I am in need of a new line count program. Mine is on a floppy disk (yes, it's that old) and I no longer have access to a floppy drive.
What is a good/reliable program to use?

Line Count Software
www.wordtraverse.com has a very good line counting software that we use, WordTraverse. You can specify gross line, ignoring blank lines, etc. Pretty good price too...we've used them for 2 years now and we really like the support.

Line count software?
Can anyone suggest a good line count software that is either free or inexpensive? I'm starting as an IC in about three weeks and need to have everything up and ready to go within two weeks, as I'll be on vacation for a week before I start. I need it to be inexpensive because I already have to update my spellchecker, buy a flash drive, and get a business license and things are tight financially right now. Thanks for any advice!
line count software
For my gross line count, I just use Microsoft word line count. For my cpl I use Syncount. Don't know how the others work but this one allows me to count two characters for a capitalized letter, underline, bold, etc. Also since I do not like changes, was initiated with this one and just kept it for those I use cpl. 90% of my accounts are gross line but just at a lower rate so it all equals out.
line count software
I would like some suggestions as to what program or software is the best for line counting on a document? I need something reasonably priced that would count a 65-character line with spaces, etc. Any help is appreciated.
Than my line count software but be ...
doing it by the gross line. I am using Textally from the same people who do ExpressScribe. When I put my document in it reads 783 lines but when I read the character count and divide by 65 I get 722 lines! My second part of the question was: is 9 cents a line a lot to ask if you've got tons of experience and they're happy with your work?
Those of you who have gone from DQS to another program, how has your line count been
on the new program? Thanks.
Looking for line count program

Thanks.

mt stars line count program
I downloaded it--I don't see an option for lines with spaces...just characters?????
Just FYI, you should compare line count with another program (sm)
FlashCount gave me a much lower line count when I compared it to Abacus. I notified them about this and they never responded.
Software suggestions for line counting. MP Count is not helpful
I am doing an IC job and was going to use MP Count because it also prepares an invoice. The problem is.. I dont think the line counts are correct. I swear I only did like 6-10 clinic notes and it had my line count at 1100. Am I doing something wrong or is there a better program out there. I hate to spend a lot of money as this is only a temporary fill-in job for this week but I want to be fair. I put in 65 characters and I charge .10 a line.. I just cant see charging over $100 for just that many notes. Any suggestions?
Spellex medical spellchecker and line count software
Does anyone use this program. Is it any good. I have abacus right now that I have had for about 8 or 9 years and I really like it but I just upgraded to Word 2007 and I don't like the way it does the new count. It is a stand alone now instead of working inside Word and it does not seem to be as accurate and function as well. Also I have Dorlands electronic medical spellchecker and I really like it because it will correct things automatically that I misspell and stuff and it words directly in Word but it is not compatible with Word 2007. Does anyone have any advice on this or any software that is good and works with Word 2007?
Thanks
Line counting software - Need a good program. Have used MPCount in the past, but now
cannot download the old one, as it has been replaced by some new version, which I don't like. Can anyone recommende a good line counting program. Thanks.
You need to watch your line count. I was working for them and got reports that had line count of 0
You need to watch your line count. I was working for them and got reports that had line count of 0 in them. They did not pay for templates, they would deduct the template even if it was not used and deleted. I notified them and said they could not change it.
So I asked to be put on another account and they refused. I quit.
I was also promised they would have an incentive plan going into place if you type a certain # of lines. Two years went by and nothing.
I was really disappointed in OSI.
They also offered to pay half on joint AAMT, which they failed to do.
I am glad I am no longer there.
It will count everything if you go in the settings and program it to. Good program!
Sylcount is an awesome and accurate counting program also. That will count everything if you "tell it to".
Take the character count divded by 65 and that will give you your line count.

What software program are you using?
What software program are you using to run the foot pedal? I downloaded Express Scribe (free) and my Infinity foot pedal works great with that.
I hope you find the problem. I know how frustrating things like this can be. Keep us posted.
You are right when you say Arrendale is a software program. sm
This person apparently is trying to stir up trouble, apparently has nothing better to do than to try and stir it up. It won't work on this one because Arrendale is a software program. Back when YOG was around, the owner of YOG had signed an agreement with the then Arrendale Associates (who originally started out in NC). They sold the software or whatever to this co, but IT IS ONLY SOFTWARE.
calendar software program
AnyTime Deluxe offers a number of different options for reminders to pop up, also with various sounds
New England, 16.50/hr, 8 cents a line after minimum line count..
full benefits available with general contribution by the hospital before you start paying for them, retirement, 403b, all benefits, and working at home as an employee, BUT, you have to live local to the hospital.
I think maybe I am misunderstanding, but Arrendale is a software program
something like ChartScript, I thought. Maybe I am wrong, but I can't see Giselle outsourcing to India or anywhere else, but who knows, maybe. I have been wrong before.
They say their MTs are in the US. That is fact. Arrendale is a software program. sm
If the company that owns Arrendale is in India, so what? It is a software program just as is Vianeta, which they also use for their work. JLG does not outsource their work.

did you find the Dorlands with the Stedmans spell check for only 49.95??? That sounds like a great deal!!! thanks for the info!

