She's asking for *keyboard* shortcuts, not mouse shortcuts. Huge difference. nm

i've been told ...
I dunno much about this neither -- I just do what I'm told. :/ I use a VPN connection. when I want to get tech help from the online system, I have to have my wireless laptop hard wired to be connected. so I was told. so that's what I do. it seems that might be a clue in the puzzle, but I can't take it any further. :)

I've told many accounts . . .
I have no problem with people who do it for less - they know what their work is worth, and clients have come to agree with me and want to come back. It cost them!
I've been told to use them in one account
and then another account I've been told I use too many.... 
So much for trying to be perfect... 
I've always been told to put 2. Even if not paid for - sm
2, since I have to proof-read everything before sending out, and 1 space makes it harder to read, I put 2 for my own ease of editing, in addition to it just looking better and more professional with 2.
I've been told by recruiters and HR people that
they've never met anyone who scored 100% before. I did! Poor little uneducated lifeguard me. No little MT certificate. Oh, no!
You should've just told the person who gave
that you took the clothes you couldn't use to Goodwill and that your other friend bought them at Goodwill. Nothing she could do about that one!!! She'd have to tell Goodwill not to sell stuff to her and you know that wouldn't fly.
You did the right thing, though, and I probably would've done the same. This way you can continue to be friends with both without getting in the middle of things or causing hard feelings. :)
Thanks. I've told the same things to my kids about
Teasers in school. They just do it because they have no life, no self-esteem and they just try and feed off the misery of others or try to make themselves look better than everyone else.
It's very sad and so pathetic, but it carries on with these types through what is supposed to be adulthood.
I've always been told to put those in even when using 'the patient' for everything

Thanks! I've been told Infinity works with (sm)
the new platform I will be working on, I just needed to make sure it would work with my Start-Stop. I really did not want to have to get a new media player as well. Thanks again!
I've been told most errors are connection sm
related and media player related. This is for Windows XP. Remove all media players except the Windows media player. Wordclient conflicts with other media players. Also remove any of those browser toolbars like Yahoo. Go into your Control Panel Add or Remove Programs to find them and remove them through the control panel. Then, go to start-run-msconfig and click on the tab marked startup. Uncheck all the boxes except for your virus protection and click okay then restart. I had to do that to get rid of the errors and now I go in once a week to make sure the settings stay. I seldom have a problem now, maybe once or twice a week, not 10 times a day like I did before.
I've told about 100 people total. THEY DON'T

Don't expect communication from anyone, we are only little "peons."
I use EXText with my current job and I've used at a couple of other jobs I've had. I've ne
used DocQscribe, but I have used Meditech, Cerner, Vianeta, the Precyse platform (I can't remember the name), Dolbey, and Lanier platform I think was called Cequence (?).
Out of all the different platforms I have typed on, I have liked EXText the best. In my opinion, it's very user friendly, easy to learn, and I really like ESP which is the built in abbreviation expander. Plus it is very easy to create your own normals which I love. My fingers literally never leave the keyboard because there are macro keys for everything. You can use your mouse if you prefer or learn the function macros. I love it. I think I'm more productive on EXText than with any other platform.
I use ShortCuts and like it.

I use shortcuts
shortcuts for windows. much faster and costs less. if you put a whole report in it, it will take a few seconds too spill out, but still faster than shorthand.
shortcuts
I use shortcuts to the max but what do you do if the doctor dictates in abbreviations? For example continually says CHF for congestive heart failure, etc. Do you type the abbrev? or spell it out?
SHORTCUTS
I, too, don't know what shortcuts for Windows are. Can someone help me?
Shortcuts
I am a longtime MT but have just converted to employee status (am so sick of the tax thing). Anyway I have never really used a lot of shortcuts (just the Autocorrect in Word) but now that I have to do more lines to make the same amt of money I need some tips on creating shortcuts so I can produce more lines an hour. Thanks ladies (and gents!)
No, just using shortcuts
with Auto Correct. We have a few doctors who have their own "normals", but 99% straight typing, proofing as I go.
Shortcuts?
Ok, I can try. Tell me step-by-step how I would do this. Nothing ventured..... Thanks
Re: Shortcuts
Hi mt'er -
I am curious as to why you would need a book on shortcuts or macros. Everybody is different, thinks different, types certain keys with ease more than others, etc. You have to do what works for YOU. I've been an MT for 15 years or so and I add shortcuts to AutoCorrect daily. For me, if I type the first three letters or consonants of a word I remember it easily. For a phrsae such as "heart and mediastinal contours are within normal limits" I'd use "ham". "Please see discussion above" = "pda", etc. Some doctors dictate the same thing for normal exams. I use the doctor's first three letters of their last name then the first few letters of whatever exam they are dictating. Becoming proficient at using macros and shortcuts is seeing what works for the way you think and type. Make shortcuts for EVERYTHING! "There is" - "ths", "are" = "rr" (it's easier/quicker to type two identical letters rather than take your fingers off a key. For shortcuts that are pleurals, I use the last letter twice: "demonstrate" = "dem", "demonstrates" = "demm". The less you move your fingers off the keys, the faster you will go. The more you use your techniques, the easier it becomes for you to develop your own shortcuts with your own technique that is easy for you to remember. Macro every month of the year for dates, macro the year "2007", whatever can be turned into less Keystrokes is beneficial.
Save your hard-earned $$ and your time and work out a system for YOU!
shortcuts sm
I know how you feel, but unfortunately you must go by the rules of whomever is paying you or the client of theirs. I have had clients that marked my reports incorrect when using the BOS, they want it their way or the highway. Don't take it personally, just go along to get alone. Been there, done it, hate it!!
I use WP5.1 with XP and Shortcuts
and so I can use the expansions i saved in Shortcuts for DOS in WP5.1 with XP but I cannot access Shortcuts nor can I add things to Shortcuts via XP (unless I get the Shortcuts for XP) and I cannot access MACROS but can use the MACROS in WP5.1 that I saved for a long long time....
hope you all understand my post....I use WP5.1 with Shortcuts for DOS in WIN XP but cannot add anything to Shortcuts nor add anything to my WP5.1 macros but can use all I saved prior to going on XP last year. It all works out....
I have my shortcuts set up
as 1y, 2y, 3y, all the way up to 100, where it expands to 1-year-old for 1y. I know most don't do that, but it got around the space problem you are talking about.
Anyone tried these shortcuts?
Has anyone ever set up a keyboard shortcut system like this one at this website http://medicaltranscriptionexpandproductive.blogspot.com/ ? This person is using each key on the keyboard for commonly used words. Is this productive?
Tried using those shortcuts
gave up and I can make money with VR.
You can try ShortCuts for free....sm

