I used Short Keys, not Short hand for Bayscribe, it worked fine.

Ditto, short ERs or short OPs....short anything! sm
And I especially don't like long OPs, they are the most boring for me, and the doctors pause a lot cause they have to think more. I just want to be done with it! Next!!! ; )
Long short forms vs short short forms
Carla,
A long short form is usually easier to remember. So I would definitely assign the short forms as suggested by Kelli: SmithCThead SmithCTabdomen etc
In most Expander programs you would opt for a short short form as you have to type the whole short form before you can expand. In Instant Text you don't have to type the whole short form: you type the first two letters of your long short form and then you can type any of the following letters. So in this case you would type smcth for the first one, smcta, and you may also type smhead, smabd
This is possible when you use the Instant Text marker key to expand. If you use the space bar to expand, you may be better off assigning the initials as suggested in the second response, as you would not be able to "jump ahead".

someone earlier was referring
to the TV show, The Apprentice, with Donald Trump. That's the only postI've seen on here regarding apprentice.
there's and earlier post about that below...nm

Question about earlier
post. I see that one of you would not give your son's SS# to the high school. How would this work if you were registering your child for Kindergarten? They told me it was the law that they had to have it. Is that not true?
They were there earlier this morning.

Somewhere on this board earlier in the
past 1 to 2 weeks someone wrote that they had gotten the Antivirus 2009/2008 on their computer and that McAfee now has a service where they will dial in on your computer and repair it for $40 to $80 for viruses, spyware, hijackers, etc.; which is a lot cheaper than taking it in to a repair shop and dropping it off. I am not sure if you have to have a subscription or now to McAfee for them to do this, but would be worth checking out.
It went up to $2.29 yesterday, was $2.16 earlier this week...
I'm glad I work at home!
If it worked earlier in the document SM
the paintbrush on the toolbar - highlight a paragraph (including the paragraph mark itself) that DOES work, click painter, then click in the paragraph you want to reformat and it should add that tab (as well as any other embedded formatting in the paragraph you copied from).
thanks, you're right and right -- what's getting up three minutes earlier? (nm)

Hmm, my earlier post, which was quite polite, is gone now.
We'll be having DEER STEAK kabobs for dinner tonight, though!!!!! MMMMM, Bambi on a skewer dripping with BBQ sauce.
Could you start 1-1/2 earlier so you'll be done for the

like I said earlier...birds of a feather
geez! You call it reality. I call it rude and obnoxious. and if you think that's great, then you are one of her birds and I feel sorry for you.
Okay...um, earlier when you said you had accounts from Haiti.
I thought you meant you actually had clients from Haiti, like in the country Haiti. Boy am I feeling really dumb right now! LOL!

I responded earlier to this poster
I am also an IC for a company I started with in March and confused as to why I would need a credit card for business purchases, etc.
and that I am not to worry about paying quartly? My accountant told me to do this and that was it.
I have only been taking 20% out of my pay and sending it in to the U.S. Treasury. Is that wrong? It sounds like I should be doing a lot more. A little confused and nervous.
Me, too. I was going to post earlier, but didn't
have the energy. I had the twitching thumb first about a year ago, now aches and pains every week that move or migrate all over, too. Numb legs, butt that kills me - seriously, I nearly cry when I sit down or stand up. Then it moves to my neck, or shoulders, and then back to legs. It is horrible pain, and I'm getting really worried that I'm not going to hold up for this job much longer. Its so pathetic - sitting in a chair and falling apart. I was wondering if it could be fibromyalgia-type symptoms. Horrible. You are not alone! I have also bought so many ergonomic things - chair, keyboard, mouse "platform", and forget it. Oh yes, even lighting, and I still am in pain all over the second I sit down in this chair.
Had issues earlier this morning,

Autocorrect question earlier
I meant AutoText. How do you transfer all that to a disk?
Many, many! But at some point, your earlier ones start to

Sorry, didn't see this was already asked earlier but thanks:)
QA Help: Earlier I transcribed a report where
the doctor used a really offensive curse phrase. He was actually quoting what the patient said (ER report). He said place this in quotes. It was a really ugly thing to say (mother F word). Even though it's in quotes as what the patient apparently said, I felt uncomfortable actually transcribing it. And believe me I'm no prude. I've heard it all (and said some of it). However, it just seemed really unprofessional and not appropriate in a medical document. It's not like it was a psych report. In fact, it really had no relevance whatsoever, in my opinion, but I could be wrong I guess. So, I left a blank. But now I'm thinking, was that really not my call? Should I have just transcribed it? What would any of you out there have done? QA? What do you advise in cases like this? It's happened before but never as filthy as this.
I wondered that as soon as I opened it earlier, LOL.nm

Bankruptcy is not that bad- filed earlier this year and
bought a truck 2 months ago and I am currently working with Lending Tree to buy a house and hope to close in the next month. So there is life after bankruptcy.
Also, if you can switch the hours you work, get up earlier,
and work after he goes to bed. Make the time for him while he's young. In about 3-5 years he'll be less worried about you working and wanting to spend time with you, so enjoy him while he's young cuz it doesn't last long. :)
The one I listed earlier does. Link inside....

