Is there a new format on Forum Section

or am I the only one experiencing this....
about two or three days ago, I've noticed that when I go to the main board, other forum or topic options were not listed on the blue portion of the page, and it feels weird to go back to the home page every time I want to change topic/section.

You not only posted on this forum, but another forum asking for
advice, not once, but at least twice, panic stricken. If you didn't want the advice you shouldn't have asked and you surely shouldn't have come back her bashing people for their advice. We are not medical professionals. It could have just as easily been something serious and because of the lack of $$ you didn't go to the ER and you'd be singing a different song today.
From their help section
Keyword: any_keyword
Text to Type: This is {@KEY Ctrl+B}bold{@KEY Ctrl+B}.
You can use the same concept to add any formatting codes to your ShortHand text.
PLUS I DID try the help section (sm)
in Word AND I have a copy of Word For Dummies (which I am sure you would think is quite appropriate) BUT I did not think to look up SELECT TEXT. I looked up DELETING text which is what I thought I wanted to do not thinking that I had to SELECT if FIRST.
I said at the outset that I was Word challenged and if that annoys you then just ignore my post.
Have you had a C-section?
I don't know about you, but I took the full eight weeks off that is alloted for a c-section. I was in incredible pain. I can't imagine only taking two weeks off. Then again, I also worked another job that actually gave me disability checks so I guess I'm in a different boat altogether. I also had a tubal ligation at the same time. I was in the hospital for almost a week and I coudn't walk for at least a month without severe pain. I guess I'm just a wimp. LOL.
C-section
Hee-hee! I have a funny one, too. My dictator says routinely "I sent the patient to see the breast-feeding nurses." All I can visualize is nurses sitting in a room, breast-feeding! 
There is a medicolegal section on
the job board . . . rarely any new jobs there, but if you go to the Job Seeker's Board and then Job Bank, it is one of the choices there.
Two weeks, c-section.
No one else to cover for me. I took it slow and accounts were patient with me--it helps that one was an ob/gyn. :)

You might have done one of the following:
Inserted a manual page break (page break: The point at which one page ends and another begins. Microsoft Word inserts an "automatic" (or soft) page break for you, or you can force a page break at a specific location by inserting a "manual" (or hard) page break.). Switch to normal view (normal view: A view that shows text formatting and a simplified page layout. Normal view is convenient for most editing and formatting tasks.), select the manual page break, and then press DELETE.
Set a pagination option. The following pagination options (Keep lines together, Keep with next, or Page break before) control where automatic page breaks occur.
To remove the pagination formats from text, select the paragraph following the unwanted page break, click Paragraph on the Format menu, and then click the Line and Page Breaks tab. If necessary, clear the Keep lines together, Keep with next, and Page break before check boxes.
Inserted a section break (section break: A mark you insert to show the end of a section. A section break stores the section formatting elements, such as the margins, page orientation, headers and footers, and sequence of page numbers.). The Next page, Even page, or Odd page section break automatically breaks the page.
To prevent a section break from breaking the page, click in the section (section: A portion of a document in which you set certain page formatting options. You create a new section when you want to change such properties as line numbering, number of columns, or headers and footers.) immediately following the section break, and then click Page Setup on the File menu. Click the Layout tab, and then click Continuous in the Section start box.
Inserted a column break. A column break inserted in the last column of a page will act as a page break. Select the column break, and then press DELETE.
There is an entire section on this

Going back to work after c-section
I returned to work two weeks after my c-section working 6 hours per day. I however made sure to get out of the chair frequently so as to not get so stiff from sitting for so long, which does happen so soon after a c-section. I wouldn't go back to soon though, as it can be very stressful with a new baby and a job to tend to on top of it all.
According to the Answers.com section of Monster.com
"Dr. Phil McGraw won a football scholarship and played as a linebacker for the University of Tulsa, but when he was injured he quit and transferred to Midwestern State University. He graduated with a B.A. in psychology in 1975, and went on to get his PhD. from the University of North Texas in 1979. He is also a pilot, with a multi-engine rating."

