I just have 2 big folders called recipes and recipes one, but I need to make them into smaller folders and make more of them. Then, when I want a recipe I go to the start menu and do a search, and up pops all the recipes. I've saved each recipe separately. I might make folders some day with the individual recipes inside of them, but it seems like a lot of work to go to since I can use the search feature. I have over 60,000 recipes, so it would really be a huge chore at this point.

I pretty much do the same as immagrant. Oyster casserole would go in my sea food folder However, I make sure that in the title (even if I have to change name) will also put in ingredients I know I might look for...
example: given name = fish bake
but after reading find out it is a casserole that uses wite fish and has mushrooms in it
I will rename it mushroom white fish casserole
doing it this way I can go into my seafood folder in that folder I have other folders like shrimp, salmon etc. but having the mushrooms listed first I can just go down my list using the letter m pop to mushroom and then look for a dish I want to make... that is if I have mushrooms and looking for something to use them with *smile* I am redoing my entire cookbook which has taken on a life of its own, but even now I can already see if I have layered a recipe too deep into folers or have to rename it. so you will have to work with it and decide what types of listings work for you...
good luck
Dee

I personally don't have a folder for casseroles. So, an oyster casserole
would go into my seafood folder. Otherwise, if a recipe overlaps a couple of categories, I put it into the category where the most pronounced ingredient
belongs. For example, "cheesy mushroom fish bake" will go into the seafood
folder, not the mushrooms folder, because fish, not mushrooms, would be the
main ingredient.

Where would you file a recipe that could go into 2 or more folders such as
(oyster casserole), that could go in the folder called: seafood, or the
folder called casseroles? Thanks for your input. Kerry
