYC460 unless you select another location during the install. For convenience during later backups, all user modifiable files are installed in a \user subdirectory. WARNING: DO NOT select a previous NYC directory as your install path! If you want to do this, rename the old directory first. Example: You want to install NYC 4.60 into a directory that is named \NYC460 and you already have a directory named \NYC460. To avoid installing over the old one, first rename the existing directory (use File... Rename... in the File Manager) to \NYC460ol and then install NYC into \NYC460. Step 4. Before you run NYC (---IMPORTANT---): Make sure your PC's date and time are set correctly using Control Panel. If you are upgrading from The Grocery Consumer (NYC's predecessor), follow these instructions: Upgrading from any 2.xx version of GC: You must run GC2XTO3X.EXE to convert recipe file, category index, and menu file to GC 3.xx format. This will create these files in v3.xx format in your previous (v2.xx) directory. You will then need to use File... Upgrade... procedure when you first run NYC as follows. Upgrading from any 3.xx version of GC: Go to Step 5. Step 5. When you run NYC for the first time (dbl-click the NYC icon): If you are registered and using a previous NYC 4.x or GC 3.x version: ------------------------------------------------------ NOTE: If you are a registered user upgrading from a version prior to NYC 4.50, you MUST email your name and registration number to sales@ffts.com to get an upgraded registration code (FREE). Use NYC's File...Upgrade... to upgrade user files from your previous NYC directory. If you are upgrading from GC and the version you used previously was GC 3.06 or earlier, make sure you check the box to upgrade your coupon list when you do File... Upgrade... (next step). There was a format change in the coupon list for GC 3.07 and higher. If you are NOT registered and using a previous NYC version: ---------------------------------------------------------------- Register the new version (see REGISTRATION INFORMATION later in this file, enter the registration code using Help... Register... Reg. Info button. Then run File... Upgrade... to upgrade user files from your old NYC directory to the new one. NOTE: If you wish to continue adding to your recipe database as you upgrade but you aren't a registered user, you may contact Gary Hauser via internet email. I will tell you how to do this if your need is legitimate and you intend to register in the near future. IMPORTANT : WARNING: Do not attempt to use a registered key or code that does not belong to you, or data loss could result. Do not attempt to edit the nyc.key file or alter it in any way, or data loss could result. Step 6. You are DONE! Begin using Now You're Cooking! to manage your grocery activities. __________________________________________________________________________________ PROBLEMS OR QUESTIONS: Read NYC's detailed on-board Help (Help... Contents...) and the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document on the NYC WWW Page (see URL below). Now You're Cooking!

SHAREWARE is licensed software that you can try for free before you buy. If you like NYC and wish to continue using it, you register it with the author. See the ordering information below or NYC's o n-line help (Help... Register... ) on how to order by direct mail from the author or with a credit card. This SHAREWARE program is distributed with the concept that if you find it useful and continue to use it beyond a 60-day free trial period, you must send in the registration fee. See the file REGISTER.TXT for the order form, or complete and print the form using Help...Register... from NYC's main menu. To help you evaluate the program, the shareware version of NYC is fully functional. However, NYC will inform you after a 30-day trial period that you have not registered. If you have not registered after 60-days, NYC will disallow further use, and you must register at that time to continue using the software. You will not lose any of your cookbooks that you have worked hard on, even after 60 days, but you will not be able to access them until you register. The version you have is fully functional during this trial period. It will demonstrate the power of this software because thousands of recipes can be imported quickly from Meal-Master (tm) sources and maintained efficiently. Distribution and Use of the NYC Shareware Archive You are granted permission to distribute the nyc4xx.zip (downloadable version) archive freely, provided all the original files are kept together unaltered in any way. You may not disassemble, decompose, reverse engineer, or alter any of the files in the package for any reason.

