Hi Jim, I am making some headway with this, but I do have some questions. I will first explain what I do and ask my questions.
1. I open Mac Gourmet Deluxe and a recipe TXT file in my documents. 2. I highlight the text in the recipe file and then press CMD-SHIFT-M. This will open up Mac Gourmet Deluxe and the clipping item is selected in the table. 3. When I begin to tab over to the right, the only way I can view the recipe TXT file is to interact with the HTML. At this point, all of the text will seem to run together. 4. Now, I don't know how I get to the various edit fields, but when I do, I need to manually input the data. Hence, I know I am missing a step or two in order for the clipping to be entered into the various category edit fields. 5. I am not sure if I need to press or enter on the "Set" button or just go directly to the "Save" button. Here are my questions: 1. Is there a list of commands to use after a particular item is highlighted in my HTML area to input the text into the various fields? I know that you listed command 5 and command 6 for ingredients and directions, but what are the others and where can I find them. 2. The manual stated something about a popup button to open the various categories to place the info into, but I haven't found it. Where can I find this popup button. 3. I'm ending up performing a copy/paste into the edit fields. Do I need to set up my recipe TXT files for the various edit fields in Mac Gourmet, so they will be imported into them? this is it for now. Sorry for all of the questions, but this task of importing TXT files is not really straight forward. All of your assistance is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
