My Word 2002 shows plus or minus symbols in outline view.
Are you sure you're in outline view?
Word document
Here is what I do . . . sort of the same thing. I sometimes work on temp jobs and if I think I know how the client wants something, but I am not 100% sure I highlight the area. The MTSO will then return my work -- if she makes a change she will highlight so I can find it easily and if what I did was okay she simply will remove the highlighted area and the report is good to go on to the doctor. It is very simple to highlight an area and just as easy to remove it. It won't exactly show what your MT did wrong, but the MT will know that you changed something that is hightlighted and see the correct way of typing. If she has her original she can match your highlighted area with her original to compare.

I have sent really large Word files as an attachment even using dial-up.
Can someone please tell me how to see document codes in Word?..nm

Open up a word document to use as a
template. Do view header. Go into th e header of your word document. Go back to your scanned document, highlight the pic and right click to copy. Then go back to your word document that you created and paste into the header. Do the same if there is a footer. Hope this helps.
I have a Word document question.
If anyone can help that would be great. I have header and footer boxes that are really large, so now they are throwing off my already existing templates. When I went for help in Word, it tells me how to make them smaller, but they just keep going back to the regular size. Is there a way to change this across the board for all of my preexisting word documents?
You should have no problem..just save your document in Word. A lot of our MTs use WP 10 (sm)
and as long as they save it as a Word document it pulls up fine in Word for the client.
exophrenic..can't document this word but I know it means outside the kidney..sm
Is it spelled right? Thanks.
Is there any way to type in microsoft word and then get the document into wordperfect?

I get it. But in return for supporting the small business the poor folk get nothing in return.
I understand why you don't shop at Walmart. You support those who support you but it doesn't work that way for me. I can go to an independent shop and by a dishwasher, pay lots more for it and get nothing in return to supplement my support of their small business. Same for all the poor folk who are shopping in Walmart trying to stretch a paycheck. I am glad Walmart exists for those folks.
open a word document, under help type in auto text--sm
and you can learn how to create, save, delete, edit entries.
Anyone know how I can take addresses from a Word document and transfer them to mailing labels?
I have several hundred typed out, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to turn it into a mailing list. I have downloaded Avrey Wizard, but when I try to do it, it asks me about field delimiters and no matter what I pick it doesn't work. Maybe there is a simpler way??
Thanks!
In Word, I think you have to turn it off under one of the settings in View. nm

You don't necessarily to turn off the AutoCorrect of Word.....
I left mine on and when the ESP got full, started putting stuff in the AutoCorrect. There is a setting that you have to make to allow the AutoCorrect to work as well (in "Preferences") but I needed the extra space, took out some of the idiotic things in the AutoCorrect, and replaced them with abbreviations. It works GREAT!
If you have Word Perfect, it is easy. Just open any document, default the font and margins and do a
You can do a comparrison on gross lines versus 65 character line count by opening any document you have and counting lines both ways.
I have almost always been paid the gross line and still am right now. No matter what the margins or font is, all documents are converted to 1 inch margins and 12 Courier font. You do not count blank lines. I make an average of 0.08 a gross line, which the way I am paid would average out to about 11-12 cents a 65 character line.
Hope this helps!
How to Turn Off that Grating "Ding" at end of MS Word Spellcheck
Hi,
Does anyone know how to turn off that ding that sounds when you finish the spellcheck in Word? The only thing I found was in Tools-Options-General, there is a "Provide Feedback with Sound" box, but that is already unchecked in mine (to the "no sound" option), but still I get the ding.
Not a major issue, but still pretty annoying, especially when you need to turn the volume up to hear a soft dictator...then the ding can blow you out of the water!
Thanks,
Dave
Just turn it off and wait for the electricity to dissipate and then clean it and turn it back on. nm

Symbols HELP
I accidentally turned on my symbols for spaces, tabs, returns, etc. in Word. Anybody know who I can turn these off?????
Symbols HELP
Try the paragraph mark in standard toolbar next to zoom icon.
Symbols
Go to toolbar, insert/symbols, the symbol panel comes up, is that what you mean?
At ease, soldier! This isn't a medical document. I repeat, this isn't a medical document. nm

