It requires a lot more power than most machines have with Windows XP.

I have Vista and Word 2007..

and fortunately there is no conflict with either at the company I work for.  I know how you feel though; knowing what I know now I would not have "upgraded" from XP or Word 2003 when I got my new computer.  Good luck.


Word 97 thru 2007 can be run on vista.

I was told not until LATE 2007
will escription be able to run with Vista. My boss said not to go buy a new computer with Vista and expect to be able to work escription.
How did you get Office 2007 when it has only --sm
been released to businesses and is not available to the general public yet?? just curious. (wish I had it)
$400 for Office 2007?
Why so expensive? I cannot afford to buy this. Any suggestions? I need to upgrade but at that price I simply cannot afford to take the job.
OOPS! I meant QLDB 2007 (please read above)

Spellex already supports Office 2007
I just recently got a new computer and it came preloaded with Vista and Office 2007. I went to Spellex's website and they had the Office 2007 version already available and I believe it was $40 for the upgrade for current customers. Hope this helps :)!!
Office 2003 versus 2007

Hi,


I am still working in Office 2003 but have been considering Office 2007.  Is anyone using this?  Do you like it?  Do you know if programs like Shorthand, Abacus, and other transcription programs work with it?  Is it possible to have Office 2003 and Office 2007 on the same computer without interfering with the one another??


so sorry... I meant Vista.

this is a monday morning for sure. 


Does Anyone Know of A Good Medical Spell Checker For Office 2007?
Hello all! I am new to these boards :) . My husband bought me a new computer with office 2007 installed on it for Christmas :). I was curious if anyone knew of a good medical spell check for Office 2007. Thanks In Advance!!!
I have to buy a new puter and was told by employer NOT to get Vista.

I was told to contact escription before going to Vista.
I still have XP though.
my son is a computer grad and told me not to get vista
on my new lap top.  i ordered direct from Toshiba with windows XP. 
I have Vista and am running Office 2003 on it just fine.
I haven't used Word 2007 even though I have it, just because I haven't been able to buy Stedman's for Word 2007 yet.
what I meant was that I have had small checks before, and have been told...
they do not take out the taxes on such a small amount 'earned' as you say, which was only $14. 

my boyfriend got a check for under $30 for something or other, and was told they would not take the taxes out because they thought he could use the money.  we all get taxed at the end of the year...that I do know...whether it comes out in the paycheck or not.  MQ still reports how much one earns, I just do not understand why they had to take them out on such a small amount...

does anyone know what I mean?   why would they take it out on a check for $14, and is that a law or up to them to do it?

thank you.
FYI Blew motherboard. Need new puter. Was told not to get Vista as not compatible with work program

I use Vista with Office 2003 Student/Teacher edition. nm
I use Vista with Office 2003 Student/Teacher edition.
See link inside for versions of Office that are supported on Vista
.
I was told by my office that it has
been down since 9:30.
has anyone's office told them the reason behind eliminating
the editing count and just putting all our line counts under transcription?  are we still going to take a pay cut for asr?  has any mqmt taken a pay cut on asr?
My editor did the same - told the doc that she knew what the office
staff had for lunch, which their social schedules were for the next 48 hours but did not know what he had dictated on his tape. Ha!

Have most people had good luck with their MQ office closing and moving to the regional office. Have
things gotten better or worse for you.
Yes, I lost mine. I upgraded the Office 2000 package to Office 2003. sm
I have over 2000 autocorrect entries and lost them all as well as my supplemental dictionary for my Stedman's spellcheck. Lots of grief!

Maybe you will be lucky and not lose anything. Good luck to you.
Might be able to rent one from an office supply or office machine repair shop

Office politics. That is why I enjoy working at home. In the office,
people are in other people business. Just mind your own business.
I told you once, I told you twice, eTransPlus is going down the drain!
Don't expect communication from anyone, we are only little "peons."
Can anyone suggest an office in MQ that is not run like this Amherst office. They are absolutely
pathetic. I wonder how many other MTs are in that office in the same situation.
Just DQS from my office was transferred and the rest are getting on DQS before the office closes.

Pay kids work around office, renovate office.

A sad $11,000 for 2007, but I need to

...this is my 2nd year transcribing.  I am really going to try to pick up the pace and the money in 2008 and am looking into getting my own accounts.  If I don't do something I will have to get another job in addition to transcription. I worked for a doctor's office when I first started out making $14.00/hour, which in hindsight was pretty good for a beginner.  I guess it just takes some people longer to get in gear.  Things are really clicking for me now, and I can now fly through dictators that I used to find extremely difficult, so there's a ray of hope!  I have never made more than $15,000 per year my entire life, and I've been working since I was 14 years old - it's time darn it!


CMT since 2007 (sm)
It's not that bad. The transcription portion is not difficult. There is a CMT prep book that has much harder practice dictations in it than the test will give you. You won't get a foot pedal in the test, but you only have short snippets to transcribe.

However, the first part of the test is the multiple choice part, and that was the part I found much more difficult than I anticipated.

As far as studying for it, I personally think working is the best way to study for it. There is a lot less emphasis on the BOS rules in the CMT test than I anticipated as well. I found it to be a transcription and knowledge test, not a memorization of the endless rules in the BOS.

Just go register for it and take it. Let us know what happens!

Word 2007 is the best
I used office 2003 pro since it came out and hated it. It was so slow. I just got the new office 2007 and it is MUCH better than any other version of office.
I have QLDB 2007

there is not much difference between that and 2006.  the big difference between 05 and 06 was the search function.  06 would not let you search starting with an asterisk for a wildcard.  07 is the same.  but i just tried searching for part of a word without a wildcard and it brought up words that had that part in the middle.  so it seems you do not need the asterisk at the beginning of a search.


to be honest, i rarely use my electronic references.  i mostly use the net and sometimes will double check a finding with an electronic ref. 


i update my references on CD for the tax credit.  and as a backup.

Thanks for the info!
QL DRUG REF 2007 . . . WHAT DO YOU USE INSTEAD

I have always used Stedman's QL electronic drug search reference material.  I loaded my 2007 and discovered that they have built in something called a Launch Ready Reference Bookshelf  that completely changes the way the drug reference works now.  One thing that is missing is the fuzzy search, which I have always loved and used tremendously.  I called Tech Support at Lippincott and at Stedman's and they both tell me that it is no longer part of the program and this new Bookshelf is going to be linked to all of their electronic products -- hence no fuzzy search.  So, my question is, what is everyone else using.  I have the Saunder's Pharmaceutical Word Book 2007 and I hate it as well, it takes too long to load and uses too much RAM to leave loaded. 


Hope someone else has found an answer. 


Word 2007

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. 


Word 2007

Has anyone had any issues; good, bad or indifferent, on Word 2007.


Thanks