Towards the bottom there is a pull down to pick speciality, and chiropractor is one of them.
I tend to agree with this. I was thinking this earlier--sm
when I read the OP, but everyone seemed to conclude that it was none of her business what the other employee did. However, in my opinion, if the MTSO found out about it from another source, and believe me, she would eventually, it could come back on the other MT as having known about it and said nothing. Everything in this world, these days, is a cover your butt situation. If you knew about it and said nothing, then you are just as much to blame as the one who was doing it....against the contract with the MTSO. Protect your own interests first, and do not worry about the one who is doing wrong. silence is condoning her wrong doing and that makes you (the other MT who knows about it) just as guilty. JMO. So, I guess I am on the side of the MTSO. Sorry.
I posted earlier about small print
Well, got that fixed and I be darned if now the screen seems to be flickering between pink and white. It is not just my eyes- driving me crazy and trying to work, almost impossible. i had tried several things including going into properties and trying to reset the font size. Can anyone else give assistance? I am not enjoying today. Thanks!
oops - never mind earlier question!
just read your answer!!
Earlier Poster with Keyboard Lag Problem (sm)
I've been thinking about your problem and recommended some possible answers, but something else has been nagging at the back of my mind. There is also the possibility of a keystroke logger that is intercepting your Keystrokes before passing them along to the screen.
A keystroke logger can be a physical device placed between your keyboard and your computer, or it can be even be installed inside the keyboard. It can also be a bit of software that intercepts and records keystrokes. Sometimes this is a commercial application (like parents use to watch what their kids are doing online), but it can also come surreptitiously in the form of malware called a "rootkit" - which you can think of as a "supervirus" on your computer.
I suppose it's also possible that a spybot (another form of malware) could also be doing this.
Bottom line: Be sure you're using good antivirus and antispyware software, keep them updated, open NOTHING that comes in your email that you don't specifically recognize, and don't follow links that come in emails you don't trust, no matter how "official" they appear to be (like, from your bank or credit card company).
Maybe in the recycling bin? Or you could restore your computer to an earlier time?

