The Grocery List is intended to save you time at the grocery store.
It requires time to set-up, but after that you simply
click on items you will be shopping for and the Grocery List
program will print your grocery list in aisle order, based on
the grocery store you select.

As you create the grocery list, you can add a comment and/or 
indicate whether you have a coupon or not.  The comment can be
used to describe an item in further detail,.ie. soup is the 
item in the list but you want Clam Chowder.

The master list of items contains about 200 items and can have a 
maximum of 300 items.  You can have 10 stores with the registered
version or 1 store with the shareware version.  I have included
my Albertson's in the Shaware version.  You will need to rename
it to your store's name.

The easiest way to set-up the aisles for your store is to print
an "Aisle Order List" for Albertson's.  Although Albertson's
aisles will not be the same as your store, the list will have
90% of the items grouped in the same area as most of your stores.

Take this list and write your store aisles over the aisles that
show for Albertson's.

Change the Albertson's store name to your store's name.  If you 
delete Albertson's store, thinking you can add your store, the 
add option does not work! 

Update your store's directory by typing the aisles that you wrote
on the Albertson's aisle order list.  The aisle is limited to
4 characters.  I recommend you put a zeroin front of single digit
aisles like 1 through 9, .ie. 01, 02, 03...
This will ensure that the printed grocery list will be in order.

I would recommend that after you have updated the store directory 
for your store, that you print a store directory in "ITEM ORDER".
Put the list in a SAFE place for future reference.  You never know
when you'll have a disk failure and need to re-load all your software.
It would be a drag if you had to scout the aisles in your grocery store
all over again.

The grocery list is saved until you clear it.  So if you don't end up
going to the store, all you have to do is add more items to the
list and print it again.
