Can you make it bigger???

If I buy Word 2007, can I put it on more than one computer in my house or is the license restricted to just one computer?  Thanks for sharing if you know the answer. 

I have digital voice Editor 2 and I have no problems using wav files or mp3 files on it.  But I do not know how to get .dss files to work on it.  Does anyone else use digital voice editor 2 for freelance work and if so, how do you get .dss files to work?

Or maybe just a general question, what program can I get to be able to use .dss files. 

Thanks in advance

I am testing for a company and I need a good website with Opthamology terminology?

Thanks

Has anyone worked for them?

Time to start my day and dinner but bored with the same meat choices.  I cook for a shrimp and steak spouse.  He would probably love lobster too, but I am not for cooking anything while it is still alive.  I could eat fruits and vegetables (salads)  all day long and be perfectly happy with that.

Thanks for any ideas and if you can't think of anything, that's okay too.:)   Have a wonderful productive day!!

Greeting everyone!

There was a recent post form someone inquiring about salary etc. Many replied you may even start below minimum wage. I can confirm that because that is what I am making.  I am not complaining........few expenses involved and my family situation forces me to be home, which I am blessed to be able to do.  The company I am with has also been great up until this point but now getting stricter. (Do not blame them.)

How long does it usually take to get up to say 150 lph? On pirmary account dictators are the same. On secondary acoout you may get dermatology, ortho, psych, neuro, OB etc. Enjoy the variety but hard to develop speed.

Thanks for any and all advice!

I am thinking of taking a job that pays by the gross line and not a 65-character line.  I have never worked this way.  Does this literally mean if there is one little word on a line you get paid for it?  I have not pinned her down on a line rate but I am just thinking I am going to be comparing apples to oranges and am wondering how to accomplish that. 

Thanks for any help!

Hopefully somebody out there can help me out on this one.  I watched this moving about 4 or 5 years ago, I believe it was even a Sundance Film Festival Movie, but not sure.  It is about 2 families, 1 Irish Catholic family with several kids and one particular curious 10 year old boy and Jewish family with only 1 child who is 10 and the 2 boys become friends.  The whole point of the movie is their different religions and the 2 boys trying to figure out if their religions are so different why is the outcome for both getting to heaven.  The 2 boys end up doing all kinds of "challenges" and what not through the movie to ensure their place in heaven while also trying to sort out why their families are so different and against them playing with each other.  In the end, I believe the Jewish boy ends up getting sick and dying and the 2 families end up being brought together by this and also brought together by the donation of the Jewish parish to the eldest boy in the Catholic family so he can go to college (which of course the Catholic father is against at first because of pride). 

I think that is how the movie goes but I only saw it once.  The reason I want to show my kids is because they are 9 and 10 and all of a sudden becoming facinated with why people have different religions and beliefs and how some of their piers "don't like some kids" because of their religion, etc.  This movie was a good example of how we are all the same no matter what we believe and I want my girls to know that and to know that they should not judge somebody by their beliefs and I want them to know that we ALL can teach each other something new no matter what our backgrounds are or how we were raised or even how old we are.  Can somebody help me with this movie title?  It would be greatly appreciated. 

from some hokey place across the pond. Getting so sick of these emails that I finally replied to one that said, 'OH YEAH? HOW'S THIS FOR A REPLY-MAYBE I'LL JUST REPORT YOU TO THE FBI BECAUSE I KNOW THIS IS A SCAM TO STEAL MY MONEY AND IDENTITY. DON'T SEND ME ANY MORE OF YOUR JUNK AGAIN! '

She wrote me back and told me to get scr*wed.  LOL    We'll see if it stops. 

Does anybody use ATT/SBC DSL?  If so, how is it?

I have Insight (cable), and I have a problem with no internet connections at least once every 2 weeks and thinking about switching.

Thanks!

I would like to know how to delete or reprogram a key that is programmed to disconnect.  This would prevent my pressing it by mistake.   

Thanks.

All I can here is zoom, zooom, zoooom.  He paaaaaaaaaaaaaaauses for long stretches while he watches.  It's driving me crazy.  I keep getting report after report by him.

Was at the hospital yesterday for some radiology testing. To summon me from the waiting area (full of other patients), the person who does the registrations used my first and LAST NAME! Bleah!

Then, after I was registered and back in the waiting area, another patient entered, sat beside me, and said "So, you're here for the same thing I am--I heard you mention it when you were being registered. I was in the next cubicle."

Shortly after this a different hospital employee summoned another patient from the waiting area using first AND LAST NAME! EEEK!

What on Earth ever happened to the HIPAA regulations? HIPAA applies to the hospital setting, right?

Any suggestions?

  doc says "However, the patient was terminated by technician who felt the patient was becoming diaphoretic and having his symptomatology associated with shortness of breath."

 scribe types "However, the study was terminated by the technician who felt the patient was becoming diaphoretic and having symptoms associated with shortness of breath."

I currenlty have one account of my own and am an IC through a very small local transcription company.  However, I want more of my own accounts.  I have sent letters and am willing to do more.  Does anyone have any idea on what it takes to "land" an account?  Thanks so much for any ideas/help/suggestions!!

I calculate let's say 8 cpl as an average as doing about 3100 lines per hour.  Now tell lme how that is humanly possible????????????????? DUHHHHHHHHHH

we received our "incentive packet."  They don't even have the wherewithall to contact us personally.   These are temp-agency hired telemarketers sitting around a boiler room making sure we're reading our mail.... told him it don't pertain to me because I've been demoted from FT to SE.... He said, "yes, the letter is vague, but it does pertain to FT as well as SE...." yeah right, we'll see.

a way to transfer my autotext files from Word 2003 into Chartscript so that I don't have to build a whole new Expander list?  Getting ready to start a new job and was just wondering.  I haven't got a clue!

Thanks

as i understand it.  But cannot document in the BOS; is it there? Also wonder how this fits with the dangerous abbreviations...a 420-cc expander?

what do you do, mL for all?

I'm looking start up my own small bus., just a couple accounts, but I need to know if there are any HIPAA contracts or anything else that I should be providing for the doctor and myself to sign.  Any advice would be truly appreciated!!

Thnx, Rachel
