If not doing a numbered list, you should be using a semi-colon.

Use the semi-colon (;), especially since you are likely using commas to separate dosage, quantity, etc.

I use markers. i use semi-colon for pharses, which is where i put all my shortcuts at. sm
works a whole lot better than spacebar and only took me about a week to get used to the change when i switched from spacebar. FYI, i don't keep my thing open at the bottom either like some say they do. i move it to where i can't see it and just use memory so that i can go faster without selecting 1 or 2 or whatever pops up down there.
I feel left out! Nobody picked on my errant comma that shoulda been a semi colon.

WordPerfect numbered list help please!
Just starting to use WordPerfect, so unfamiliar with it. I can't get numbered list feature set properly. I can get it to number, think I have it set, and then when I save the document, close, and reopen, it has changed. Pulling my hair out here :) Any help is appreciated.
Do away with automatic numbered list. See inside steps.

HELP!!!!! Thanks in advance.
Most accounts want you to do a numbered
list, but if not then yes you need to put a comma between drugs. You are putting a period after mg (at least that is what is looks like to me) and that is not correct.
Numbered lists in MS Word... How do you
Make the list NOT indent? I want it to stay flush on the right with the rest of the paragraphs? I feel like this should be something easy and I am just spacing out!
It's a semi polite way of telling someone to
"F--- off".
semi right; preops most important......nm
I used to be semi-proud! At least content that I was doing well, but hearing these #s
thrown around constantly has really done a number on my job self-esteem. If they use normals to hit those high #s, which I really think they must, I just wish they would post that for all of us - know what I mean? Again, I can't imagine being a newbie and reading that everyone hits those #s. I'd probably give up. I hit a bunch of Ops once where the guy did have a standard - cataract surgeries. I did about 20 in an hour, and the count was HUGE - like 500 lines? I nearly fainted, but that only happened once, and my account just does not permit it, nor do most accounts I have as back-ups, come to think of it! I know a lot of MTs in my company have their "canned" text, like opening paragraphs for Op reports, and they just stick them in no matter what is dictated as the opening. I think that's terrible, and would NEVER do that. Plus now they will be getting "canned" themselves if they keep it up!! New company policies!
26/f semi-experienced in MT, looking for good programs Help ? TIA!
am out of a 10 yr program in medical administrative specialist. It gave us basically a basic understanding of MT, coding and etc. Its obviously not enough for what i was hoping to do. The best i can get is office work as a medical secretary with some transcription work plugged in. I'm 26 and currently disabled with a bad back problem. 2 surgeries later and its not good enough to do many simple tasks such as driving and going to regular work. I cannot bend or lift much at all. So my question is, can you tell me some very legitimate online programs that will ensure that i get a job in transcription once im done studying? I have heard that Career Step is the best option but im looking for more second opinions from experienced gals/guys who have had success with that program or others? I have ordered Career Step's packet and listened to the intro cd by the creator but i need more info. I know this kind of thing takes a lot of dedication and im ready for it as i am disabled and spend most of my time on the comp anyway. I want to do thorough research before i jump into this. Thank you very much for all your time!

Semi-related tip: use the canned air on your footpedal too
mine went nuts one day not long after I started with a new job, I requested another footpedal and got it mailed out, and then that one didn't work, either. I got to looking and there was fur in both of them! So I keep the canned air close by and keep it blown out!

Need help with cap after colon (:)
I have MSWord 2003. The first word after a colon (:) always capitalized the first letter and now for some reason it doesn't. I have checked Tools and can find no way to correct this. Any suggestions out there or someone else who had the same problem?

Need help with cap after colon (:)
It did automatically cap after a colon (:)up until a couple of days ago. My thinking now is the problem must be in Dragon. I upgraded to 9 Preferred and downloaded my medical terms. Guess it is a process of elimination.

There are colon cleaning "stores" where I live
You can go in and get a high colonic and come out feeling refreshed is the claim.
Did anyone see the Steve Martin movie with Sarah Jessica Parker where he was a middle-aged man trying to date an early 20's woman and maybe their first or second date was to go get one done. She came out dancing and twirling in circles and he came out walking like he had been riding a horse! Very funny scene!
Actually though, I think if you do something like this too often, it can have a negative effect on your intestinal health later in life. I would recommend a daily dose of acidophilus (the same culture as in yogart) for a healthy colon and motility agent. Papaya enzyme is another natural acid agent to improve digestion and helps with GERD as well.
As long as your colon keeps moving, it's not going to hoard materials in it. Eat right! nm

Anyone ever tried Dual Action Cleanse or any other colon cleansing products? sm
The infomercial was not pretty, and this guy focused way too much on BMs and such, but said that John Wayne died with 42 pounds of undigested material in his colon ... yuck! Supposedly, you use this product and feel tons of energy and all that ... wondered if it was just more hype or maybe someone had actually tried it. ?
Word hasn't capped after a colon since the 2000 version.
You have to manually cap with shift key or run a macro at the end of the report. You can also hit shift+f3 to change the case to upper.
Curious. I've never fasted for a colonoscopy, just clears for 2 days and then the colon prep. The

medical abbreviation list and medical drug list
Hi,
Anyone there who could help me out finding the latest abbreviations list.
I even want the latest drug list because my current program does not have many drugs.
So if anyone could suggest anything which is available online for informationd quick look purposes.
any help for medical abbreviation list and medical drug list would be very helpful.
If it's a business letter you use a colon. if it's a personal letter you use a comma. nm