Now You're Cooking! is a full-featured recipe organizer and database, meal planner, shopping list maker, and grocery cost manager for Windows. Now You're Cooking! (hereafter called NYC) is a super easy way to manage all of these activities in one interface. NYC is more than a recipe manager -- it gives you the consumer power to compare the cost of your shopping list at all your favorite stores and create shopping lists organized by store aisle. It will even flag coupons applicable to your shopping list when you use NYCÆs coupon manager. NYC makes a shopping list from a multi-day meal plan that you create by selecting recipes (dishes) for each day's meals from any of your personalized recipe databases (cookbooks). You can add miscellaneous items (e.g., cat food, deodorant, toothbrush) to the shopping list, or remove items from the list that you have in stock before printing the list that you take to the store. No more forgetting those obscure little items and wasting your time going back to the store! You can maintain as many meal plans and associated shopping lists as you like. You can search for recipes across cookbooks by category, text string in the recipe name, ingredients, or directions areas. You can easily add, edit, or delete recipes from multiple cookbooks (recipe databases). Droplists are provided on the recipe editing screen to provide consistent use of ingredient names and units. No more fumbling through boxes of paper or cards to find a favorite recipe. Simply select it and print it from your recipe database. You can rapidly expand your recipe collection by easily converting Meal-Master (tm) recipes (literally thousands are available on the internet) to NYC cookbook format. You can assign recipes to user-defined categories, or let NYC auto-assign categories for you. You can fine-tune how NYC auto-assigns recipes to categories. You can exchange recipes with friends using NYC's recipe import and export features. These allow you to copy any or all of your recipes and share them with others, or include NYC recipes they give you into your NYC cookbooks. NYC can also create a .ZIP recipe file (compressed recipe file) for you. This feature provides a means for efficient backup or exchange of your cookbooks. NYC will provide nutritional analyses for recipes and menus based on a 5641 USDA nutrition database. Users can also enter nutrition data for items not in the database. The author of NYC has a real problem with software that requires too many keystrokes for data entry and program navigation. Accordingly, most data entry screens throughout NYC are equipped with entry guessing and droplists to minimize keystrokes during data input. With entry guessing, you seldom need more than a keystroke or so before NYC adds the rest, guessing the remaining characters based on a search of existing items in the droplist. Droplists can also be viewed at data entry and items selected with the mouse. Cut and paste operations using standard Windows techniques can be used almost anywhere in the NYC interface. In summary, a lot of data entry and editing power is at your fingertips with NYC. NYC uses a price list for stores that the user builds, along with extensive use of units conversions, to handle the tough job of converting recipe-size ingredient amounts into store-size purchase amounts. This way NYC is able to cost out the greatest portion of your shopping list using available price list information. Each item you add to a recipe or shopping list is added to your price list automatically; you need only add the prices. As you improve your price list and units conversion list, NYC can use a higher and higher portion of the shopping list to establish a shopping list cost. In other words, the more you use it, the smarter NYC gets. When comparing NYC features and price with other recipe/cooking/grocery management software, we believe NYC represents the best value (i.e., features for the price) available today for Windows - including commercial, shareware, or otherwise. Functionality and ease of use has been emphasized in its development, and its convenient interface has evolved via thoughtful feedback from avid users in all walks of life. NYC is a powerful program that makes a job we all must do very fast, efficient, and even fun. It can cut hours off the time it takes to locate and organize your favorite recipes, plan your menu, and create your shopping list. And, it helps you save time and money in grocery shopping trips. Concepts (Functionality) ╖ ingredients build recipes, recipes build meal plans, meal plans build shopping lists, shopping lists are used to quantify costs ╖ user selects a menu period up to 28 days, builds a menu by selecting recipes for each day ╖ user selects up to six dishes (i.e., recipes) for each meal in a menu period ╖ NYC automatically creates a shopping list from the completed menu ╖ user can add miscellaneous items to shopping list or remove items on hand ╖ NYC computes the cost of the shopping list cost for several stores of interest ╖ NYC creates a shopping list by aisle for any of the several stores ╖ NYC provides nutritional analysis for recipes and meal plans ╖ user can scale (resize) recipes if a recipe doesn't serve enough people ╖ with the help of Now You're Cooking! to streamline the process, the user: builds and maintains a list of store prices and aisles for various items builds and maintains a list of units conversions builds and maintains database of recipes that includes ingredients, units of measure, quantities, etc. and directions (optional) for each recipe ╖ NYC can print: shopping list shopping list by aisle shopping list cost meal plan meal plan recipes any or all recipes in user cookbook recipe categories recipes in each category droplists (ingredients, units of measure, preparations, misc items, brands) coupon list unit conversions list prices and aisles lists __________________________________________________________________________________ REGISTRATION INFORMATION This registration information is provided for unregistered users, or for registered users who wish to help another person register NYC.
