Email reply vs. Post Reply
Could someone tell me how to post a message and then have someone reply by email instead of just "Post Reply." I'm pretty new to this "chat" board. But I WOULD like to say it is VERY informative and helpful. Too bad some of the companies we work for aren't as helpful as one MT is to another MT. We'd have it made!!
Try going to tools
Then options, then to the view tab. You probably have something check marked in the formatting section you don't want.
Tools and then Options looks like it may
have commands that determine this
bayscribe tools
i'm no pro, but am using bayscribe. The Expander tools i think was done separate. Try www.bayscribe.com/expander and see if the instructions there help. Also, if you are using tabs -- for the stuff to all work right, bayscribe has to be in the first tab on the left.
BayScribe tools sm
I am using the BayScribe platform and hate it. I can't seem to find a tech support person to tell me if I can load all my expansions at once from Word to transcription tools and hate having to do it one at a time. Does anyone know anything about it? If you can tell me how to do it or how to contact someone in tech support, I'd be eternally grateful! Thanks in advance!

Make sure nothing is marked under Formatting marks.
Yes - go to Tools, Options, then Edit tab
On the column on the right side, unclick "when selecting, automatically select entire word."
Mine says tools at top left - sm
Click on tools, user documents, then put date range. Click print preview button, not print button. It won't print on your printer.
If you need to have a print copy, here's what I do. I open a new document in Word. Then go back to your print preview screen with the totals, hold down ALT and click print screen, then go to Word and CTRL V.
Did you click on Tools while in Word? -
Click on Tools, Options, then Spelling and Grammar, and under dictionary, it should have "Custom". Click on Custom for the custom dictionary, apply and OK.
type a medical word incorrectly and see if it is working....
Other than that, it could be in a Stedman's folder.
Can a carpenter work without tools? (sm)
Tools are tools, whether it be for carpentry, taking blood pressure readings, or transcription. I rely on my tools to be productive and do my job efficiently. I don't think I could work without the Internet, my e-books or spellcheck. It would be like typing on a manual typewriter, ICK. Good luck with your new job, but they need to step up and get with the times.
It's on the tools/options menu
Untick the show startup task pane option on the view tab.
In Word, under the Tools section there
is a place for language set. Have you tried this??
Instead of clicking Post Quick Reply, go to the box further down on the left that says Post Reply to

delete cookies and delete temporary files. Also, you can clear your history at the same place if it's still a problem.
Yes, tools and then auto correct options.
 There are lots of tabs in there for different automatic options - you can undo them by removing the check marks. Just go thru all the different options you don't want and click on the box to remove the check marks. If you remove all check marks on most auto options, it allows you to basically straight type! Good luck!
figured it out, tools, options, format! NM

Good point about their "new tools".
By the way, I'm emailing and don't have to print them. Thanks everyone!

Macros are found under the Tools option.
However, for what you describe, you would be better off using a text expander. Auto correct is limited and macros are overkill for the task.
Word does have Line Count under Tools.
not have an add on. I use MS Word 2003 and it has a line count on the tool bar. Are you sure you know what you mean when you say there is no line counter in Tools in MS Word?
This is 2008. Why work without the correct tools. nm

deleting cookies-go to TOOLS, internet options
Once you get to internet options from TOOLS at the top of your browser, you have a radio button to delete cookies, one to delete history, one to delete online files and then offline files - that is how you delete the cookies AND the cache/memory/history.
Is that what you need to know? Hope that helped!!
Under Tools, Workspace Manager will bring up the box to change.

productivity
I purchased Shorthand and Jon Knowles program. I have about 500 shorthand entries. During downtime, I add more. I have set hours. I get up like I am going out to work. Shower, put on m/up, comb hair, etc. Make coffee/cereal, and do a few household chores before I sign in at 8:30. I do not move until I have done 25 reports. Take a 15 break, take out some for lunch, type 25 more reports. Eat lunch while I am watching a few mins. of Y/Restless. Look at email..Look at local paper online. Email buddy in Texas. On Mondays, take a few minutes to discuss D/Housewives. Type 20 more rports. Watch 15 minutes of Passions. And for the afternoon stretch, I type until I have about 80-90 reports. If my baby stays with my sister, I will type until I have 100-120 reports. During school year, I might type straight through until I have 40 reports. You just have to stay focus. A few days a month, I take an hour lunch away from home to be around grown people. I have been doing this 7 years and gross about 40,000 yr b/c I also do taxes. You have to stay focuses. I plan on making about 52,000 this year. In between I wash a load of clothes, iron, etc....plan meals. Just stay focused. I get depressed if I have a week paycheck less than a grand.

I am genuinely interested in any advice you might have. I struggle to meet minimums when work is available.

there is a great book called saving Keystrokes available through Amazon.com. It helped me alot.
Under tools/options, you can have it upload the files once the recorder is detected. I ...
have all of my accounts set up this way. It makes it much easier and all the doc has to do is plug in the recorder. I use DocShuttle with Olympus DS-2300 recorders.
Hope this helps.

Where do you usually talk about productivity?
I don't see a board for increasing productivity. I usually just post questions on the main board but think I will get more information if I post questions on the board specifically for productivity.
TIA

Productivity Board?
Where the heck did the productivity board go?
That was the best program ever, especially for productivity. sm
That was always my argument against Windows - it slowed everything down, but progress moves on and I was forced to move on.
Now, I can just only remember what a great program that was for what we do.
productivity programs
Our company is currently using Winscribe dictation system, but they did not buy the transcription side of this, which creates a database and templates and saves the work to a file.
I am looking for productivity program that works the same way that is reasonable. ADS may be one but I have no feedback on this.
Any suggestions.
