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.

Doc is using software to do his own reports that puts the ® symbol after trade drug names and
I'm wondering if anyone is aware of a software program, maybe voice recognition, that does this? (I coudn't access the VR board to ask). This is one doctor in a practice that I transcribe for and I usually do his transcription for him, but the last time I logged into their computer to send them their files, there were reports in his file that I didn't transcribe that have this ® behind the trade names. I want to do a little research before talking to the practice. TIA
Click on tools, AutoCorrect, and click on tab that says
AutoFormat as you type and uncheck the ordinals option.
If it's installed, click or F10 to open it, click on...sm
the little white piece of paper icon to bring up the window where you ADD your new entries to, type your abbreviation in the Keyword box, then drop down to the Text to Type box and put in what you need it to say, then click Okay. You're done! If you want to delete your entry, arrow down to it, then click on the Trash Can icon. It'll ask if you want to put it on the clipboard, say yes and hit okay. If you want to modify it, use the little hand on the piece of paper icon. I like to click on the Disk icon to save stuff once I enter it, too, as a backup. If you're working and want to enter a paragraph or a page, you'll hightlight your stuff, bring up the ADD window, copy and paste it into the Text to Type area using the commands on the bottom of that box, name it, and hit okay. To use hot keys and stuff, you'll have to read the instructions in the help file. Good luck! ..nm
your tool bar
has a language option. I use it all the time when I need to transcribe for UK
on your tool bar at the top....
there is a paragraph symbol. click that and your formatting should turn off.
tool bar
Open Word, run your mouse up to the top of the page and right click in the space where you would see the tool bar, another elongated box should pop up, click standard or whatever tool boxes you use. If this does not get your tool bar back, under tools go to customize. This will bring up the same information to access your various tool bars.
HOPE THIS HELPS!
Andi
Yep, I'm a complete tool like that.
I thought as I aged I would grow cojones...the problem is, we moved up here and it's just so far away from friends and family, that when company does show up, planned or not, it is truly a blessing. I am incredibly lonely up here, and as I work out of a home in a land where I don't know ANYONE except my immediate neighbors, friends have not been easy to make and, well, you can see why I have so many postings on this board.
So, I guess I'll continue to treat people as I wish to be treated...with a big hug, a warm smile, and a "I'm so glad you were able to stop by"...and then stress out and drink black coffee laced with 1/4 pound of suger catching up on work while they sleep soundly. I only got this one life, so I might as well try to squeeze everything into it with at least a calm and cool outer appearance ;-)
moving tool bar
So I played around with Word. There are three dots to the right of the word File. Put your curser on the three dots and drag them back up to your tool bar. They will then be in a "little bar/box" then click on that bar again and "drop" it back on top. Hope that helps!
pick your tool
I am a slow-medium typer, and I do quite well straight typing, using a word Expander program and LOTS of expansions. With VR I found less opportunity to take advantage of expansions. Expander programs and VR are both tools we can use to increase our productivity. Because the VR pay is so low, I choose to straight type and use the expander tool.
not the sharpest tool in the shed

great motivational tool
I have found that this greatly motivates me to keep my speed up. I set one of those metal change counters that you wear on your waist next to my screen. Everytime I complete a line I press the nickel lever and a nickel falls out. Just the sound of that makes me want to type faster. For those of you who make 7 to 8 cpl, it is a few more presses per line, but definitely will keep you going as fast as you can.

Usually you can click - drag and drop them where you want them - hope this works for you this time.

MS WORD - TOOL BAR QUESTION
Part of my toolbar, from file through help, is now vertical along the left side of my screen. I checked "help" but could not come up with the solution for moving it back to the horizontal top of the screen position.
Thank you
Great tool for creating shortcuts
I just found this really great site with a tool on it for counting the repeated phrases in documents which we as MTs can use to make shortcuts!  
here it is: http://medicaltranscriptionexpandproductive.blogspot.com/
The water bottle is a very good training tool
for cats (squart guns too). Get a good scratching post and rub it with catnip. I use double-sided tape that I get from the Foster&Smith website and the cats leave my furniture alone. (I have 4 cats). The log is a nice idea too...messy but nice in addition to scratching posts and such.
Not all combs/brushes are created equal and I have found that the curry-comb type work best. They are sometimes called a shedding comb. It is in the shape of a loop with a handle. I put a towel on the floor and go to town! In the spring I can get a cat-sized ball of fur off of them using this comb. Regular combing will really help keep your house cleaner. You still need to use a roller or duct tape placed around your hand to remove it from your furniture on a regular basis. Good luck.
icons/tool tray on side of screen
Can't move them back to the bottom where they were, inadvertently moved them when resizing screens. How do I get them back on the bottom? TIA
Transferring Bayscribe Productivity Tool into Word
Does anyone know if it's possible to make the Bayscribe Productivity Tool work in Microsoft Word? Or at the very least, transfer the expansion list into Word's expander?
its a tool like macros, you have to teach it to understand you and edit at first the words it does
What I understand is, it helps out if you have body parts that are giving out, but it will not, say.. double your production.
There is an upload hanheld icon on the tool bar of the Olympus software.
from the unit to the computer, then the file can be dragged and dropped. Good luck!
Is the tool bar in your internet browser?... is the emial web based or Outlook?

There is a a button on your speech tool bar called "General Settings" SM
it has a hammer and wrench on the button. Click that button and you will see in the center of the box that opens up (and slight to the right) "number of spaces after period." Change that to 2 and click okay. That should give you two spaces after the period at the end of the sentence.
is there a symbol for cube..not cubic, but cube..sm
One of the docs we work with wants a symbol for the word cube and I did not think that medically there was one..but would like to know.
please let me know if you there
thank you for your time

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???
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.

RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Dear so and so
body of letter

Buy a 2-way & don't use the return-it's cheaper

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.
