Living Cookbook question – recipe format

I have always had a difficult time coordinating my eyes and brain to jump between a list of ingredients and the directions.

My favorite format (which I do in MS Word) looks like this:
In a large bowl, mix:
a-
b-
c-
Add & stir gently:
a-
b-
etc.
Is this possible in Living Cookbook?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

    Susan, I am new to Living Cookbook so I am going to refer you to RichardFl who is an expert on it. He is not online right now so he will probably answer you later. I would say you could do it because it is basically an Excel format. Good luck.

    That is a very easy format to do in LCB. email me offline if you wish more help. Got to run to lunch with a local egghead.

    Look around here and see if you like it, get a trial. My version is '05 and I am still happy with it.

    You can easily do it in the Ingredients section or the Procedure Section or a combination.
