People have devised ways to enhance MasterCook that don't involve
importing. The tools listed here read export files. The first two
interpret the standard format. The third offers a way to transfer MC5+ recipes to a word processor;
it uses the xml export file
as a database.

MXP Browser - If you want to distribute your recipes to
friends who do not (yet!) have MasterCook, export your recipes to a file
in MC4 format. The MXP Browser is an ideal alternative to scrolling
thru the a long text file. Index by title or category. This free tool
displays recipes one at a time.
