Yes. Starting with Diet Pro 2005, you will need a version
upgrade license to upgrade to the latest version of the software.
However, the upgrade from Diet Pro 2003 to Diet Pro 2005 is
free. Free upgrade licenses were e-mailed to Diet Pro 2003
users on Tuesday, April 5, 2005. If you did not receive your
free license, please post a message on the Diet Pro Licensing
Forum. We will get your upgrade license to you right away.
If you don't have a high-speed Internet connection, your
can order the Demo CD ($3.50 shipping and handling to U.S.
addresses) and install the software from the CD.
Your recipes will be upgraded automatically, but we strongly
recommend that you backup your database before upgrading.

ingredient database? |

I just entered a new recipe with a

the ingredient database? |
| |
| Can I add my own
ingredients to the ingredient database? |
| Yes. You can add your own ingredients, enter nutritional
information, and link these ingredients to your own recipes.
See the application help topic title "Create an Ingredient"
for more information. |
| I just entered a
new recipe with a number of ingredients. Why can't I see those
ingredients in the ingredient database? |
| The ingredient database contains more than 6000
ingredients and their nutritional properties. An example of
an ingredient database entry is "Onions, raw." Recipe ingredients
are stored separately. An example of a recipe ingredient is
"1 cup chopped onion." A recipe ingredient such as "1 cup chopped
onion" can be linked to an ingredient in the ingredient database
such as "Onions, raw" in order to perform nutritional analysis.
You can add more ingredients to the ingredient database, but
this is rarely necessary since the database already contains
all of the ingredients found in most recipes. |