get in and out. I do not use the lid. It has nice, high sides, room to turn around and I usually try to keep 3 inches of liter in it.
I have 2 other 'regular' size cats who use the standard liter boxes just fine but my big guy only uses his big, roomy custom box. I also replace it about every 5-6 months. I wish you and your kitty all the best!
Please let us know what the vet says.
Either create it in the header section of
page set up or use a hard return after it and a page break at the end. Center text below the hard return but above the page break and leave a regular line at the bottom of the page. I would then copy it and paste it however many times I needed a report for then go back to the first and start filling in.
Hope this helps.
In Word, under the Tools section there
is a place for language set. Have you tried this??
Section 8 housing. It's a federal program through HUD.
Google it "Section 8" housing to verify.
Try melatonin over-the-counter in your vitamin section.
Doctors I worked with got me hooked on it. They said they used it themselves. Doctors know the side effects of chemical drugs and steer away from them when it comes to taking drugs. Anyway do a search on Google about melatonin. It may work for you and it really has no side effects for me, like the grogginess prescription drugs give you the morning after you take a pill to sleep.
I was working PT at home one week after my C-section and
probably working FT by third week, though can't remember exactly. I did have a flexible schedule and I had a very good baby. I worked where I could and weekends.

802.11 refers to IEEE code section.
These are the people who write the specs for how wireless works. 802.11a is the first generation, 802.11b, second, etc. The latest, I believe, is now 802.11g. While speed is important, and improved in the newer generations, it's also important to know what protocol the router uses as some types are not compatible. Your best bet would be to read up on the subject online by trying a site like www.howstuffworks.com. Do a search for wireless networking.

Re: Limited warranty on Equipment (stars); their legal people pretty much covered their ass. However, based on my experience with IPs, if you keep plugging away (it may takes months), eventually they will tire, thus removing said charges. Again, be prepared for a long battle and make sure to document everything, and I do mean everything. Please keep me posted.
Check Best Buy, business computer section...
I got a Lenovo laptop with XP on it, dropped the Vista all together. The business part of Best Buy has so many computers and laptops to choose from...don't just go by the floor models, they have many others to choose from.
Try the "support" section of the manufacturer's website.
Meanwhile... my favorite cure for just about everything, that seems to work more often than not, is to shut everything down, and I do mean everything--turn off the printer, turn off the computer it's attached to, take out the paper and put it back in, maybe even take out the ink cartridge and put it back in, maybe even disconnect the printer (with the power OFF!) and reconnect it; then turn everything back on, in the normal order, and see if that cures the problem. Sometimes when things haven't been powered down in a while, or a computer hasn't been shut down and restarted, things can get confused internally. No, that's not a very technical explanation, but I once had a programmer tell me to shut down and reboot the server at least once a month because if you don't, it "can't find the top of its own desk." (Guess that IS a technical explanation.)
If that doesn't work, I don't know what to tell you... try tech support on the manufacturer's website.
Administrator, I can get in to see the jobs ads or any other category other than the main section.
Is there something wrong.
Need MT section on this board to post line rates sm
and what company to help turn things around in this industry, meaning, the 4,5,6,7,8 9 etc per line which is grossly under paying if one takes the time to figure, how many lines, how many lines per hour, per minute, per second to make HOW MUCH PER HOUR. This is the key, how much per hour you make.
With a list of where to refer to, it helps curb this slave labor mentality.
THE MTs NEED A SECTION ON THIS BOARD to list going rates so the industry becomes more competitive and not at our expense with all this " supply 3 phones, supply long distance TO THEM. BUY THIS AND PROVIDE THIS TO THEIR COMPANY. Buy this license, this software.

Need to prepare -- Anyone out working at home delivered by C-section? I know they say 6 weeks to
recover and get back into an 8-hour day job routine, but did anyone come back sooner because they worked at home and were able to rest more and space out your work time?
I had major hair loss after my C-section last year. I was told that it was due to the (sm)
anesthesia. My hairstylist recommended Redken Extreme Shampoo and Conditioner. There is also a leave in treatment to stop breakage. I get it from JCPenney's. I think you can get it cheaper from any of the outlet stores. I noticed an immediate decrease in the amount of hair loss and now after 3 months it is finally starting to look better.. My son was born one year ago this month and my hair loss continued until around Christmas when I started using the Redken products. My doctor told me that it would probably only last during the first 3 months, but it lasted much longer than that. I hope this helps.

