Frequently Asked Questions - Now You're Cooking!

1. Can I delete the original image files that I used for my NYC recipes?
   
   Yes. Once you attach an image to a recipe in NYC, a copy of the image is stored in your cookbook's image archive (*.ima). You may want to keep the original image files for backup, but they are not needed for NYC operation.
   
   
2. Suppose I import some recipes that had ratings attached to them. I'm not interested in their ratings, so is there a way to clear out these raters and their ratings globally without doing it recipe by recipe?
   
   Raters and rating criteria are global across a cookbook and can be modified in the rating window. Open the recipe selection window and open a recipe, then press the Rate button. In the rating window you will see a Raters... button. Click that and you will see that you can selectively add and delete raters. Then save these changes, open a different recipe, press Rate button, and you will see that the raters list is changed globally (for all recipes in a cookbook). Removing a rater also removes that rater's ratings. You can also globally add and remove rating criteria in the same fashion using the "Criteria..." button on the rating window.
   
   The cookbook indexes *.rdx (ratings) and *.rli (raters, criteria) contain the rating info for each cookbook, but you should only attempt to modify these via NYC (not manually).
   
   
3. How do I duplicate a recipe? I can't find a "Save As..." or "Save Recipe As..." anywhere.
   
   Press the R toolbar button on the main interface (or use Recipes.... Recipes...), select a recipe, then press the Copy toolbar button on the recipe selection window.
   
   
4. How can I delete a recipe while editing the recipe? It is too much trouble to close the recipe, look for it on the recipe list in the cookbook, delete it, and then try to find the spot you were last at in the recipe order.
   
   There is already a very efficient way to do what you want to do. The tagging feature lets you tag recipes for later operations such as Delete, Export, etc. When you have a recipe open that you want to delete, just tag it (hit the Tag button on the recipe edit window). Then, when you are ready to delete the tagged recipes, select the tagged recipes radio button on the recipe selection list to display tagged recipes, press Select All, then press the Delete toolbar button.
   
   You may want to remove the tagging from all recipes in the cookbook before you do this. To do this, use Tools... Data Management... Cookbooks... Untag Recipes button.
   
   
5. When I use Quick Web Recipes, I get "Error 449 Argument not optional". What is happening?
   
   This can occur if the version of the internal zip engine that NYC requires is not consistent with the installed version. The zip engine NYC uses is "activezip.ocx" - it is a shared file in your windows \system (or \system32) folder. Thus, if you use other applications that require "activezip.ocx", either NYC or the other application may fail due to need for a different version of "activezip.ocx" to be installed as the shared file. Usually this problem can be fixed by downloading and installing the latest version of NYC, which will contain the latest "activezip.ocx" file.
   
   
6. I get "Error 67 in ImprtGo2" when I try to import recipes. What is happening?
   
   You have too many files in the folder you are trying to import into.
   
   
7. The Menu features don't seem to be working. They are grayed out when I have a recipe open.
   
   Close the recipe edit window and the recipe selection window, then the Menu features will be enabled. These windows cannot be open at the same time.
   
   
8. I selected Swedish for the spelling checker language, but I cannot see it affecting the result in any way. How does the spelling checker work? How should I check that it works?
   
   Now when you spell-check a recipe, and a misspelled word is found (according to the Swedish wordlist), the candidate words for changing the misspelled word are in Swedish. These show in the list on the spell check window when a misspelled word is found.
