... do you have to switch it back to white background/black type when you send in your work?

I send my work FTP and wondering if I send it blue background/white type, will the MTSO get it that way or will it appear normally with the white bkg/black type?

I hear that using the blue bkg/white type eases eye strain, which will help me, and wondering if I need to change it back before sending it via FTP.
MS Word grammar settings?

I would like to set up my MS Word to catch as many grammar errors as possible.  Should I just check every box? 


Thanks


Go into settings and emualte your WP to work as WORD with (sm)
the different settings and options.
This isn't a Word issue. Check the settings in ...
your download manager. You should be able to specify the language there. If you can't find anything, let us know which download manager you are using.

setting default view in Word 2000
My default view has changed to 90% and I have to manually change every report. Is there a way to fix this so it pulls in on the normal view every time?
Do the settings stay if you change your Word, close it, then open it again without going to your pla
That would tell you if the platform is making the changes to your Word and, if that's the case, talk to your platform tech support.
You don't necessarily to turn off the AutoCorrect of Word.....
I left mine on and when the ESP got full, started putting stuff in the AutoCorrect. There is a setting that you have to make to allow the AutoCorrect to work as well (in "Preferences") but I needed the extra space, took out some of the idiotic things in the AutoCorrect, and replaced them with abbreviations. It works GREAT!
My Word 2002 shows plus or minus symbols in outline view.

How to Turn Off that Grating "Ding" at end of MS Word Spellcheck

Hi,

Does anyone know how to turn off that ding that sounds when you finish the spellcheck in Word? The only thing I found was in Tools-Options-General, there is a "Provide Feedback with Sound" box, but that is already unchecked in mine (to the "no sound" option), but still I get the ding.

Not a major issue, but still pretty annoying, especially when you need to turn the volume up to hear a soft dictator...then the ding can blow you out of the water!

Thanks,
Dave
Just turn it off and wait for the electricity to dissipate and then clean it and turn it back on. nm
:
Turn down such low low offers, turn industry around. sm
The way to figure is how many lines an hour do you do. There are 13 lines characters in a line (65 line length)
So say you TRY to average 4 pages an hour say 34 lines a page equal 139 lines, times your line rate.
139 X 4 cents a line = $5.56 an hour

and what if you don't do 4 pages even less.

MTing hourly hourly output is not very predictablel, so ya never know and predict what you can put out each hour.
THE WAY TO TURN THE INDUSTRY AROUND IS TO SPEAK UP, SAY 'NO' THAT IS TOO LOW AND GIVE SHORT EXAMPLE.

If the MTs continue to accept, that is what the going rate will continue to be. Yes, Yes, it will. Just keep looking. Email for general lowest to highest line rate prior to testing and resume, just say it saves time on both sides and it DOES. Why waste time. Soon, the message will get out there.
Turn off puter, wait a min, turn on with delete key pressed down, then hit delete key NUMEROUS times

I haven't used Express Scribe since school, but have you changed the settings?  I had to change it to change the settings for what food petal I was using.  The one I chose was V-something (VEC?  VRC?) 3-pedal, I can't remember.

under File, preferences. Make sure you don't have verify target window checked. Also, may be the pause....after so many keytstrokes. Play around with that one. Every body is different but what works for me is pause 5 msec after 1000 keystrokes.

Also, try waiting for the expansion to appear before you type the word after it.

And below, make sure you have simulate Keystrokes checked.

On Exp Scribe, click on settings,file type, and if you don't what type of file, just check them all. Then give it a try and see what happens.

there you go again....different view
points is not the problem; it is how you or whomever respond to view points of others.  You should also re-read the original post.  Variety is the "spice of life", but insults and personal attacks are not acceptable in any format.  Smile. 
Different view
I've never heard anyone else complain about this, so maybe it's just me. I find them a bit cold and dull. There is less connection to the fact that there is a human being involved. It's like listening to a mechanic changing batteries all day.

They don't keep my attention as much as other acute care notes.
my view
Well when we were married (many moons ago) we wrote out our thank-yous on the plane on our way to our honeymoon. This was due to persistence from my grandmother that the thank yous had to be sent out ASAP, otherwise I don't know when they would have gotten out. I have also been to weddings in the recent years and have found that thank yous don't seem to be sent out so much anymore. We usually get an email thank you for birthday gifts that are sent, which is nice too. I guess I myself don't expect one, but it is nice to receive a thank you.
The View
I haven't been keeping up with The View as much lately. I turn it on occasionally and might see bits and pieces. In the past, I did watch it often and every time Meredith spoke she slapped the table. It was like a habit, like talking with your hands. Problem was, once I noticed it, it drove me a little nuts! I think Oprah's friend would be great.
The View
Well, Barbara says that the show is about different women with different views. It will definitely have people talking that is for sure. Who knows if it will turn into a good thing or the end.