As for working at home, it may be more comfortable, but not when your butt is planted in the same chair at your desk for 12-16 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the rest of the world goes on without you. Not a perk, in my book.
Here is our format.

The example given by the other poster is good, but you may also want to add the date of the exam.
DSS Format
If you download Express Scribe which is a free program that does play .dss formatted files, you should have no problem getting the files to play. Good luck.
format
Just use all caps for headings. They aren't testing you on format. Worry about terminology, spelling and grammar.
Also, I have never heard of "acute care clinic" work. Acute care is hospital work, clinic is office work. Don't bill yourself as having acute care experience if you do not. They are quite different.
format
I use Wordperfect at work. There are approx. 7 people to have access to my files. Over the past 2 months, I am finding "Word" symbols in some documents and the format is changed, font, etc. No one is supposed to change one iota on those pages. Can anyone tell me what's happening?? I hope I'm on the right message board. This is my first. and thanks!
WAV pedal-.dss format
My doctor just switched from using the regular WAV pedal program using the WAV format to using the .dss format. This is coming up in Media Player and I cannot get the WAV pedal to work with it. What am I doing wrong? It leads me to believe I have to work online rather than download and work off line. It brings up My Documents and it looks like I should be saving it there. (I used to have in My Documents in Word a file set up for My WAV files, and one to Archive the dictation to keep for a while before deleting). This does not come up in My WAV any more, but is still in Archive. Any help or direction is appreciated. Please email me at maplehil@rea-alp.com as soon as possible. My work is piling up and I cannot be typing one line at a time. TIA
Start with Format...
Tee hee, I just learned this like last month! It took me long enough and it's really simple. Start with Format, go to Paragraph, you'll see the alignment of the paragraph is Left, change that to Center.
CLICK ON FORMAT,
Then the arrow at the bottom to bring up more choices. Pick "background", then choose the color you want.
You would need to learn format.
Perhaps if you take an at home MT course that would be sufficient, and with your medical background might be able to land a job. After getting a dentist's salary for so long, might be depressed when you see your paycheck, and with all the ESLs out there might not be so much fun. Not trying to disillusion you but just stating the facts. Also, need to be able to type pretty quick, and have listening/typing coordination - takes some getting use to in the beginning.
If you decide to do it, good luck.
Format heading
Tt the top, under format, check 'bullets and numbering'. Or, you can click on 'reveal formatting' under the same heading, then click 'show all formatting marks' and it might show you what is turned on that you don't need. Make sure you un-click the 'show formatting marks' when you're done to get rid of them.
What is the file format - wav, dss, etc.
What program are you using to try to load?
One thing I do is use the same format
for many of mine. (Old PRD formating)
Example - admin - administer
admins - administers
adminj - admininstration
admind - administered
also for diseases like -
chf - CHF
chff - congestive heart failure
Headings/phrases
hpii - history of present illness
hhpi - HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS
Also - if you have words you constantly transpose letters in, put those in -
teh - the
adn - and
eh - he
Every little bit helps.
If you are consistent on how you add your expansions, no matter what you put in, they will be easy to remember and become second nature.
It depends on WP format,
Spellcheck is no longer available for WP5.1.
Format question
I am currently transcribing a Consultation and never can remember these simple little rules... Under the recommendations section of the report the dictator says that "surgery is indicated for these 5 reasons" and then continues dictating and 1., 2., and so on. Would it be appropriate to add a colon after "these 5 reasons" and skip to new line to start numbering or finish sentence with a period? Or should it be a colon and the numbers starting on the same line? Thanks for anyone's help!
answer to format ?
I woud put the heading "Recommendations" and then type under that the ". . . these five reasons":
1. ________
2. _________, etc.
Auto format
You should be able to restore by formatting your commands. Just go in and find auto commands and click the one that over turned that.
Good luck!
