I would like to print out my expansions in Auto Text, Inscribe. I am needing to make changes and clean it up and for me it would be easier to make the changes on paper and then go and do the changes.
Any ideas?

Emdat Inscribe Auto text
New to Inscribe and when I try to expand my word in auto text the cursor jumps to the next line. Even did this when I tried a key other than the enter key. Also have Instant text(older version, Instant Text III Pro, but seems to be taking a long time to get used to. Any thoughts on these two expanders, which is better to use? Thank you
Are you sure you're using Auto Text and not Auto Correct?
Auto Text accompanies the template, as I stated before. The Auto Correct entries are in a separate file with the .acl extension.
Transferring Auto Correct/Auto Text
I work in Word currently and have a large number of AC/AT entries. I am moving to a platform that has Instant Text or Shorthand. Is it possible to transfer these entries as a file somehow, or am I going to have to enter by hand? Also any comments welcome regarding the ease of use, etc of Instant Text versus Shorthand.
Thanks
Can you use Instant Text with Inscribe?
I've been using the Expander build into Inscribe, but wondered if this program would work and increase my speed. Thoughts? I'm open to any other programs too if there are any other suggestions. It's hard to remember all my shortcuts!
Inscribe + Instant Text
Do you have the latest version of Instant Text Pro V with the 5.44 update? More information is available here:

Instant Text and Inscribe
You definitely should use Instant Text V Pro if you transcribe in Inscribe.
Instant Text III came out in 1998 and it may be a bit old :-) for this platform.

Instant Text works with Inscribe
Yes, IT works with Inscribe, and you may be able to convert your Inscribe list into an Instant Text glossary.

auto text, auto text auto text - I also have ...
a couple of doctor accounts that pay me "off the books" and it's less than $800/month so that helps out a great deal.
I autotext every report until I build each doctor up to a "normal" text format. if you want more info - email me at dcr468@aol.com. I am always hesitant about writing the name of companies on this board because of the serious bashing that goes on.

Auto Text entries
The file should be located here:
c:documents and settings<your name>application datamicrosoft emplates
There are a couple of other "critical" files that you should also back up. One is CUSTOM.DIC - (this is your dictionary)
c:documents and settings<your name>application datamicrosoftproof
and the other is MSO1033.acl (AutoCorrect entries)
c:documents and settings<your name>application datamicrosoftoffice
Auto Text thanx for helping :)

MS Word Auto Text
I had inputed a bunch of my own "text expantion" into MS Word Auto Text and went in to work today and they are all gone. It is not the first time this has happened, and then you have to go and input back everything, which is a pain.
Has anyone else experienced this or know why it happens??
Word expanders vs Auto text
What is the difference between Word Expanders and Auto text? Are they the same thing?
Thanks!

MS Word 2003 auto text
I use Word 2003 with the platform that my company uses. I am able to save autocorrect entries, but whenever I save an autotext entry it is gone the next time I open Word. Is there some Word option I need to click that will enable my entries to be saved? It would save me so much time if this feature worked.
Auto Text too full-slow MS Word
Has anyone experienced having their Auto Text in MS Word so full that it slows down getting into and out of MS Word Program? This seems to be the problem, because when I accidentally deleted my "Auto Text" entries, my Word program worked fast again. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Auto text entries are saved to the template.
Open a document (even a new, blank one). Click on Tools, Templates and Add-in. Click on the box at the bottom, Organizer. Choose the Auto Text tab. If the AT entires you're looking for are shown, make note of the template that they're attached to (in most cases, this will be Normal). If you want them to be copied to a new template, simply choose that template in the opposite box and copy any or all entries that you want to copy.
Need to make sure your AutoCorrect/Auto Text functions

open a word document, under help type in auto text--sm
and you can learn how to create, save, delete, edit entries.
RE: Auto Text - I keep adding AutoText entries but then the next day they are gone. Any suggestion

Auto Text entries on word. Is there a way to copy these or print these? Thanks in advance. NM

Can you use the Word autocorrects or only Smartype? What about the Word auto text? tia nm

