- Mastercook II Export - Ingredients will now be formatted correctly when exporting Mastercook II to the clipboard.
- Resizing Bugs Fixed - Resizing will now work correctly if you choose no ingredient formatting on the Options screen. I also fixed resizing errors when there are spaces in the ingredient quantities (i.e. 2 8 ounce cans).
- Source Code Cleaned Up - I fixed several typographical errors in the source code, and consolidated internal file definitions to minimize future errors. I also simplified some of the internal security checks.
- Cloud Operations - All user data files are now included with cloud uploads (grocery, meals, blogs, etc.) to make it easier to move to another computer. Your current data files are also backed up before downloading from the cloud (in case you cancel the download). Unfortunately, I still haven't found a solution for those experiencing upload issues with Windows 7.
- Program Settings - Program settings now have a new file format and have been separated into application and user files. Printer settings are now hex encoded to work with the new file formats.
- Data Location - You can now change the location of your personal data files on the Options screen. This allows you to install Home Cookin on multiple computers, and move your data to a common network drive (NAS) to share on all systems. Unfortunately, this is a fairly crude implementation, so you can't open Home Cookin if another computer is currently using the data files (one computer at a time). If you don't need to share your data files, just leave the data location unchanged.

Busy, Busy, Busy...
I pictured retirement as a time to relax, spend more time together, and
travel the world. Unfortunately, that is not our reality. It seems we are
busy all the time. We live life around our calendar, often going separate
directions, trying to squeeze in a little personal time among errands,
doctor appointments, family obligations, and chores around the house.
I'm still dreaming of that warm sunny beach sipping pina coladas... :)
Until next time, take care everyone!
