into that platform, they say it messes up the format in the original reports....so I don't do that, but I do copy the note from the Emdat platform into a word document to make sure I haven't missed anything because my Word program has a better spellchecker. 

I did not know that you could use Shorthand in there...I really don't know what that is...I had Stedman's word Expander program (can't recall the name right now), but my company said it won't work in the Emdat program.....is it call shorthand...do you have the link?  I would appreciate any information.

Thanks!

You can set up Meditch to use a Word interface, which is what i do, and then i cut and paste from my verision of Word to the Meditech version of Word. 

I have a remote desktop that i connect to and so i basically have 2 desktops running at the same time..."mine" and "theirs."  It is quick and easy to switch back between the 2 and do a cut and paste.  If you cut and paste directly into the meditech screen it is very slow and painful.  I too have found that the spellchecker and also the expansion component in Meditech is totally useless.  I use Speedtype and it will work in the version of Meditech that I am using.

If you want to know how to set up the Word Interface in Meditech just send me a pm and I can send you the instructions.  It takes just a couple of minutes to do.

The doctors I transcribe for are specialists so I do a full consultation but the doctors only want part of the consultation sent to the referring doctor so I copy and paste part of the dictation to a letter.  This very easy, but very time consuming.  Is there an easier way than to copy and paste for every letter. I am working in Word.

Alice,
Do you need to upload the job first?
Can't you just go to the Search window and from the Search window use these functions again normally?

There's nothing "wrong" with my CD, it's just that this edition (2007) doesn't have some of the functions of earlier versions.  It's not something you would find out unless you bought it and installed it.  If you don't care about those functions, go ahead and spend your money.  But for just the wild card or fuzzy search function there are other places on the web, that do not charge, and where you can minimize and cut and paste. 

This was discussed on a couple of other MT boards, with the same conclusion and disappointment as above. 

You decide.

usually works just fine ... I don't trust Word not to have eliminated "save to WP6" as an option since they have achieved near GLOBAL DOMINATION. (on my tool bar that starts with FILE, and end with HELP -- under HELP, there is WP help -- but it's not installed -- try that first-- maybe you have it)

I have my copy of Word set with save to RTF as the default (I hate Word) and have copied from that into both Bayscribe and Meditech without difficulty while copy/pasting WORD documents resulted in garbage

The tricky bits, irrc, had to do with tabs, indents bolding etc. -- (but in my case I was copying into proprietary software which didn't support those commands) --- so you will want to do a test run. I'd try RTF first -- hope you have "print preview" or a friend in the office -- good luck -- i