Is there a way to transfer shortcuts...
from Word and Wordperfect to Shorthand. I sure hope, it would save SO much time.
Thanks all!

build your shortcuts to the max
it's ALL about your shortcuts. you have to shorten every word, phrase, not just medical ones, regular English too, assuming you transcribe for someone who SPEAKS English!!
I have been using the same shortcut program for 10+ years and I STILL add things to it almost daily. 1st rule is if the shortcut doesn't just pop in your head, keep typing and don't think about it. it has to come to you automatically. then you have to be creative. example - I have this one doc who constantly says "once this was done" so I have that in as OTWD. "The patient tolerated the procedure well" is PATOL. I have things like ADP for adenopathy, then you have to expand that on further to be LADP for lymphadenopathy, AADP for axillary adenopathy, etc. if you have one doc who says some phrase constantly, even if it is only one doc, if you type him every day, make it a shortcut. I have typed in "codes" for so long they are drilled in my brain. I'll look at a license plate and it will say RSD456, my brain says "reflex sympathetic dystrophy." the longer you use it the bigger it will get and pretty soon you're typing all shortcuts and not much else.
Meditech shortcuts
Use Shorthand9, I think.... I used it with Meditech all of the time for all of my shortcut needs.
ShortCuts for Windows........
AutoCorrect shortcuts
I work at a hospital and my main doctor "Ah's" a lot and changes her mind and has no particular format. She just dictates and I have to put where it belongs. We get along fantastic, but I am lucky is I get 120-150 lph. With Psychiatry, I can get 200. However, I have an account on the side in Psychiatry where he speaks very fast and I can keep up so it comes out to about 300. I would be interested in getting some ideas on more shortcuts - as I am sure everyone would if someone would like to share them with us. Do you have a printed list? Or where did you come up with these? Any help is appreciated. TIA.
funny shortcuts
I know there are so many different ways to save Keystrokes and then there are those that "just seem to make sense" but don't necessarily follow any particular rule. One of my favorites is using the first two letters of each word. It strikes me funny sometimes at some of the combinations that result this way. I think two of my funniest are boob for bowel obstruction and pusy for pubic symphysis. Any others that you have? I'm looking for humor this Monday.
if you are on XP, Shortcuts For Windows
Keyboard shortcuts in IT
Just be aware that Alt/ puts Instant Text into full layout and when you are in full layout, Instant Text expands in the Editor window of the IT program, and not in the word-processor you may be using.
Another keyboard shortcut like Alt- minimizes Instant Text and you don't see the advisories anymore. However, you stay linked and IT would still expand.
Also, make sure you don't have another Expander running at the same time.
making shortcuts. sm
click on START - ALL PROGRAMS - Right click on program you want on desktop (make sure it is the program, not just the folder - if it has an arrow, keep clicking until you get to the actual program) After you right click on it, select SEND TO, then click on DESKTOP (create shortcut).
Keyboard shortcuts
Google MSWord keyboard shortcuts and there you go. Save it to your desktop. There are shortcuts for Word 2002 and 2003.
You can do that with any keyboard if you know the shortcuts.
I love my Logitech cordless, but it's the keyboard shortcuts that keep you from using the mouse, not the keyboard itself. Am I misunderstanding your question?
Keyboard shortcuts
I am new to MT and am lucky enough to have a job where I can learn as I go. I wanted to see if someone can tell me some of the keyboard shortcuts, like ctrl + B for bold, or function key information so that I can use the keyboard more and my mouse less.
Thanks for your help!
New MT in Ohio 
ExText shortcuts
Does anyone know a shortcut to get to AutoCorrect? So far, all I've been able to do is stop and point my mouse and click on the icon on the tool bar, which really slows me down. I'm tring to put more abbreviations in there, as my word Expander is getting pretty full.
Radnet F9 shortcuts
Does anyone know how to add to the shortcuts in RadNet F9.