Turn down such low low offers, turn industry around. sm
The way to figure is how many lines an hour do you do. There are 13 lines characters in a line (65 line length)
So say you TRY to average 4 pages an hour say 34 lines a page equal 139 lines, times your line rate.
139 X 4 cents a line = $5.56 an hour
and what if you don't do 4 pages even less.
MTing hourly hourly output is not very predictablel, so ya never know and predict what you can put out each hour.
THE WAY TO TURN THE INDUSTRY AROUND IS TO SPEAK UP, SAY 'NO' THAT IS TOO LOW AND GIVE SHORT EXAMPLE.
If the MTs continue to accept, that is what the going rate will continue to be. Yes, Yes, it will. Just keep looking. Email for general lowest to highest line rate prior to testing and resume, just say it saves time on both sides and it DOES. Why waste time. Soon, the message will get out there.
Me too. He's absolutely right about the symbols
The Christmas tree, the yule logs, etc. all originated with the ancient pagan holiday of winter solstice. It wasn't until after Constantine in 300 a.d. that they started being accepted as Christian. I think the author went a little overboard towards the end of the article, but the last sentence was just a play on Tiny Tim's words "God bless them everyone." Only his play on words accurately describes the attitudes of many professed Christians when anyone dares to point out that all of the so-called Christmas symbols were avoided by the earliest Christians. I am a Christian, but I don't celebrate Christmas, and usually when I mention that, the attitude that I get from the Christians that do celebrate it is downright scary sometimes. So I can understand fully the sentiment the author of the article had when he used the play on Tiny Tim's words. In fact, once when trying to discuss it, I was even told "oh, go to ----." Not much different than the opposite of "bless" that the author used in his last sentence.
symbols on job board?
Don't mean to appear dumb, but when looking at the job seekers board, what does a fire flame next to the post mean?
I think there should be a post by the administrator as to what those symbols mean
because we all wonder the same thing when we are new to this site.
Turn off puter, wait a min, turn on with delete key pressed down, then hit delete key NUMEROUS times

Microsoft Symbols short cut Keyboard Sheet
Hi. Does anyone have or know where I can find a Microsoft Symbols Keyboard short cut list for various symbols including degree, Greek letters, etc. I know how to do it the slow way but I know they make keyboard shortcut lists. Any help would be appreciated.
Return it
Return the thing before your thumbs fall off.
You could try prying off the space bar and cleaning underneath it - maybe something is stuck under there. I have found four-course meals under mine. Otherwise, an exchange or return is probably your best bet.
See Main Board for a discussion on keyboards if you are interested.
I would definitely return it and have them

