Is the Dorlands a software program or book and ... sm
did you find the Dorlands with the Stedmans spell check for only 49.95??? That sounds like a great deal!!! thanks for the info!
Two: Dorlands and The Surgical Word Book -- SM
I use secure online reference sites for everything else.
Amen! Amen! Amen. You have helped me this day, by taking out time to write such a post!
May God bless you tremendously.
Dorlands
I got Dorland's spellchecker about a year or so ago when I bought the new 30th edition of the dictionary. I feel it is comperable to Steadmans. The hard back dictionary and the CD spellchecker together cost only $50. Even if you don't need the dictionary, there aren't many spellcheckers out there for that price. Check their website to see if they are still offering this, though. Like I said, this was about a year ago.
I use the online Dorlands. sm
I agree- DORLANDS ALL THE WAY
Dorlands is far better than Stedman's, at least for radiology, its amazing. I too purchased the dictionary (30th edition) and the CD spell checker came free. (50.00!) Have never had to open the dictionary - the spell checker is that good - plus you can use Dorland's.com for free - and if you go to that site, (as a registered member, you can now download an additional free spell checker.
For my laptop I purchased the FULL Dorlands dictionary on CD Rom. That's nice. but not necessary.
It's PUSSY it's in Dorlands and Websters.

Always Dorlands' first and foremost. Stedmans is a poor second.

Just make a note in your book and go on. Every book I read you can find an error
or 2. Nobody is perfect. Lucky you only paid $60. New it is $80 or more.
I would buy book by Dog Whisperer. His TV shows covers things like this and would think his book mi

Quick Look Drug Book (book & CD/ROM)..sm..
Does anyone use both. I'm definitely getting the CD/ROM and am debating about buying both. I don't see any reason to have both but there could be something I don't know.
I noticed CD/ROMs are on backorder but they're selling downloadable versions. I can handle that.
The Sted's Ortho & Rehab Words is probably my most used book and then the Lab Words book. GL! nm

Medical Word Book by Sloan, Surgical Word Book by sm
Tessier, Dorland's dictionary, BOS, and my very fave I think is now out of print but called Spellright by Rice.

Since when is agreeing with someone's opinion nasty and/or hippocritical? I did not make any personal remarks.... I don't understand the problem.
AMEN to your AMEN...sm
it's like no matter what, someone has something to say! I just don't know anymore. All this negative energy could be put to such better use!

I feel exactly the same way! I also play an integral part in supporting my family, as my DS has a seasonal business and we'll be getting into the slow time soon. I am so scared - after over 10 yrs with MQ and companies that had been swallowed by MQ, this is the absolute worst time I've ever had. I truly wish I could get out of the MT industry forever at this point.
Amen Tia
I couldn't have said it better myself!!! I too live in a small town in Louisiana (Gueydan) and we have opened our Civic Center to evacuees. I agree that this will forever change our country!!!
AMEN!
Quit already

I had a T10 fracture a few years ago and it hasn't stopped me, although I will say I am more careful about things. Won't give up riding ever!! Plus, who knows, we might need our horses with the gas shortage! 
Amen. That too!

Amen!
