I saw a few weeks ago a link on here to a website that gave conversions, like, how many cups of flour or how many cups of shortening would weigh a pound. I had bookmarked it at the time but since then our computer crashed and now I can't find it. Can someone help me?

Try the following site, it's great and so easy to use. It converts according to volume/ingredient-so you can see exactly how many cups in a pound of shortening or sugar. Hope it's what you're looking for.