can you suggest a good software program
to compare with the line counts being given by the hospital? I am also in the same boat, but I can access my line count. I would like an independent way of counting my lines, because you never know, right? What a world.
Word count program
I have an older model puter that is slowly going up and have word 97 count program on it. I am looking for something that is compatible with that - that also does all headers and footers - not just the header and footer on the first page that I can put on my new puter. I have checked in to SPellex and that is really slow counting. I also checked in to Abacus, which was fast and pretty accurate; it actually gave me a little more on a few of my reports as a trial run. ANyone have any ideas on this. Thanks for any help. 
Which HIPAA E-mail Software Program for OE is easiest/best?
I provide service for an office of three OB-GYNs and the OM/docs may be willing to consider going from hand-held microcassette to hand-held digital recorders (mean no more pickup-delivery of dictation/transcription for me!). I would like to utilize a very (hopefully) simple HIPAA compliant encrypted E-mail program for transferring of files in Outlook Express that will work on my own computer as well as the office's Linux network.
I have found one that appears to offer all of the above features I am looking for and seems reasonably priced called CenturionMail, found at the link provided. Is anyone familiar with this program and/or any others that they would highly recommend? I need something simple as we are all new to this adventure.
My goal is to some day be on the road in our RV, setup with a laptop, and felt an E-mail program would be my best choice for utilizing a campground's Internet connection for uploading/downloading of files. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks for any feedback you can offer me. I sincerely appreciate it.
C-phone + Word versus software program
What I'm trying to say is that it seems more time consuming to use a C-Phone and Word rather than a software program because everything is just a click away with a program, whereas with a C-phone and Word you have to dial in, do paperwork, send work through e-mail, create templates, etc, etc. Seems much more efficient to use a program thereby saving time and making more $$$. (You can probably tell I'm still fairly to this). TIA
Ask the techs where you work. Probably software issue with their program. nm

You need to know the program your company is using to count so you can compare.

once you use Express scribe to program it should work with any USB compatible software too.

Anybody work with a company bue do your own billling to them, count like 65 cpl and use a program ho

Phone Tools is a Bvrp software program that allows you to not only fax and receive data/documents v
your pc (including coversheet and confirmation of date/time received), but can also act as an answering machine. It's a very good product. The receipient/s just need to make sure that their fax machine is turned on and has a paper supply loaded (thereby saving you the expense of purchasing reams for this purpose). If you expect to receive faxes, you also need to be sure that the program is running and set the control to fax modem, rather than answering machine.
A WAV pedal controls playback of voice files. You need a software program through which to play the
The term "WAV pedal" has become a generic term. The software that you use will determine the file type(s) that you are able to play on your computer. You use either a pedal or hot keys (Fkeys) to control that playback. As stated below, Express Scribe is one such software program and it is free. It can be found by clicking on the link below.
Does Quick Books/Quicken count the lines or do you use a separate program for that?

looking for line counting software
 What do you use for line counting software? I am currently using Total Assistant Pro. It was counting accurately when I first purchased it. I even downloaded the free trial version to make sure it counted accurately before purchasing. (I charge by the straight line no matter how many characters are on it!). I'm not getting anywhere with support.

Line Counter Software...
Hey there ....
Does anyone have a lead on any line counting software for under $30-$40? I have TexTally, but it does not calculate the same way my Word 2002 calculates.
Thanx for your time.

Line counting software?
Are there any free line counting software products out there that are any good? If not what is the best one one that isn't all that expensive? TIA, Wanda
Line Counting Software
I would like info on line counting software so I can see if they are calculated correctly.
Is there line counting software that sm
will allow you to chose gross lines BUT also let you say that no line can be longer than a set amount of characters? So in other words if my clients lines are set so long and small that 95 char are on each line but my contract reads a line shall be no more than 65 characters, the software can pick up both gross lines over 5 characters and gross lines no longer than 65 characters???
Am I being clear? Anyone know of invoicing/counting software that can do that?
Thank you.
line counting software
I am looking for software to count gross lines. I only have one doctor I need it for, so I don't want to spend a lot. Does anyone know of a good product for this?
thank you!
Line Count...
Does anyone know if the Word 2000 line counter is generally the same as what most MT companies go by? I'm trying to see how I do being paid by lines as opposed to report.
Line count. No way, no how, ever. nm
Nope!
Line Count
I have worked for SS for a few years and I DO NOT like the fact you cannot check individual line counts. I do not like having to trust someone to be in charge of my line count and I have no way of verifying it is correct. The line counts bounce all of the place. Try it yourself. I have a line count program and one day it is a couple of lines off and others over 10%. Not good and I can't believe they get away with this.
changes in DQS line count..sm
Apparently, now the ASR count is included in the "transcription" count. As of yesterday, I had to
look under "correction" to see ASR count and as of today, there is no "correction" listed. Hmmm.
line count
When they first started ASR it was under transcription, then they separated it, now put it back. Actually QC is a level higher than QA, at least that is how it has been explained to me, if QA can't fix it then it goes to QC
mq line count
Yes, I was surprised to see that suddenly happen on Sunday, I believe it was. Seems like explanations should be given to us before or at least shortly after making such a change. Maybe their lawyers suggested they do it this way? I have not yet had a pay cut for ASR.
