sometimes when I do Ctrl Ctrl to put

in a new expansion nothing happens, but my existing expansions still work. Then when I get out of Extext and then back in, it works again with Ctrl Ctrl. It's strange. I thought it was just something with my computer.

Using Ctrl-I, you can get the count
for previous days by changing your PC calendar date to whichever day you want the counts for. To do this, at the lower right corner of your PC (called the system tray), right click on the time displayed. Click Adjust Date/Time and change it to the date you wish to see counts for. Go back to EXText and run your counts using Ctrl-I. Remember to change your date back to the current date.
On some O accounts you do have Ctrl I option
?
I work for TT and just tried to uset the Ctrl I sm
but got the message that I didn't have the right to view session statistics. It is a shame, because it would be nice to be able to check things like that while you're working.
Do ctrl S then search by your ID # and the date.
Then you can compare job #s but only if you're writing down the document ID and not the voice job ID.
When company does not allow CTRL i function to be used by its MT's.
EXText is the platform you transcribe in, but EXSpeech is the VR portion of Dictatphone EXText.
Ctrl I line count Ex-Text
No, people working on that system used to be able to see Ctrl I. I guess multiple people across the board who now are getting their line counts at ICHART site complained when they did a Ctrl I and the line count was VERY different from the ICHART site count they were told to use. Yes there can be a big discrepancy. I wonder why no one can look at Ctrl I any more? I wonder why they thought blocking it out would stop people from questioning things. I think it only made it worse. Any MT can and should use another source to count, whether it be Word, Sylcount or whatever, until they feel they are being counted fairly and equitably. If they tell you you are not getting pain for Headers and Footers you should be able to figure this out by comparing their count to yours. From 10,000 down to 8,000 is totally unacceptable and unbelievable. Good luck to anyone with this problem.
You use the Ctrl + keys to access everything in the program. Very

I just just Ctrl+F and search the current page or next.
I thought it was because Ctrl+I gives you all of the ilne count, but since they do sm
not pay for headers or footers, the line count at the ichart site represented the subtraction of the lines for the headers and footers. I could be wrong, but I thought that was how it was explained at the time. 
Reread, I do not use the Ctrl B function, so cannot answer. Sorry!
If you have to use what THEY say to use, you're stuck. Ctrl + I and logging in to iChart do not

Ctrl+I counts headers and footers, but we don't get paid for that sm
and we don't type it in, in any case. The headers and footers usually have text that is a lighter color and these are embedded headers and footers. We get paid for the regular color text. You aren't being cheated in the least. Consider, I worked for a company where they charged the MT a 65 character line for every report, although the headers and footers compromised a whopping 30 to 40 characters. On a short report, you paid the company for the privilege of transcribing it!! Embedded headers are not things we transcribe, but ARE paid for what we DO type.
This 1.236 accounts for the headers and footers, on ICD1. Different accounts have different headers or lack thereof and so it varies.
We could check our line counts up-to-the-minute with CTRL I inhouse n/m

Ctrl i in EXText for us MT's with TT gives a higher line count, because we do not get paid
for everything that that function shows. I-chart is as close to the exact amount of lines we get paid for than anything that we have. Ctrl i was blocked from us, but lately opened up for us to use; however, it is not what we get paid for. Hope this helps you.
TT sent out email saying CTRL i function is 7-12% higher than paid-for line counts,
so you would need to deduct 7-12% off function of CTRL I.
Per TT email regarding this subject, the headers and footers average between 7-12% of a document . . . Conversely, if you are transcribing a two to three line report/addendum, the header and footer may be as much as 50% or greater.
So, it is true that if we transcribe short reports, we are given the pleasure of transcribing almost FREE for TT !!!
This is about as clear as we MT's can get from TT regarding this line counting issue.
I've been with places that disabled Ctrl/I as they said the line count given was "too high.

Is this a live count of lines paid for or same as CTRL I that we do not get paid for ?? nm