The View
Anyone see Meredith's last day on The View?  Seems like they were trying to set the stage for Rosie's arrival with all that kissing. 
The View
I will admit that The View has never been one of my favorite shows.  I would tune in occasionally, but usually became too annoyed to watch it very long or each  day. However, I did watch Meredith's last day and after that, I started watching it every day.  I had heard Rosie was going to be taking her place and I couldn't imagine how loud and mouthy the show would be when that happened.  Suprisingly, I found that I started to enjoy the show.  Meredith was usually the one that annoyed me enough to flip the channel and with her gone, the others had more of a chance to speak.  I used to not care that much for Star, but since Meredith's departure, I have really enjoyed watching and listening to what she has to say.  I've even started taping the show daily, and now today she announces she is leaving.  I'd heard rumors and wasn't surprised, but I admit that I hate to see her go.  In the little time I have been watching since Meredith left, I have really enjoyed the show.  Oh well, it should be interesting in another way once Rosie comes on the scene.  I'm sure I'll tune in to watch the fireworks at least a few days, but I don't think I will care to watch it much after that.  Oh well.

Ok, where is the view?

My view to be
It sounds like they are trying to edge you out. It may be your attitude, it may be the quality of your work, it may the amount they have to pay you versus others, it may none of these things or it might all of them.

When it comes to getting another job, much of it is how you present yourself. If you are poorly spoken (i.e. they call you up, ask for you, and you say "this is her" when you should say this is SHE) or you send a cover letter with your resume and use terms like "I seen that in the newspaper" or your spelling and grammar are not perfect because you didn't proof your email...trust me, they are watching and it all adds up to what you can or cannot do for the company. Lots of us network from time to time, myself included. I talk to A LOT of MTs on a regular basis and they are always asking me who to apply with and if I have an in somewhere. Sometimes I do have "in" somewhere, but when you IM me and say, and I quote, your great...well I am not suggesting you apply anywhere I work!

It had to be said. You have to be very careful about how you present yourself and your skills. You never know who is watching.
I have a different view than you
I work with Escription and am totally surprised that it picks up even the hardest of ESLs, mumblers, cardiology, etc. I do not know that any VR would be able to make much out of static. I work part and clear over $20 an hour and probably could do more if the audio were able to be cranked up even faster.
Did you check all your settings and especially....
your password in OE? If so, is the Spamgard on in Yahoo so that it is keeping from going to your OE?

count. It was still very inconsistent and would not count headers, even though I *told* it to. I would count lines with it and then recount with Sylcount and Abacus was always fewer lines. This was just MY experience with it and I don't need to be made to sound like I am not familiar enough with these programs to not do the *settings* correctly. thank you.
it depends on the settings
I worked before for gross lines, but it depends on the margins and the font setup.  I had one account that was Ariel 12 and the other was only a font of 10.  With the 12 font I got more lines credited as opposed to the 10 font.  Working at 9 cpl without spaces actually evens out to about the same as the lesser amount with spaces.  You can download Abacus and then take a document you have typed and have it count it without spaces and with gross lines and then see the difference, it's really not that much.
click settings then...sm
under Playback tab, adjust the Auto Backstep on Stop (0-5000ms). 1000ms = 1 second.
Go to settings, then file and
it gives you a spot to put the number of days to delete files.
Control-settings....
Thanks so much - still having problems.  Got the wizard to work on a couple of ports, but only to the push rewind pedal - then will do nothing - locks up and goes crazy with buttons on Express Scribe flashing continuously...any ideas?
Will do both, but how do I get those settings back?
TIA
Mine won't let me do that. Wonder if it could have to do with the settings? nm

Changing settings

You can change the settings.   With your mouse on the main desk top screen, right click and go downto properties.  Go over to the settings tab and this will give you options for changing the font size.   You can change it in that setting by changing the pixel settings, or you can click on the Advanced button and change your DPI setting (or both).


Hope that helps.


I believe if you go into your settings while booting up. SM
On my PC if you push F2 or F8 during the boot up process it will take to your configuration settings.  There will be an option that will be able to clear the password so that you will not be asked for a password anymore.
Yes, I had looked at settings, but I don't see how
to do that. My screen is stretched now, and maybe I'm looking at the wrong place. I dunno....I'm seriously challenged when it comes to this stuff....thanks for replying
Playback Settings for ES
Hello.  You can go to the Playback Settings in ES and find the Auto Backstep on Stop heading.  Mine is set to 1780 that allows for a reasonable auto backstep. You can adjust to your liking.  Once you do that, go to "Control" and run the Footpedal Setup Wizard.  That should do it!  Best of luck.
