Working out of folder
I d/l doc/voice files off system and put into folder. I get the docs out of the folder, click on same job number on player and away I go. When done, I put back into system manually, when I am ready to. I don't have to wait for platform to open doc. and I don't have to wait for platform to load it back into system before I can move on to the next job, I have control over that. I have found that the more control I have over my jobs, the quicker and more efficiant I can be.
Put the files in their own folder then
right click to send to zip folder. Beware that you may not compress the files enough if you are sending them.
In your programs folder under
function?
direct all her mail to its own folder
most email clients allow you to do this. Then once a month delete it all. It never shows up in your main in-box
Just go to "open", go to your template folder - sm
open up the document/template you want, make your changes and save it. Very simple. I do it all the time with letters (put in the date so I don't have to type it 20 times).
yes. outlook 2003 has a sent folder also, but--sm
it is all added in to the quota email set by ISP. sent folder, inbox folder, local folder whatever, it is all a part of the ISP quota for email capacity. I use Time Warner Cable Roadrunner and even with biz class, capacity for email storage, sent, inbox, etc. is 256mb. that is all I am saying about this. I don't want to start a flaming argument..
You should be able to find the folder on your puter sm
and open it in word or notepad and see everything there. Check out the Instant Text site for their forums, I am sure there is a blow-by-blow there for you to follow. I have never done it, so I am not 100% sure.
I have mine all upload from a folder on my PC.
I just go and periodically clean out that folder.
Find your sh9 folder on your computer. then sm
find all files in that folder that end in .spf. These are all your dictionaries. Select the ones you need to copy and copy them onto whatever media you're using to transfer. Then you just paste them into the ShortHand folder onto the new computer, and voila! REady for use on the new computer.
My Documents is a folder, not a program.

Try Folder Options in Control Panel.
Go to the View tab and then click Show hidden files and folders. I hope this works.
If you right click the folder, it should highlight it and give you
a drop down menue with the option to rename. Let me know if that helps...
HELP with Shorthand. Suddenly today when I tried to start work today.sm
my ShortHand would type only the first letter of an expansion and then take all the letters away! I checked and the Type It button is grayed out! I have restarted the computer and looked on the Shorthand Help menu but can find nothing that applies. Can anyone please help me ASAP? I am lost without it! TIA
Perhaps you are right. This one is dated today. The original article was on Yahoo today also with
But this article states it would only affect new customers right now. So I am upset over nothing. I went through heck with BellSouth when they charged me a surcharge of an extra 50 a month and then would write a letter saying I had to switch to a long distance service and pay by the minute because of my "excessive" use. They told me the unlimited charge was for an average of an hour a day not somebody who worked out of their home and I needed to switch a business plan at over 200 a month charge. I switched over to cable because of that and then to read that cable was going to charging on a per use fee and not a flat monthly fee it upset me. It is the nature of our work, VR, only paying for VBC, having headers and footers taken away, now being charged for being on line, etc. It just seems that everything is done to keep to insure less money.
Hey! Why did they delete the entire comedy folder from this site?
???
I saved a copy of each report I typed to a folder on my PC and then used... SM
my line counting software changing the variables to gross lines. I'm sorry that this subject offends you so much, but there is a difference between line definitions and all MTs should be aware of this.
Exactly - create an email folder specifically for that company sm
and save all pertinent emails in that folder (just drag and drop). I have one for each of the companies I work for and I keep everything for a minimum of 3 to 6 months, longer if I think it is important.
Any way to get an e-mail back after being deleted from delete folder nm

Drs dont care as long as report in folder. They

Did you check your junk mail or spam folder? Sometimes they in there
yes -- I have a folder in favorites for my account specific references
and have for each that hospital's medical staff websites and frequently more
Most hospitals and MANY clinics and medical practices have their own web sites which helps a lot.
If you know the city and/or speciality, even plain Google searches can be an easier search than some of the "physician profile lists" -- just because half the time they seem to include every doctor in the state.
Also, fwiw, I keep a copy of state theagapecenter.com page (which is usually the first google hit if you ask for say "Indiana Hospitals")bookmarked as well. Very helpful in finding correct spelling of town and county names. it's worth the effort.
How do I make SmarType recognize a Blocks folder? sm
I just transferred my "blocks" folder which contains standards for my docs over to another computer with a thumb drive. I installed Smartype on that computer with the CD. I restarted the computer and SmarType is working, but it is not my standards are not coming up when I type in the abbreviations. How do I get the program to recognize the standards in the "blocks" folder? TIA
Win XP? Were you changing folder options in Windows Explorer? sm
Go back into Windows Explorer and look at the options on the general tab of folder options. I no longer have XP and don't remember the exact name of the option you need to clear the check, but you should be able to recognize it.
ESP files are stored on the service in the "Bin" folder. You should be able to open up an EXT
document and bring up your ESP window. Click files and their should be a "Load" option. Then you can search the server for your ESP file and you'll find it in the "Bin" folder.
I also agree, that you should back up your ESP file on a disk or jump drive. I back up about once a month.
Saved this in my Favorites folder, thanks so much for posting, happy holidays!!! NM
nm
I too use an external hard drive, backs up My Documents folder. sm
It only takes once to lose everything to know how important backups are.....I should know, happened to me!!
Zip the entire folder and email it to yourself or save to CD and install on new computer. nm

If you google "print folder list" you'll find a lot to choose from.

