How do you put this in AutoCorrect? Wouldn't shorthand work the same way?
nm
I have mine in autocorrect as yo. Autocorrect with
expand the abbreviation after a hyphen...so if I type 41-yo it auto expands to 41-year-old
Yes, Shorthand. They have an address datatbase that is in Shorthand, so that's what they sm
prefer you use. nm
I just use my autocorrect. nm

Can you use AutoCorrect in VR mode?

Not autocorrect. I know those work. How did you
They've never worked for me in BT and I was told autotext can't be converted in BT.
AutoCorrect should be the least of your problems
You will spend most of your time doing data entry which you won't be paid for. Amphion uses Dictaphone EXtext which has it own Expander program called ESP. AutoCorrect is not compatible with it. However the bigger problem is you will have to add all the patient data if you have an account that doesn't interface with the facility and most of the time newbies are stuck with this account. You will do a lot of busy work and won't be paid for it. Wish you a lot of luck though but Amphion didn't work for me.
I personally think Autocorrect is as good as anything.
I don't even bother with Shorthand
AutoCorrect is not compatible with Extext ESP

re: AutoCorrect/Instant Text
I, too, have used AutoCorrect exclusively for the last 2 years and have been able to do very well on my line counts; however, after some recent research into Instant Text I ordered it (and actually just received today). While I have not had time to use it yet, I really like the fact that it has WAY more capability than AutoCorrect. I can't wait to experiment with it and believe it will prove to be a worthy investment when I learn all of its possible functions.
Autocorrect entries into Emdat?
How can I get my MS Word autocorrect entries into Emdat Inscriber without having to enter them all over again? Thanks
Do you have an Autocorrect feature? You could delete what's

Faster, easier, and more reliable than Autocorrect.

chartscript and importing autocorrect entries
Can someone tell me how (if even possible) to import my autocorrect entries from MS WORD to the chartscript expander? I am using ShortHand in there now and it is driving me CRAZY as 90% of the time it partially expands the words.. Guess I could import the entries from shorthand if that is easier…
Word Autocorrect to Emdat InScribe
You can use a tool that Emdat has written to convert your Word Autocorrect to InScribe. It can be downloaded from http://www.emdat.com/software, under Support. Also, feel free to call the helpdesk with such questions as well at 630-743-0500.
UST used to have software that didn't allow expanders of any kind, inc. AutoCorrect. Ask if you

Do they allow you an expansion program or Autocorrect usage? Old posts say they didn't. nm

Shorthand
Hi, I asked this question on the equipment board, but I haven't received any messages from anyone there, so I hope you don't mind my posting it here:
I've just started using the Shorthand expander and I love it, but I'm hoping someone will be able to tell me how to get it to capitalize the first letter of new sentences in a word document platform. It expands better than any program I've ever used, but it doesn't cap the first letter in the sentence and it would be So helpful if it did.
If anyone can share how to do that with me, I'd really appreciate it!! Or,if it can't be done please let me know that also:) Thanks in advance!!
Shorthand
I understand how to make a word capitalized if it's one of the entries in shorthand, but I'm talking about having the first word in any sentence come out capped even if it's not something I'm expanding. I do appreciate your answers, I really do, but they still don't address what I'm trying to do. I want to be able to type along and have the first letter of any given sentence be capped without doing it manually...like you normally can do when just typing along in Word and using autocorrect....except that I don't use autocorrect any longer and now use just ShortHand..and thought there must be a way to set it up to use that command of capping the first word in new sentences. That's what I need to know about:)
For the replies about how to set this up in autocorrect, I thank you, but if you notice I'm Not using autocorrect as when I copy and paste part of a report into my Word document, the copying and pasting procedure completely turns off autocorrect...but it doesn't bother ShortHand and I can still use my expanders in ShortHand..whereas nothing will expand from autocorrect if the text has been pasted in the document.
shorthand
Can you type in emdat using shorthand? I had always heard Expanders did not work with the program and would mess it up.
Yes, I use Shorthand. I still was using PRD+ and was able sm
to convert it, so I was very happy. It is amazing how many entries you end up with.
I still think that PRD+ is better but I am used to ShortHand now.
Shorthand & TA
Although you can't use ShortHand with TA. Fast Chart can import your word list into TAspeed for you to use so you don't have to recreat your list.
Shorthand
If you are trying to get an Expander that works in windows in general (email, ftp, any program)--then I use shorthand. I use it a lot when typing emails or anything really..good luck.
Or what about Shorthand? nm

shorthand
I use MS Word the auto correct and Expanders and that seems to work fine. What would be different if I went to Instant Text or Flash Type of one of those? And what is a good one to use?
Shorthand?

Yes. I'm at TT and use Shorthand.

Can you use shorthand
with IChart? Thanks!
PC Shorthand
work very well with MediTech
with shorthand, you don't have to --sm
*fiddle with it*, it just works on it's own. I hated IT. Still have it in the box with an inch of dust on it. What a waste of a huge amount of money! with shorthand, you just start typing and any words entered into its dictionary by yu just expand on their own. Wish I had the money back I had spent on InstanText..180.00 as opposed to 29.99 ...um, gee, I don't know which to choose! *fiddling with it* to get it to work as opposed to just typing...hmmm.
Shorthand
I use ShortHand and love it.
I also use PC Shorthand...
...and really like it. It is easy to learn and easy to use. As one of the other posters said, you can get a 30-day free trial. Nothing to lose.
Why don't you just use Shorthand to...
ctrl+N/header/enter.
If you don't want to do that you can still use SH to expand into the header field. You don't have to manually type it out or pick from the list.
For numbered lists it's 1 keystroke - ctrl+L.
Very easy.
Will we be able to use our ShortHand with the new WMX VR? nm

I love shorthand
Its compatible with everything because it runs independently. So you can be doing email or Word, or WP or be working on a specific platform and it will work for you.
How do you bold in ShortHand? nm
/
THIS IS HOW YOU BOLD IN SHORTHAND
{@KEY ctrl+b}?{@KEY ctrl+b}
Copy this, put it in the text, where the ? mark is add what you want, like {@KEY ctrl+b}CHIEF COMPLAINT{@KEY ctrl+b} I put ccbx (the bx is to determine it is bold)to differentiage it from any other description so all bold descriptions will all have bx at the end. Hope this helps
They provide shorthand and sm
you have to have high-speed internet connection. Even with that, the last few days the platform has been iffy. They like to blame it on the internet, but they platform is the problem. Cuts out constantly. Lots of downtime.
I have used both, prefer Shorthand (SM)
Learning curve was too tedious and long on instant text. I found I could program ShortHand to do most of the same things.
Axolotl Does NOT use Shorthand
Axolotl uses SpeedType. It is a great program. It can hold up to 8-page reports.
Still using TWS but started using Shorthand sm
and it's much better than the macros in TWS. For some reason, I just seem to make more macros with Shorthand. I think the Clarity/Cornerstone platform still has quite a few bugs and hear that not too many people are liking it. Am hoping I stay in TWS for a while!
