MS Word search function
Does anyone use this feature? I have just discovered it, but find that it works intermittently, i.e., finds a report for some names, not for others. Any ideas?
Thank you.... bw
I use Gmail, which has a huge storage capacity and search function (sm)
Which is why I like it. I don't have the emails stored on my computer, just on my Gmail. Free and I haven't even scratched the surface of my storage space yet. Of course the actual files are saved on my work computer. I have a monster of a work computer, so storage would not be an issue. I have two other computers for family use. Nobody else in this house even BREATHES near my work computer. Ha ha!
Nothing is ever sent just in an email. I zip everything up using WinZip, with password, and then attach it... For HIPPA compliance.
I do send one email a day unless I am asked to do STAT work and get it back right away, in which case separate emails are used.
Something great-- Using Google-- set to use the automatic function of completing the search
For anyone like myself who never used the automatic completion function of Google, IT IS GREAT.
I just started using it, and when I typed in like the first 2 words of something I had never heard before, like say you were typing "sphincter of", then sphincter of Oddi would be one of the choices that Google would automatically bring up.
This is so great! What a time saver. Try it.
Someone with more tech expertise can maybe say how to set the settings so the Google automatic completion comes on. sometimes it would be there and sometimes not, but I downloaded some add-on for Firefox that makes it always there. It was the "Customize Google" add-on for Firefox.
So, if you are using Firefox (Mozilla) browser, go to the add-on page (Google it) and then download the "Customize Google" add-on and then set the settings. I think this was the most useful. There is a way to set it from Google, but it kept not working somehow, the settings would go away.
Other downloads I have used-- other Firefox add-ons that I found helpful: Adblock Plus. Google Toolbar for Firefox (different than Customize Google), and Auto Copy. -- Auto Copy will automatically put whatever you select on a Web sit onto your clipboard, so you can paste it right into the document.
Hope someone finds this all helpful. Thanks for all your gals' help over the years. I have learned a lot and got a lot of tips, and so wanted to post this.
Ctrl+ F and search each page nm

You can Ctrl-F/search an ebook, but not a hardcopy, so
I actually use my ebook more than my hardcopy for that reason.
Good place to search for doctor names?

Try doing a search on your normal.dot file (sm)
If you have more than one of them, it could be conflicting and causing your Word to run slow. I rec'd an error msg about not having enough memory. My dearest friend spent hours helping me to figure this out. If that is the problem, you need to be sure to save one of them and delete the others. Before you delete anything, be sure to add a word into your autocorrects, save it, and then save that normal.dot so you do not lose all of your autocorrects. Hope this helps.
How to find doctors' names
www.ucomparehealthcare.com/drs This link gives docs names by state.
You could always try doing a system-wide search for a patient you know is on the file and maybe
nm
Do a search to see where the file is located on your hard drive.
Make note of the full location name. Next, in ES, choose Load and go to the above-noted location to find the file. Hit the Load button and you're in business.
Do google search for Switch Sound File Converter...
and follow instructions - VERY easy!
use web md to find adresses names in any state
Did a search and cannot find - can someone
repost the link to someone I can contact about housing some of the pets from Katrina? TIA
I just use the * in the template and do the search + find with alt+f.

Can't find anything on a net search. Is there an ad up? New companies

You could use your internet search engines to find
"grand rapids, MI, jobs" and get lots of hits. I'd also check monsterjobs.com for your area, and your state Dept. of Labor should also have a site where you could find jobs in your area. If you are unsure about the search engines, try google.com. It's a great tool for finding anything you could possibly want. God bless.
do a search in your area ... I was surprised to find out - sm
that in NYC, transcriptionists were getting less PER LINE than in upstate NY ... way upstate NY. At one point NYC transcriptionists were getting upwards of $0.15/line, while in other parts of the state --- the cheap part of the state, the transcriptionists were charging $0.18/line. But keep in mind that doctors will always be looking for something cheaper. So find out what others are charging in your area.
I am so frazzled I can't even find a Search window! sm
This is my first day on Edit Script and my mind has short circuited! I tried to find the Search window to no avail. Can you give me a hint??
Find a wav file, then
Right-click on it. If one of your choices in the menu is "Open with" then choose that, then select Express Scribe. Check the box that says "Always use this program to open files of this type" and you should be good to go.
I just use the * and the search and find feature; seems much faster than macros to me. nm

Sorcerers Abacus - a search should find link n/m
Hi, Lucinda. If you search on editing, you'll find SM
a lot of discussion since so many of us share your situation. Lots of people here have been editing for some time and should be able to offer answers to any questions you have afterward.
I thought I saw it here awhile back but I can't find in archive search. sm
I'd read here (I thought) about herbal antidepressants including 5-HTP and something else, but I can't find where I saw this. If anyone can be of help, I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks.
Does anyone find the search feature on this board doesn't work right?
I can't ever seem to find the old posts that I know are there by using the search feature. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me?
do a google search-were many hits and should find good info--nm

If you so a search on this board you'll find lots of info.
Basically, you've got it right. However, voice files can be large and email may reject large file attachments. Also, there's the security aspect that you didn't mention. Basically, the voice file and finished document need to be encrypted to be secure.
You said you don't have the time/didn't take the time to do the research. Lots of people have and have shared their findings time and again on this board. I, for one, am not willing to reinvent the wheel every time someone is looking for this information but doesn't want to take the time to do the legwork. No offense meant but please do take the time to educate yourself. If you really don't have the time or don't want to take that time, then be prepared to pay for that information in the form of a consultant.
Do an archive search on this board and you'll find lots of info. NM

Instead of Ctrl+Ctrl+Insert, try
Ctrl+Insert+Insert. See if that works. Mark the word-phrase that you want to insert first. Let me know.
Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you
Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.