not me. Sometimes I even wonder if I'm on the list...sm
his parents are elderly and are quite good at being graciously demanding. As soon as he walks in the door at 4:00 p.m., the phone is ringing wondering when he will be over to shovel the snow off of their walk - and they don't even leave the house. I definitely feel he puts his parents before me. Like the line "I knew it was over when...", when for our 25th anniversary, he gave me a $2.99 bouquet the night before and then planned to go to his mom's for dinner the night of. Not divorced, can't quite get to that but have the same fantasies of running away and boy, then would he be sorry  . Breaks my heart to hear people calling each other soulmates as I believe I will never have that.
It's pn my wish list too,
but the one I tried out in the store had so many hard spots in it, I don't think it would be very comfortable to sit in all day.
wish list
I wish to find a company that:
Goes by lines/production and lets me have a window (12 or 24 hrs)instead of keeping a timecard.
Does not use a platform!! Maybe just has an FTP site or something, download the voice, then upload the jobs when done.
Not constantly IM'ing me!
this list
Would love to see a copy of this as well. Thanks.
I won't list them all but -
my hubby absolutely cracks me up. He has a wonderful sense of humor and makes me laugh everyday (even on those "bad" days). He tells me daily that he loves me or asks me "Do you know how much I love you?" He is the only man I have ever been in love with AND trusted. 
here's my list sm
Survivor
Amazing Race
Desperate Housewives
Grey's Anatomy
Lost
Invasion
Medium
Switch with ER and Without a trace
Criminal minds

Here's the list....sm
Dogs: Shaina, Tiger & Taffy
Cats: Pearl, Ribbon, Samson, Ember & Hollow
Rabbit: Bonnie
Goldfish: Barbie
YES, we have a lot of pets! I had 1 dog, 1 cat, 1 bunny and the goldfish and when we got married last month my husband had the 4 cats and 2 dogs... so now we have a full house for sure!!!
No GAB on my list either
How do I get the GAB on my list?
here is a list of what i did
Completely and totally uninstall ANY remant you have of the program. Then try a reinstall. If that does not work, I would suggest calling Stedmans...they may have a patch. I didn't get a new dictionary until the 2007 version so there may be something in there that they can give you to solve the issue.
when I do that, I have to do it for each list, is there a way...
to make it stay that way all of the time?
the list so far
OK- so far I have pixked up from the responses the following. I have not been able to process them fully to determine if a full course is needed as of yet.
1- need to learn format- Would this be similar to writing up charts? Or do MTs have their own format in which they follow? We learned many different ways (or formats) to write up charts in school- and had the freedom to choose which worked best for us individually in our practice. A specific MT format would be something to learn in a class if they have one of their own. I've written my own charts for many years, so if it is similar to that- then I should pick it up quick.
2- need to develop or experiment with hand -eye- listening skill for pedal/typing/translating - I have very good hand eye coordination from being a dentist and performing procedures. And type fairly fast. I suppose I could figure out how to try out the devices before determining if it was something I wanted to do.
3- need to listen to some actual tapes- good idea. I am sure they are unlike the tapes of lectures that I transcribed in Dental School. I have watched my ENT mumble into his recorder in amazement many a time.
4- might be dissapointed in the difference in pay- definately something I already had considered. I am not looking for the same compensation. I don't expect it. I still have an office to go back to when I am ready - and do locum tennans here and there. I have no idea what an MT makes. What do they make?
Thanks- Susan

3. Quiet
4. Burt's Bee's lip balm.

Thanks, but I have that list.
I have to follow the BOS 3rd edition for my company so I can't ignore it (unfortunately). I seem to have a lot of trouble finding what I need quickly in that book. I guess my brain is not organized in the same manner. Every time I read it I find something new.
As far as I know, there is not any list --sm
that can be imported into AutoText. You have to enter manually.
We can only use the list they provide
Hard to find when you're not sure what the name is even starting with. Even with a data base of 1,000 physicians, it's constant searching. I use the search option and try to search for just one tiny part of the name I can understands, but it takes forever!
I found the list. If anyone else is looking sm.
Go to CNN.com homepage, click on the story about family looking for missing loved ones. On the top of that story page there is a link called "Safe List." That lists the names of everyone that has reported in as being safe.
Unfortunately, Andre Pouliot from Biloxi, Mississippi is not on that list. That is who we are looking for.
Thank you again. We'll keep looking.
OTI should be on the good list too.
If you like flexible hours, decent accounts, no harassment from the office but plenty of good tech support, and IC status so you work your own schedule. If that's what you're looking for, OTI is a great place to work.
drug list
Does anyone know of a site to download/print a drug list (quarterly drug index)? The one I have is old and the IDI I have is from 1999.
You just put yourself on the list with Walmart (sm)
You really just listed yourself in a class of people that don't deserve much credit either. You are upset with Target because they don't support the military...however shortly thereafter you made it clear of your feelings about gays and lesbians. Have you ever stopped to think about how many of those young men and women over there in harms way every moment of their life are gay? Or do you only "recognize" the heterosexual soldiers? Gotta love a hypocrite that bashes someone else for categorizing people...yet fail to see how they manage to lodge their own foot in their mouth in the process.
Wal Mart on my poo list
I went to Wal Mart as I always do. I wanted the laptop for $386. I work two jobs and really wanted to be able to remove myself from my desk to do personal stuff wherever or do my coding job away while watching tv. They only had 25 of them. I was like 35 in line. I cannot believe that is all they got in. Then I went to get the PS2 Burnout 3 game (I needed two copies) and the Scooby Doo double pack for Gameboy. They did not get extra ones in even though they advertised them for $8. They had what was in the case only, which was one of each. Oh boy how stupid. Then I got a few things like jammie bottoms and a remote control hummer for my son and the lines were awful. They were handing out these VCR/DVD combos that were not the right ones so people were MAD.
drug list
Yeah, RXList is a good one. I also like www.drugdigest.com.
