Can anyone give me an idea on how to copy my Instant Text onto a flash drive so I can use it on another computer if I want to. If I leave my present job using the company computer and use my own computer I would hate to have to put all of my Expanders in over again. What a pain that would be!!

IT copying thanks
Amanda your help was appreciated. It worked out great!
They are copying webpages (sm)
Found BBQ Beef sandwiches at Recipetown.com and Beef Ox sandwiches at foodloversweb.com.
copying tapes
We did that for awhile because I was trying to help a friend to start out in the business and I also gave work to other people on the internet, but it is a lot of work. Thank God, my husband did most of the work, but thanks, but no thanks.
copying tapes
it is a lot of work and you lose the quality of the tape, if that is possible with some of the doctors.
Copying data
Can anybody say how to copy a large amount of data to a DVD without having to copy one page at a time. It's a training program that I'm not going to be able to finish before the time runs out. Since I paid for it, I want to be able to have it available to study on my own. Thanks.
One time when copying and pasting
from a previous report to get a sample of the PE, I noticed that the MT had put in spaces at the end of the sentence and throughout the whole next line instead of hitting enter twice. I never said anything, but I wondered if that MT would ever get caught for that. My company pays for spaces so I'm sure that can add up if he/she does that all the time.
Copying Word Autotext? Can anyone help?
Can anyone tell me how to copy my autocorrect entries? Word help says to make it into a template but don't know how to do that. I'd appreciate any help very much!
copying macros to other comp
this is for MS word. copy normal.dot both from template folder and office folder and paste it to new computer at the same respective places, i.e. copied from template would be pasted to template folder of new computer and so on.
RE: Copying AutoCorrect entries SM
Can someone tell me how to copy AutoCorrect and AutoText entries from one computer to another - I want to put them on my laptop. Thanks!
copying word into Emdat
You should never copy straight from word into Emdat....you should make you templates in notepad...you can even copy from Word to notepad and then into Emdat...or if you have something saved in Word, you can copy and paste it into you comment box on the Emdat screen and then cut it from there into your Emdat, but if you copy something from Word into Emdat, it will usually mess it up on the client's end (I leaned that the hardway).
I hate Emdat too...especially the spellchecker, and you just can't do as much with it as you can in word...I copy all my completed transcription into Word to double check it with the Word spellchecker to make sure it caught everything, which it usually doesn't.
I hope this is helpful and made sense, but it is a crapy plantform for transcriptionists, but it must be beneficial for the doctors end, otherwise, I'm not sure why it's even used! 
Help with Copying and Printing Shorthand Dictionary
I am trying to copy and print my ShortHand Dictionary (the list of expanders) and cannot seem to find the way to do it. Can anybody help on this one. By the way, Happy National Transcription Week!
TIA.
Copying tapes to digital format
Has anyone ever attmpted to do this? I am getting a little overwhelmed with the amount of work and want to get some subcontractors and feel it would be easier to go digital rather than delivering the tapes, etc. Thanks for you help and opinions.
Also, back up your AutoText by copying Normal.dot SM
Search for normal.dot on your computer. Usually it is under Program Files (click my computer, click C: drive, click program files), Microsoft Office, click Templates and then you should see normal.dot. Right click it, click "copy" and then put on a disk so if you have to reinstall Word you have a copy of your normal.dot that has all the stuff you've saved (exams, etc.) so you won't have to go through setting them up again.
Searching for .acl (using the search program on the Start menu) will show you your AutoCorrect file. Copy this (right click, copy) and also put it on a disk.
Do these whenever you make significant additions or changes, probably about once a week. I'm using disks, but my son says that I could get a thumb drive or whatever, and I could add and delete things from it, since the space on the disk I am taking up saving these 2 files is miniscule.
Also, you should copy to disk all your documents (like samples, templates sent by your job, doctor lists--anything and everything you use to work.) Then if you have to install Word or install Word on a different computer, you can just replace the *acl on that computer and the normal.dot with your saved versions and have everything there, and also have all your templates and lists etc.
My computer crashed after deleting a TRIAL VERSION of Microsoft Office 2003. Without saved normal.dot and .acl, I'd have had to re-do all that work and all the doctor samples. You never know when an update or any old think will set off this Microsoft stuff. You can lose the stuff you need and so it is really good to have it saved on disk.
copying or transferring Extext expanders
I'm moving to a different MTSO and would like to copy all (probably 20,000) of the expanders/abbreviations I've created over the years. Hopefully, I can copy these on to a disk and transfer them to the my new MTSO, which utilizes Bayscribe. It wouldn't be much fun having to re-create these. Help, anyone?
Moving or copying IT glossary to another computer
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I recently copied one of my IT glossaries to a different computer by this method using a CD ROM disk (a jump drive would also work):
Scroll down the page where it says "moving IT to a new computer":