Blasted cold out today. It was 104 degrees last week, but it's 40 degrees today with rain.
However, I do like cozy days like today when I don't have to go anywhere. I'm done working, the house is clean, there's chili on the stove for dinner already, and I'm just putzing around. I think I'll go bake some jalapeno cheese bread to go with the chili.
I am going to see it today!!
nm
Usually twice a day for about 10-15 min BUT today I seem
to have been here more. I'm getting behind though and going to cut outta here until I'm done for the day! LOL
Just a lot of information to pass along to some who really seem to want to know.
WE HAD 73 TODAY!
I don't think I'd make it down south. We had high 90s with humidity for 16 days straight and that was bad enough. Glad it is cool again. 
Don't buy gas today
e-mail because of the high prices and this a national boycott. Wondering if anyone else received or heard this.
doing well today
Just did 1343 lines in 170 minutes but that includes printing, 24 envelopes, looking up names, getting on here three times, doing 3 E-mails to my subcontractor -- at 0.11 per gross line. So I am happy today.
I got another job! For example today
the cherrypicker on the account is not working for some reason so I'm expected to stop working my other job to cover her butt, but that doesn't happen anymore! MDI plays a lot of games, IMO. I am only staying until I know for sure my other job doesn't turn out like them.
Being out of work on my account happens daily. It probably depends on what account you are on.
Experiences are different for everyone. Good luck.
Today, that would mean
Today and many other days. Personally, I think that this is really becoming ridiculous. I'm a car buff and I'm sure that there are many other MTs who are as well, but, I'm sure that people who don't give a darn about cars don't want to come to MTStars and have to sort through tons of posts on cars.
No difference with pets. I don't own any pets and have no desire to do so. If I want to read about pets and whose leg or thigh they are humping and why...I'd go to a pet board somewhere on the internet.
Please, give us a break.
I had this one today...
DOCTOR: "Please send a CC to her primary care physician. I do not know who that is, but send him or her a copy anyway."
No other reports exist for this patient.
Yes, in my spare time I'm a psychic! 
Today was my first day
and I only lost about 250 lines from norm. Real easy to get the hang of, though. (with my notes, anyway :) Good luck!
Today is 6/6/6.
 The devil made me do it!
I had one today too
The doctor said he weights 325 pounds which is (and then he kind of hesitated and then said "too much." (he'll usually say which is up or down so many pounds.) At least some of the doctors say something different than the norm.
Had a doc today that...
had a perfectly understandable conversation with one of the nurses after he had logged on to dictate. I was stunned. I didn't think he could ever possibly speak at a reasonable pace. Of course when he was done with the nurse he had wasted so much precious time he had to dictate his note even faster than usual.
Something hit me today . . .
Recently I had to do a lot of paperwork to enroll my youngest in kindergarten for the 2007-2008 school year. They ask all sorts of questions about family history and specifically who has diabetes, heart disease, blindness, etc. Does this not violate the HIPAA laws? Do I have permission to disclose my grandmother’s health problems to the school? Or my mother’s and father’s? I never really thought about it when I enrolled my older child because I wasn’t a MT at the time and I never really had knowledge about HIPAA in those days. What do you all think about this? 
Not my day today -- that is for sure!
 Living paycheck to paycheck these days with the cost of living being so hight and DH being on disability. Today I get my check in the mail – national company—and it does not have a signature on it! I called the office – of course the payroll department had left for the day – it was only 3 something in the afternoon. I was told to physically mail the check back to be signed and they would return it right away. Why not just cut me a new check and mail overnight? Really sick of this place lately. Never did get any resolution of the 60 odd lines I was cheated out of before only weeks ago. Lost a few days work over the last week because the system crashed. *Sigh* I just started a new job on the side. Hope this one has a better track record.
had one today . . .
it was a discharge summary - he said "the patient was admitted for some reason, I really don't know why". The patient was in for renal failure for Pete's sake.
Exactly! Today is my day off and I'm doing...
the laundry and housework, like I would if I were at an office all week. My work days are for working my 8 hours and then picking kids up from school to be with them. I wish half my family would also understand, not that they bother me during the day, but just at gatherings and such...I don't talk about my work. I really believe it's jealousy, and they wished they would have thought of that years ago. But I do agree, it's hard work to still do it at home, just minus the driving and office crap!
Went in today and they...
do want me to start out PT and then after a time, a month or so, would bring me on board full time, if all goes well. This will be at $15.00/hr. I'm excited--this is not what a lot of you make, I'm sure, but it's more (consistently) per hour than I've ever made before. Keeping my fingers crossed it will work out!
Thanks for the replies!
I'm on rad today, and I did get a bad
dictator. On top of that, on several reports he said oh on the one I just did on so and so, order number so and so go back and put such and such at so and so and then remove line so and so and change to such and such. This is not easy to do on Dictaphone EXText. (Not on voice recognition) ARG! I wanna choke him today! Lots of burps and yawns and sniff, snort, cough, hack, wheeze. He has a cold so it's been a real joy to do his dictation today. NOT!!!! 
Thank you. Need to do that today. nm
I'm off today. Want me to think of another

What I did today...sm
I had to call Bell South about my internet and DID NOT get someone in Mumbai. First, I thanked her for not being in India, then I told her how I despised speaking to someone in India or some other third-world country about whatever issue I am calling about, then I asked her if she knew that the medical records of American citizens are being transcribed in India, which includes much of their identifying information, and she did not know and did not like it. Next Monday night I am going to bring up the issue at a town hall meeting with one of our state senators and tell him that despite what ole BO says, I LIKE my job and WANT to keep it and do NOT want it offshored!
It's sad that some today consider
manners too much to ask, I agree.
