Hi Carolyn. Actually, what I was hoping was that it could search the contents of the recipes in a certain folder for this one ingredient. In some recipes, sour cream isn't in the file name itself, so was hoping I could get it to search the contents. I could do this on Windows quite easily, so am hoping for a way to do it on Mac, or maybe a program that I could download that will do this for me.
Thanks so much for your help. On Jan 12, 2011, at 9:25 AM, Carolyn Haas wrote: > Hi Lynn: > Try interacting with the recipes folder.
