Converting DSS to WAV
I heard there are free tols on the internet that can convert a DSS files to a WAV file. Does anyone know where to find a good one? I just used the DSS software that came with my handheld to do it, and it went from a 2 MB DSS file to a 35 MB WAV file, which is unwieldy. Am I supposed to now zip the WAV file? How do you do that?
Thanks a lot.
Dave
Converting to Wav
Unfortunately, wav files are incredibly large compared to their dss counterparts. 35MB for a wav file is quite common, and there is not much that can be done about that. Once converted to wav, however, you can then convert it again to either mp3 or wma (windows media audio), both of which are much smaller files and are compatible with most software out there.
Converting fractions
16/1000 = 0.016
I'd put 0.016-inch split-thickness graft.
Converting tapes to FTP - help please
Can someone help me. I'm starting to get a lot of tapes in, and I want to start getting some help and outsource some of this, but I haven't the first clue on how to convert tapes to an FTP site. I've tried talking to computer whizzes, but they lose me after a couple of seconds. So I thought I would try this avenue ... have any MTs out there been able to take mini tapes or standard cassette tapes and convert them to an FTP site to be downloaded anywhere in the country for someone else to transcribe?? I do not know the first thing about it, and I would really appreciate any input.
Please email me. Thanks! 
Converting dss.gxe files to dss
Does anyone know if this is possible? I'm trying to get my WAV pedal to play these Gear Export files. The extension is dss.gxe and I think the gxe is preventing my WAV pedal from being able to open them. Thanks in advance!
Let me know how you do with converting from Smartype to IT
I tried and failed miserably. I'd love to hear your experiences with converting to it. Maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance.
converting minutes
As a starting point, I would say maybe 10 minutes an hour. Straight transcription should be more, but, for example, where I work, we have access to the EMR and are expected to do a lot of clerical work to get the job done. Longer reports really work in our favor, but the short ones kill me production-wise. What it all will come down to in the end is how much are you able to make an hour.
Converting files to other formats
I'd like some help.
I have a file sent to me which was supposed to be sent in text format. Instead, the tech apparently sent it as an ACL file.
I'm supposed to send it on, but need to convert it first in text format. Can anybody coach me? I'm feeling rather "techno-challenged".
Thx.
I have had trouble converting to Word as well.
When I started with WP 5.1 I was inhouse, so I had some help in learning the ropes. With Word I am on my own. I have ordered some training materials, but have little time to use them. Kimberly, as far as interruptions go, it is all a trade-off. You have interruptions inhouse too. Do everything you can think of to increase production when you are working. Make a decision whether it is more important to you right now to draw a bigger paycheck or spend time with your child, and then do not beat yourself to death for your decision. No one can make this decision for you, nor should they judge you for the decision you make.
question on converting a disk - please help
I have a CD that I am supposed to transcribe. It came to me in as a .cda format, and it won't play whatsoever. Not on my laptop, not on my CD player, nothing. I see online that there are ways to convert the cda to an mp3, but I'm not sure which are hoaxes/bogus and which are for real.
Does anyone know how to do a conversion of cda to mp3? Please help. Thanks so much
Has anyone had trouble converting documents
Word 2000. These seem to be putting a .doc extension after all of my documents now. Anyone have a fix? I have an account that I can't use the .doc extension, and when I back that extension off, I get a message saying "this document may not be usable". Is this a Vista issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 in advance for any help in this OMG matter! I'm about ready to  , and I have just gotten it to grow to a length that I like.
converting voice files
Thanks for the input. I will definetely look that up on the net. I just hope it does the same thing for my voice files as it did for your MP3 files.
Converting Shorthand to AutoText
Well I have used my trial versions of Shorthand. Speedtype has not responded to my trial version request. So is there a way to convert my ShortHand dictionary so that I can use it in AutoText? Not Autocorrect but AutoText. Thanks
Converting Instant Text to SpeedType
A friend loaned me an trial version of SpeedType. I have tried to get my Instant Text glossaries to convert over and it will not separate the keyword from the entry. The SpeedType then assigned the entries keywords of 5001, 5002, etc. Is there anyway I can fix this?
Harika - marketing/converting clients
is a numbers game. You just have to keep promoting your business over and over and over again. Work on promotion for 1-2 hours per day so you don't get burned out on it.
There are many tasps out there. I see them on the banners on this board all the time. Some are basically pay as you go. The one I have is less than $100 per month with unlimited uploading and downloading. All the doc needs is a recorder or you can use a tasp with a call in system. I think the call in systems are high $ though. Nobody answer my post last week why the call in rates were so high! If you go to affiliates on the left there are tasps on there.
To me the tasps really remove the need for a middle man taking a 60% cut like the big nationals.
Converting a "tape" client to digital (sm)
Can someone point me in the direction to find information on purchasing equipment for a doctor to try digital dictation for the first time? He's currently using tapes and is interested in digital dictation.
I have express scribe and a wav pedal, I realize I'll need to get FTP set up on my webspace but I'll need to purchase him the handheld, etc. and I'm really not sure what the best setup is. Being only one person, I can't afford thousands of $ but would like to be able to offer that type of service.
Help?
Can someone help me in converting my SH entries to the Chartscript expander? SM
I thought SH would work with Chartscript, but the tech guy says that their Chartscript Expander and all the abbreviations reside on the hospital's server, and my abbreviations are on my own PC which is why it won't work. Can anybody help get around this somehow or convert my entries and how to load into Chartscript? The tech guy says he doesn't know anything about SH. Thank you.
You need an expander like Instant Text or Shorthand so you don't have to keep converting every ti

Converting C-Phone to keyboard versus foot pedal rewinding and fast-forwarding
Hi there:
I have some as-yet-undiagnosed neuropathy that began with my eighth injection of inteferon for hepatitis C. I initially had severe numbness from the waist down (felt like tourniquets on my legs) that is now controlled somewhat with high-dose Neurontin, but now I have moderate to severe pain in the lower back and buttocks if I sit for very long. I'm on a mild narcotic/analgesic, but I still have pain and discomfort long before it is time to take the next dose. I'm currently only earning about 60-80% of my normal income.
My question is this: Does anyone out there know of a way to convert the foot pedal functions of the C-phone to a keyboard, other than having an integrated system, which the hospital I work for does not have?
There must be some way for handicapped people, like those in a wheelchair, to do medical transcription without the use of a foot pedal, but my guess is that you would have to do away with the Dictaphone dication system completely, which I doubt my employer would do unless I threatened some sort of legal action.
Any info on converting a dictaphone 2-prong headset adaptor? I need to find a noise cancelling head
If anyone knows where I can find this, please let me know. thanks
Converting voice files to digital files
I have a Voice Solutions dictation system that will happily convert DS4000 voice files to digital when they are downloaded (wave files). However, it will not recognize any other files for conversion. I had a physician download .WAM files from his DS-30 and my dictation system would not convert it. Anyone have any suggestions? I would greatly appreciate any input.
Thanks!!!
