What do you use to save and catalog recipes?
I'm playing with TreeDBNotes-Free, and it may be the solution, but so far haven't found a way to import the several hundred recipes. Not sure the free version even allows that kind of import.

I went ahead and registered (purchased) the
TreeDBNotesPro, I love this DB program.
I have imported most of my text recipes, no problem.
This DB notes program is for all kinds of note storage, it has a ton of features, I use it now for my bookmarks, bill pay history, research on stuff. I keep all my passwords to forums, banking, subscription sites etc.
Ok for recipes,
TDBNpro uses tabs and each tab has a tree hierarchy, very similar to windows explorer.
Some of my tabs for recipes DB
BBQ, Misc, How-to, Events, Menus, Shopping.
under each tab are folders i.e. Poultry, Mexican.
under each folder is a subfolder or note .. with individual recipes.
What I like best.
•I can cut n paste recipes from the internet, bookmark to the orginal online recipe.
•Include images,
•Keep notes of changes or substitutions.
•Hyperlink to another recipe, i.e. a recipe calls for "pico de gallo", I hyperlink to one of my "pico de gallo" recipes.
•Its free form, or you can use templates that you create.
•its searchable
You can try it out for free....