Update from earlier this week re: mammo and ultrasound
Had a visit with the surgeon this afternoon. There actually is a 3 mm lesion behind my nipple. I didn't get a chance to write down what he had written on a sticky note on my chart, plus it was upside down, but I think the word was hypoechoic. Anyway, I have an appointment for a ductogram for next week and then we'll go from there.
I think my poor husband is on the verge of becoming an basket case, but I told him no sense in getting worked up until there is actually something to get worked up about. I told my sister I actually feel better NOW than I did this morning.
Stay cool, everyone!
Didn't you ask this question earlier? Has the situation changed in some way?
If the situation is still as described below, you're still taking on a problem that you can't address, ie., networked hard drive. This needs to be set up in the doc's office and the parameters you set out below are not achievable with any web-based service out there.
I meant to answer your post earlier, but I've been trying to catch up on
housework before school starts. I cannot WAIT for school to start. I'm so tired of the kids' bickering and attitudes this summer. They've taken to ignoring me whenever I ask them to do anything. I threaten them with grounding, loss of privileges, or slave duty. Then they bicker about who did more chores or who made the mess to begin with. Instead of cleaning up after them, I leave it sit until their Dad gets home. If they don't want to listen to me, they'll darn well listen to him.
They are usually really good kids. I think it's mostly cabin fever because a lot of their friends went on vacation or stayed with their biological Dads for the summer. The kids are so bored. I'm just so tired of it every summer. I have all these grand plans for finishing work early and doing something fun each day, but I get the same garbage every year. Too many kids over here, too many interruptions, too much bickering, too much mess.
Let me tell you, I'm celebrating on the first day of school. I'm going to the coffee shop and buying a big mocha latte. Then I'm going to sit there all by myself and read a book. On the way home, I'm grabbing lunch for myself and watching a chick flick by myself. No McDonalds either.
We filled our gas tanks full earlier this week before the prices went up.
We've got bicycles and a scooter to ride whenever possible. We're already saving money on gasoline by working at home or close to home, compared with our former 25 mile round trips each to get to work and back. We're thinking about selling our truck to get an economy car. We canceled cable and got a Netflix membership so we don't have to drive to the video store any more.
I've been freezing and canning fruits and vegetables from the garden. We're going to stock up on meat by buying a side of beef locally. I buy extra whenever there's a good sale at the store. I shop at the day old bakery, dollar store, and hit the loss leaders at the grocery stores that are all within walking/riding distance from the house.
I can't think of anything else but would love to hear more ideas.
Attn: MTSO - re: your earlier post for a reliable MT that was removed
I replied to your earlier post, as did a couple of other MTs, however, now I see that your message has been removed.
I just wanted to try to touch base with you again.
If you are still looking for help and would like to contact me you can do so via replying via email to this post.
Thanks....
I wonder why your post was removed before?? Moderator, info?
I had found an earlier post that said Infinity would work with InScribe, but sm
I don't think the poster knew about the most recent upgrade.
I had also read about the start/stop pedal being frustrating due to it not stopping immediately. I did find one at Dictran that said exclusively for InScribe, but there are two types there, so that was also confusing!
This was posted earlier today on the Gab Board and now I am reading this statement from this Pakista
MTSTARS.COM DOMAIN NAME HAS BEEN HIJACKED!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted By: Sheri Steadman Administrator (see details inside) On: 2008-02-27
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTICE
The mtstars.com domain name has been hijacked, so this website will probably go down and then come back up with old information (not current posts). We are setting up at mtstars.net and taking legal action to regain the mtstars.com domain. Please do not post at this site further as the domain has been taken over by an offshore entity.
Thank you for your loyalty over the years, but know that we are not gone. We plan to have mtstars.net up and running very soon ...
The short of it.....
When management sends you E-mails filled with typos, they are going to you, not to the client. Since you aren't paying management, it doesn't matter if every word they type in their E-mails to you is spelled wrong. See, management's paying you to transcribe error-free reports. Understand now?
PRD short cut help
I have been using the PRD short cut program on an old DOS-based computer in WP51. I have upgraded to Windows XP with WordPerfect X3 and wondered if there is anyway to use the PRD with this program. I have had to use other short cut programs for Word on my XP computer but have recently had to move all my WordPerfect work to my new computer and need a short cut program for it as well. I would sure love to be able to use the PRD. Anyone with any helpful information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!
I do think it's too short but...
the company I work for only gives you 2 days. :(
short msg
My guess is that VIPS like this would have decoy names, and they should.
I agree that AHDI or whatever AAMT wants to be called now is just another thing to watch and not trust. That said, why should anyone want government to be in charge of everything and be trusted to not screw it up? They've shown us already (both parties) how well that's worked, so I'll handle my own "change," thank you.
AHDI is another form of big government making things more difficult for us.
$32/hour? You said $36/hour on an earlier post. Either way would be great. n/m

Don't sell yourself short....
I charged docs/clinics 12-14 cents/line 5 years ago. They had no problem with this. Being paid by the hour in Canada at home where I work for a local hospital I make $18.33/hr plus 14% in lieu of benefits plus 4% vacation pay ($21.73 per hour) For contract work MT's in my area charge $25 per hour or 14 cents a line. This is not through MT companies - just for docs asking for extra help and our Physiotherapy Depts that do independent medical assessments contract it out to local MTs. Hope this helps. I'm in Ontario
Don't sell yourself short.
If you think that you need to "lower" your rate because you're not driving and picking up, then charge .10/line; otherwise, I would stick with the .11/line and consider it a "raise" if you get the job. Honestly, if the OM is happy with the quality she'll get at .06/line, then you probably didn't want that account anyway because I have found those OMs are the biggest pains and you're better off without the aggravation. JMO.
My short story
Somebody removed themselves from the picture before someone in the extended family tried something with me and if they had spoken up there is a chance I would not have that horrible memory now. I yelled loud and clear so that no one else had to go through what I did. I don't care how old he is, unless you are clearly mistaking his actions - which I doubt - then something is wrong. This is probably easier from you to step away but if you read or found out that he had tried this with a 7, 8, 16 or 20 year old or even someone else or he had with his daughters -- could you then live with yourself. At least tell your mother the reason why and if she choses to put her head in the sand, so be it but you told someone. If you have questions about what you feel or think is happening talk to someone but do something.
I'd get up and kick my dog if I got that. I like short SM
little tonsillectomies and stuff. :) Keeps me awake.
I have Short Hand. Never used the others -sm
You can install ShortHand on multiple PCs. I like it. You can actually have one shortcut for a few things (found that really, really useful). You do have to pick from the list which one you want, but I'd rather be accurate even if it might slow me down a little. It has drawbacks too though. If you forgot to put -ed on the end of a word for instance, and you go back and do that and if ed is one of your shortcuts, it will expand when you don't want it to. You can save your personal shortcut dictionary (which is nice for backup) and install it along with the program on other PCs. You can also convert an old PRD dictionary from WP if you had one and possibly others too.
It works with anything windows and you can have multiple dictionaries for multiple jobs or facilities that might have different rules.
life is too short
Just chalk it up to your value system being different from your value system. Nothing dumb about it. I have seen the same happen.
