Is or has anyone worked on the platform of virtual transcription?  I know it requires a different wavpedal than I currently have, but other than that I know nothing about it and have not been successful in finding out anything before I start.  Can anyone give me a heads up?

We have tried a few different ways.  My son who is currently in 5th grade was diagnosed with Asperger syndrome/high-functioning autism.  The public schools cannot seem to work with him.  We have done the traditional homeschooling route, which has its pros and cons.  There are several virtual schools around now, public schooling, but done at home by the parents, check out www.k12.com to see the options in the different states.  We attended one in Pennsylvania for 2 years and are going to be in the Florida one this year.  My son loves the curriculum.  Good luck!

DH just took me to my favorite beach for a quick vacation.   It is Shell Island in NC (basically Wrightsville Beach, but the end at Mason Inlet)

We arrived at Shell Island resort and discovered our room was on the 9th (top) floor.  PERFECT!  The dogs were staying with the in-laws in nearby Wilmington, so no worries there.

The temperature on Thursday was 82 degrees.  The water was 81 degrees.   People were few.  We walked down to the inlet, where the surf is all disorganized with no crashing waves.  The water stays shallow for a long way out, only knee deep to waist deep.  I floated out there, often walking along on my hands, with the swirling water gently pushing me this way and that.   Seagulls called to us.  Pelicans did their gliding flight just inches above the water. 

After our ocean swim we got in the pool.  Then we laid out on the chaise lounge chairs to dry.  The ocean breeze gently buffeted us in a lazy fashion until we were nearly dry and went in.

We went back to the room and I sorted my shells out on a table on the deck.  Seagulls came by to try to entice me to throw food.  Now and then, pelicans in V formation would glide right by me, so close I could have reached out and touched the feathers of the nearest member. 

We went out to The Oceanic restaurant.  I had the Oceanic Platter with broiled fish, fabulous scallops, shrimp, and a crab cake that rivaled those in Baltimore.   It was all fabulous.

I had a fabulous time.   Vacations are good. 

Has anyone done this?  It looks good....but I need to know before I spend the money. 

Thanks.

Virtual Line w/ Personal Ring - $3.00/mo.

Virtual Line With Personal Ring allows you to assign up to 3 directory numbers to the same equipment and telephone line.  Each number has a distinctive ring so you know which number is receiving a call. If 1of the numbers is being used, the other number(s) will appear busy to callers. If you subscribe to Call Waiting, each number has a distinctive call waiting tone to identify which number is receiving a call.

You could do all kinds of stuff (do a Google search under virtual assistant, there are some webpages that explain stuff).  U-Haul I believe also hires people to do phone customer service from home.  If you look on guru . com they have people who advertise for odd jobs and lots of them are virtual assistant kind of stuff.

Just some ideas.  You could also do daycare, pampered chef, that kind of stuff.  :)

I assigned my macro to ALT-B, but you can assign any keys you want so long as they are not already in use for another function.

To create a new macro you click:

Tools -> Macros -> Record a new Macro

A window will open up that says:

Macro Name:  In the box type in the name you wish to give your macro. (I simply typed in AltB).

In the middle of the window you will see "Assign Macro to" with two buttons that say "Toolbar"  and "Keyboard".  Click the Keyboard button.

This opens a new window and your cursor will be in the field that says "Press new short cut key".  You will hit the series of keys you want to assign your macro to (in my case it was Alt+B).

Below you should see "Currently assigned to [unassigned}"  If it says it is assigned, you will need to pick other keys to assign your macro to.

Finally, click assign.

Now you are in your document and there will be a little box that has a stop button and pause button.  Every keystroke you make from this point on is recorded and will be assigned to your macro.

Now you want hit Ctrl+F which will bring up the find window and type in a character that you want your cursor to jump to.  I use the asterix (*).  Then click the stop button on the little box.

Then test our your macro.  I have report templates I use that look like this:

CHIEF COMPLAINT:  *

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS:  *

And every time I hit Alt+B, I jump to the next asterix.

I hope this helps.  It sounds kind of confusing when you are trying to explain how to do it, but once you do it it is really pretty simple.

Yes, it will take a bit of time, but you will then have a test that belongs to you.  Any that you might find on the internet are most likely not meant for the use of others. 

Create bookmark names (patient, date, etc.). Put a cross-reference to those bookmark names where you want them to appear in the document. Save the template. Now, when you open the template, create a new document, fill in the patient name, date, etc. and mark with the appropriate bookmark. When you're finished with that, hit F9 and it will update all fields.

Both bookmark and cross-reference are found under Insert; cross-reference is a subcategory of Reference.

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.