structured text from free text...
eventually just templates filled in. being that I am near 50, I will probably be okay, but I feel bad for all the younger MTs just now in school. according to this article, we will all have to be willing to learn the new ways.
no more 'blind faith'
In InScribe
If you F1 into the bracketed fields and then hit the space bar, the bracketed field will delete. I avoid this by just starting to type after I F1 into the fields - No need to hit the space bar. The blanks being bracketed are helpful when you need to go back and listen, you just F1 to it, find your place on the voice file, and fill in the blank. If you're not hitting the space bar, I'm not sure what the problem is.
Inscribe
Has anyone heard of the company Inscribe? If so what is your opinion on them. Thanks
Inscribe
I just started with them a month ago - I work weekends only. They are family-oriented company, about 100 employees. Everyone I have dealt with have been super nice. They have mainly hospital accounts - some clinics. Not too hard to learn. WGMs are very helpful if you get stuck or have questions.
Inscribe
I actually just got a job with them. They had called me and set up the programs but they had told me that I need to take a training class and someone would contact me. I have not heard anything yet. Hopefully it will work out. I am not even sure what specialty I am typing on.
Inscribe
About a week or so. They just called me and ask me when I wanted to install their program.
Inscribe
Can I get Inscribe's website please?
Using IT with Inscribe
Hi Heather,
Did you download the latest revision for Instant Text? If so, the next step would be to establish your Link Options to tell IT to recognize & link to Inscribe. From that point, it should function as normal. If you are still having trouble, it would be best email tech support directly at support@textware.com
Kind regards,
Kristen
InScribe
Laura, Are you working for InScribe right now? Did you get everything set up?
I use InScribe...sm
and I saw this new option in the "upgrade", but my company, thank God, does not try to screw us out of money by using the "Qualified Lines" instead of the "Standard Lines". I also watched the flash demo on Emdat's website. It clearly stated something to the effect of--with this new option more money goes to the MTSO and less to the MT--that may not be word for word, but it is pretty darn close, because I remember thinking, "WTH?!" I thank God for my company and their integrity for not taking advantage of me, but I bet there are a LOT of companies who won't be so decent about it. Disgusting!
EMDAT/Inscribe
I'm lost. This is something I don't think I've heard of. Could someone explain how it works and where I would have to get it?
Thanks
EMDAT/Inscribe
It is not something you go and get unless you are starting up your own business. It is a type of VPN that some MTSOs use. Personally, I hate EMDAT and Inscribe is not much different. I have worked on both and disliked them both. I have yet to work with either that provided anything less than a sub-rate spell checker. You can add words of course, but that takes time that you do not get paid for. I rely on auto-complete in my Word program, which you cannot use with either system. Overall I give it a thumbs down, but that is just my opinion. I run from any ad suggesting EMDAT/Inscribe.
EMDAT/Inscribe
I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to know that I am not alone in my feelings about EMDAT/Inscribe. I quit a job after just 2 days because I hated it so. The MTSO could not understand why I wasn't "in love" with her system. I told her why, but she refused to listen. Maybe there are MTs who love it, but it is on my highly dislike list. Will never work with it again unless I am forced to.
EMDAT/Inscribe
How difficult is this platform to learn? Also, is it difficult to get a good line count if you have a decent account?
TIA
Emdat/Inscribe
Why do want to type in word? I use this program also and type reports in the window provided by the program. Maybe I am not understanding your question.
Emdat/Inscribe
Yes, I have noticed that also. What I do is listen for the info needed, then access wherever it needs to go. Sometimes I may need to write it down if its alot. Pain in the you know what I know.
Inscribe is great!
Although I've never used another platform :) I started working as an MT in June and have 2 jobs which both use Inscribe. I love it and found it very easy to use. There is an online tutorial that will walk you through everything. I don't know anything else, so I have no comparison's for you.
InScribe upgrade
I sent this question to Inscribe and the answer I received from this is below it. I'm going to upgrade and then "back up" if I have to until I can in get a pedal. This does at least give us warning that the upgrade will be forced later on.
Q: I have not upgraded to 4.91 InScribe, but still use 4.3.202. I have been told that the upgrade will not allow Express Scribe?
A: This is mixed results. I know some people are using express scribe sucessfully, but there are some issues with windows Vista and espressscribe
I believe they meanwith the new version. Also there is a USB configuration tool for footpetals built into InScribe that may work for you as well.
The only way to test it is to really just try it out. You can always uninstall the new version and download the previous version, although in the near future the new version of InScribe will be a forced update.
I just use the F keys with InScribe
Go to Options, Set actions, and select which F keys you want to have which function. I thought I would die at first, now I don't think I would go back to the pedal!
Rewind InScribe
okay...as I use Express Scribe instead of the built-in player, can't say for sure, but when I played around when the built-in player, to decrease playback or increase playback in InScribe, you can do Shift/Control/+ to do either one and you can do Control R for regular playback...that's according to the Shortcut help that I read. Let me know if it works. There HAS to be a way to change your rewind to 0 or 3 or 5 or whatever you want it to be.. In don't see why your company won't allow Express Scribe. It doesn't interfere with a thing. The only keys that can't be overridden is F2,3, and 4 and if you are using those keys only as play, RW, and FF, then you don't need ExpressScribe.
USB ports and InScribe
Thanks. That helps so much. I'm really leaning this way. Did you buy direct from Dell or from a dealer? I guess as scribes we need to learn computer lingo as well. I really don't know what people are talking about when they talk about 9-pins and USBs and such. I use InScribe and Express Scribe. You do believe the pedal I'm using now will still be fine? Anyone with the same situation, but using Vista instead of XP? Everything I read seems to say that XP is so much better, but maybe they are just the ones being vocal. I do know that a lot of people do NOT like Vista.
IT and Emdat Inscribe
Every since upgrading my Inscribe I can no longer use my Instant text. Is there a way to fix this? I am totally lost now. Are there any other programs that will work with this? I have tried several times the patch or whatever it is called but still not working. I even tried to uninstall and reinstall IT without success. Any suggestions?
Emdat inscribe
Anyone know if either ShortHand or Shortcut Expander program will work with Emdat Inscribe? Thanks.
Emdat/Inscribe
For anyone who has used the Inscribe program - if you have more than one report on a dictation file, do you know how to get the voice file for the 2nd report after you have got the demographics for that report? I can get the 2nd format but not the voice file. Thanks.
Emdat/Inscribe
Thanks. I will try this.
EMDAT, INSCRIBE
If anyone uses this program...could you please let me know what text Expander program you can use...If this question has been answered before...sorry...I don't get on here every day, and have been using Inscribe without any text expander because the one I have does not work with it...so I thought I would get some input as to which ones are able to be used with this software.
Thanks!
EMDAT, INSCRIBE
I use InstantText without any problems.
