Yes - if you have a mouse with a roller wheel you can hold down the control key on your keyboard the
or roll the mouse wheel backwards to decrease print size. This will also work on some web pages. Really great.
press Control and at the same time turn tthe wheel on your mouse..nm

Foot pedal control/knee control? (sm)
My sewing machine has a knee control built into the side of the cabinet and I find this very comfortable. I would like to somehow do the same with foot pedal I use for transcription. Can figure out how to mount it, but having trouble adjusting it so the 3 pedals are not an issue. ANyone done this or have any input?
Foot pedal control/knee control
Though I have not had experience with this type of modification, I have repaired numerous footpedals and have some information that may be helpful. Generally, the footpedal is comprised of the primary circuit board, the wiring to the computer, and the three switches for play, rewind, and fast forward. These switches are easily removed from the pedal with a screwdriver. With basic soldering, you can lengthen the wiring to each switch, or even replace them with different switches you can get at a local electronics store. With a little bit of creative engineering, you could mount some knee -controllable switches that could control the footpedal.
I use Control N to end a job - Control T is for when viewing an old report
Don't know what you are talking about
Why re-invent the wheel?
There are at least three excellent schools for medical transcription that are available to anyone who wants to become an MT. They are listed under the SCHOOLS category for this website - M-Tec, Andrews, and CareerStep. When you need to hire someone, you can contact the schools for their graduates and then you won't have to train your employees. And whenever anyone asks you about how to become an MT, refer them to those schools. Then we'll all get what we need - a larger pool of well-trained American MTs.
You need to find a new wheel.
You have too many broken spokes.
No need to reinvent the wheel. nm

Better than that, the wheel eraser with the little brush. nm

Yes, it's microwave popcorn - best invention since the wheel! - nm
Your are wrong again: I would never hire a 'squeaky wheel',,,nm

If for some reason it stays permanent they do make a contraption that you put the dog in with wheel
So the dog still uses its front legs but the wheels in the back act as the dogs "legs" and it can still get around and be mobile, kind of like a dog wheelchair so to speak. I hope he feels better this morning.

Keyboard and mouse. Is there such a thing as a keyboard that has a mouse on the actual keyboard?

DQS and using the mouse
You know, maybe the loss of lines is because with DQS you have to use the mouse so much. I took have noticed since I switched to DQS that my lines are down. With the last program I used, I hardly ever had to use my mouse.
Not using mouse with DQS?
Really? How do you do that? Like when you have to fill in demographics and go from screen to screen? Or in the body of the report to go from paragraph to paragraph? Tell, me, please..cause I sure would like to find a faster way as the mouse has slowed me down. Thanks for any info you can give me!
Mouse
I'm really technologically deprived, so forgive me. I was wondering if anyone knew the typical "life" of a mouse? I just replaced mine about 6-10 months ago, and it's starting to go out already. It's like the little ball thing (see my tech terms?) isn't working, and it's a pain to try to get the cursor to move. The one before I had for about 5 years, and before that, it was eons. Did I get a bad deal, or is this average? Thanks for any help! (I use it daily, working, if that helps determine the life expectancy!)
Same with me, I still use the mouse. SM
BTW, tell me how you do so many lines! I used to be a good producer back in the day when I did a lot of OP notes, but now I'm lucky to do 1500 lines in a day.

I don't have CT and I'm on straight transcription, but thanks to a recommendation here on the board I bought an Evoluent mouse and I can really feel a difference in my wrist when I use it. Maybe that would help you somewhat?????
Mouse gone.
Check your settings on your mouse. Go through the Control Panel, click on "mouse", click on the tab "Pointer Options", make sure the box that says "Hide pointer while typing" isn't checked.
Mouse
Glad it worked!
Use your mouse
Just use your mouse and keep clicking on the icon. If not, just reboot your machine. That sounds like a strange problem.
Best not to let other people mess with your work PC.
Mouse
I use the mouse that has the rollerball on it. I never have to move the whole mouse. I love it and will not use anything else. Cost about $30 I think. I have had it for 3 years now. You don't even need a mouse pad. I got it at Office Max. Also, when I type. I rest my hands on my pull out keyboard drawer and only move my finges. I have been typing over 20 years, and I have never had any wrist pain. Guess I am just lucky.
I never use my mouse with DQS unless I split a job

I tried a wireless mouse
It was too loosy goosy. The cursor was all over the place. I returned mine.
I need a "shelf" for my mouse.
to hook it up over my calculator pad on my keyboard. This would be probably metal or hard plastic. Had one at the hospital and so I know someone carries them; I just do not know what they are called.
I am the person with the tennis elbow-type symptoms. Thanks for the tip on track ball mouse. Picked up a Logitech model for 20.00 yesterday at Staples. They were on sale.
Thanks!
why use a mouse at all? It does nothing but slow you down.
I have one, a mouse shelf. I got it from one of those

mouse pedal
   Would that not be great.
This one seems to only do the mouse click
part, and doesn't let you move the mouse. It says you can use one pedal for the mouse click, one instead of the ALT key, and one for the CTRL key. So you would still have to take your hand off the keyboard to move the darned mouse. At least that's the way I read it.
Monitors and Mouse
I have two flat panel monitors side by side - connected to each other - one is a 21", the other a 19".. its like having one hugh gigantic TV screen - you can drag from one monitor to the other, you can have your email up and running on one, your work on one, etc......watching the work upload as you continue along your merry way. They are both from Dell, one is a Dell Brand, the other one is a Planar. I think its worth the investment, NO MORE GLARE and so easy on your eyes versus the big ole clunkers. and a 15" flat panel is exactly the same viewing as one of those big old 17-19" cluunkers that take up so much space.
Regarding wireless mouse/keyboard, i type non-stop almost 12 hours a day and I rarely have to replace the batteries - I use the Microsoft ergonomic wireless keyboard/mouse.
My poor mouse...
I'm surprised it's still going, as much as I use it out of frustration. I find myself grabbing it and patting it VERY HARD on the pad over and over and over again, all while saying something to the tune of, "WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?"
Look at using a different keyboard and/or mouse. nm

Never use the mouse, only hot keys. nm

Did you try with a right mouse click instead

Ergonomic mouse?
I have a Microsoft split keyboard, that helps my wrists, but I'm noticing that when I use my mouse a lot (which sometimes is half of my day), my elbow and forearm are getting sore.
Has anyone had this problem with a mouse (looked it up, and it's called "mouse elbow" similar to tennis elbow). If so, what was/is your solution? Looking at new keyboard with a built in keypad, and/or a different mouse or something, and wondered what anyone else has done.
Thanks!
Yes, but I have to use the mouse. But....am learning (sm)
more shortcut keys as I type!! Thanks!
Ergo mouse. sm
Does anyone know of a mouse that will reduce the squeeze-type action required and also the scrolling action? If so, I need to get it ASAP. Thanks.
Never used mouse before escription
and now useit constantly. I do not use the keys much except straight typing so clue me in as to why you would not use the mouse? I was started off on escription that way