as an IC how do you get ANY RETURN?
ive been an IC for 10 years and only ONE TIME got a return, which was the bush tax cut of $600.00
I never used to pay quarterleys and would get hit with a huge amount in April... and then two years ago owed like 10K in back taxes, (apparently hadn't paid enough) putting me into credit card debt, which i never had before, so disappointing.
I'd be careful if i were you!
Now I take 30% of EVERY paycheck and pay quarterleys, just not online. i need to figure that one out
LOA with return to job
Your job should be safe. You would be eligible for FMLA at the very least, I think. Nothing works better for what you are describing than time off. I had to take 4 weeks off earlier this year due to an injury, and my mind needed the rest. It is so much better now that I'm back. A mental break never hurt anyone.
Would you return to MT if.....
Here is the gist of my question. I stopped working as a MT to homeschool my children and be a stay-at-home mom. Hubby said I had enough to do just by schooling them so I quit my career. My youngest will be done in three years. I will be around 50 years old at that time....Would you go back to school or would you come back to MT? Is it worth it? I know it has started paying less, but honestly, it was paying less back then...can we say MQ and manipulated line counts here.....
I am kicking around the idea of going after a degree in something ? Honestly, I never knew who or what I wanted to be in this life. I just kind of fell into transcription. But I am also looking at I know transcription very well....it really doesn't sound like it has changed a whole lot since the time I left, and do I really want to be going to 'school' at 50 years of age??? ![](https://forum.mtstars.com/smileys/sowhat.gif)
I would appreciate your advice, insight, wisdom of life learning experiences, etc.
Thank you.
on return to MT
If you don't need to work, stay home. Travel. Do your family tree. I would give anything right now if I could stay home and not work. I would love to be able to just putter around my house, fixing things and repairing things, working in the yard. I hate being an MT and only do it to pay my mortgage and provide food. I hate transcribing so many doctors who don't really even know what they are talking about half the time and all the unnecessary tests they run when if they would use clinical judgement, they would not waste so much money and running up patient's bills. But of course that is the objective, running all the tests and as many tests as possible to keep the hospital in business. But if you should not have insurance, no matter how long you have been going to a doctor, they drop you like a hot potato. The whole health care business makes me sick.
Carriage return
Thanks, Dixie. I couldn't even remember what the "thingy" was called. LOL Talk about rhythm...click, click, click, fling the thingy, click, click, click...never missing a beat. And you're right, that purple stuff would gag a magot! How the HECK did we do it. This has been a fun thread. One can only wonder what stories the younger generation will have to tell when they're the "seniors." One thing I can't figure....I used to work 6 days a week, carried cloth diapers to the washateria, didn't have a dishwasher, no a/c, etc. etc and STILL seems like I had more hours in my 24 hour day than I have now. What gives?
I think you have a return programmed
after the last word in shorthand. Always make sure your cursor is at the end of the last character in your expanded term and it will not do that.
I did MT before becoming a nurse, return afterwards. sm
Hated nursing. It wasn't all that I thought it would be. I found I could make more being an MT and with a heckuva lot less stress and backbreaking labor.
Return receipt sm
Years ago (many) I would have put the address, either block form to the left or tab to the middle for semi-block form and under the SUBJECT: or RE: line, I would have put Certified Mail No. 112233 or Registered mail # 112233 and then "return receipt requested" on that same line or underneath. If there is no subject, put it before the salutation. Today, I probably would put it under the initials at the bottom of the letter, in block form, just because I would like the appearance of it better, i.e.,
Sincerely yours,
(4 spaces)
Melissa M. Anonymous
MAM (or the dictator's initials and then yours)
Sent via certified mail #112233 - 3/9/06, return receipt requested.
I don't think it really matters. If you don't have a # yet, just put "Sent via certfied mail 3/9/06, return receipt requested." Don't take my word for it though, unless you don't find any samples, this is just my 2 cents.

When I return my work to the doc - sm
I send them a list of which reports had a blank, what the blank was (i.e. Dr. name I could not locate or a drug name usually); and also a list of what patients on the list did not have dictations. That is it. The ball is in their court then.
Look at last year tax return
If you worked last year look at your tax return and see how much taxes you had to pay based on what you made. Compare wages to this year and if they are about the same you will know how much to withhold or put aside. If your husband works, have him over withold an extra amount or if you work as an employee at another job have them overwithold. Be sure to take off your deductions to get your NET income and not your gross. Good luck.
If you end up not using the adapter, return it to

They held my return
They held my return as the name on the W2 did not match my SS#. Had to change it. Also with all of the problems with illegals it might even be tighter now. Good luck, why don't you just change it???
I did the tax return myself and was more concerned (sm)
about who and how many people dealt with my return at the IRS department.
oh I love it...return the 2cents
and i guarantee you it will just botch the heck out of their accounting, they won't know where to post it, probably send it back to you, you back to them and on and on and probably cost them close to 100 bucks in postage, reissuance, payroll for the geeks in accounting, all to try to resolve it.
Don't you just love it when MQ expects the MT's to return
calls to their Supes LONG DISTANCE on OUR PHONE BILL -- but they are stuffing the money in their pockets by not providing Supes with 800 #'s !
That just does not seem fair for the MQ MT to have to make long distance calls on OUR PHONE BILLS. I have no need to call my supe, but she occasionally leaves a "call-back" for me to call her long distance !
They should be paying for the return of the equipment - sm
When I worked for Diskriter, they made a call to UPS to have the equipment picked up and sent back to them in Pittsburgh. All I had to do was box it up.
Do not let them bully you or threaten you by holding your check until they get their equipment back.
I had to pay to return equipment for two jobs.
Spheris was the only one that sent someone to pick up their equipment.
