Microsoft Word Help Please -- New Template Setup

I have done this before and for the life of my I cannot remember how I did it. Can someone help me out?  Okay.  This new doctor would like heading and numbers under each heading.  He wants me to tab over from the number to begin typing and the words to sort of "wrap" so that the second line would not return to under the number.  I will try to show it here.

Treatment:

1.     The patient will ____________________________

        the rest of the sentence would continue under the words "The patient.

I am going to try to make sense, here. 

I am trying to make a template for a new client I was just given by my MTSPO.  my template is a bunch of letters.  At the top is typical letterhead.  They want this starting at 1" from the top.  Then below will be the rest of the letter.  They want this centered on the rest of the page.  Right now, since I am just making a template to fill in, I have the date line starting at the 3 in. line, the RE: starting at the 3 in. line, Dear: at the left margin, and a couple other sentences and closing and cc line and such.  This is already on the template so that I just fill it in when I am transcribing.  They will dictate 18-20 of these, all in a row, so I do one letter and then just move on the next page to fill in to create another letter, so on and so on.  Does that make sense?  I am trying to make a template for this. 

 I am SO frustrated.  I am going to be up all night if I can't get this accomplished! 

My company sent me a template.  How do I convert that and save it in Word so I don't have to retype it all the time?

You should save it as a template (.dot) in the same directory that your other Word templates are located. The default directory would be something like this:

c:/document and settings/your name/application data/microsoft/templates

If you can't see the Application Data folder, go to the Control Panel and open the Folder Options file. Click on the View tab and make sure the button for Show hidden files and folders is selected.

I hope I can explain this right:

I can be typing along just fine in Word, and suddenly it will "blank out", causing me to retype sometimes two or three sentences. There are times this happens three or four times per report, and times it does not happen all day. I have to stop, click with the mouse back to where I was, and retype. Does this make sense and does anyone know what I can do to get it to stop? Thanks!  

For the first time in my 5 years of MTing, I am going to be working in Word and I need to make macros as well as auto text and I am clueless how to do this.

I know it's a lot to ask but y'all are the best.  Can someone walk me through the steps.  You'll be my new BFF, I promise. :)

From time to time I try to add a word into a paragraph and it starts taking out the beginning of the next word so I end up having to type the whole paragraph again.   Today I am trying to change the first word of a normal and it starts taking out the next word.  I cannot type the wole normal again.  I hope you understand what I mean.  Does anyone have a quick fix.  TIA

Is there a place on-line where I can purchase it and download it?  If not, where can I get a good deal on it?  I need it ASAP!

Thanks

I recently put installed Microsoft word 2005 in my computer. I use MT world for my job.  Every time I send something after I type to update it sits in updating document for a long time. Has any one else have this problem or have a solution.   No one else in else at the job has this problem but me. 

Is there any way to have Word open up  automatically with the view screen at 125% (rather than 100%)?  Right now I have to change it each time I start it up.

Thx for any help.

When I type out 1st, 2nd, 3rd, how do I get the letters to type of normally instead of  like this: 3^rd

I have a lot to learn about Word. :)

When I click on a letter within a word, the whole word is automatically highlighted and selected.  Is there an option I can change so it doesn't do this?

Thx for any help.

Does anyone know how to change a title of a document?  I have named my document and I have to change the name.

Thank you very much!

I had to do recovery on my computer and I added a newer Microsoft Office.  This is MUCH different than my old version so I wanted to see if anyone can help me out.  On old version if I used AutoText for saving smaller things after typing a couple of letters it would pop up with the info that I wanted.  I can't figure out if this new version does that or not.  From what I have read I can't find that it does, but if anyone has any information that it does still do this it would be greatly appreciated!

How many of you have used this or are using it?  I never heard of it before and was wondering if it was worth the investment.

Okay I am typing a interview and am wondering how to get all the words to automatically tab over so I don't go back and have to do it manually.  It's like this

Interviewer:           Response XXXXXXXXXXXXXX ffadXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

and all words of response need to be under the response.  Hope that makes sense.

I have Microsoft Word 2003 and for some reason it is not correcting the spelling on capital words (like in a heading).  I cannot figure out how to get it to correct capital words?

Thanks

I have forgotten how to make it indent the numbers automatically in Microsoft Word.  Help from anyone.  Thanks in advance

Hi,

Does anyone know how to create shortcuts or word expansions in microsoft word?  Thanks so much!!!

I have two different IC positions.  I sought out the second one when the first started shorting my pay and paying late, intending to replace the first completely. 

However, both are IC positions..The one requires that I type 1000 lines between the hours of 6 a.m. and 10 p,m. I can work overnight if I want to, and often do...

The other just has a daily requirement and I can do that anywhere in a 24 hour period...

However.  I can put out 1000 in four hours..and so I usually do 2 hour blocks...I will do 2 hours for one company, and then two hours for the other...and so on and so forth...the first company, which I now have a part time commitment but still do full time work(they consider FT 10,000 lines in a 15 day cycle), has had a tendency to be slow and run low on work recently...The second company does not ever seem to run low as it is a MAJOR hospital in a largely populated area and there is both inpatient and outpatient dictation. 

I am a single mother of two children under 5, with a car payment and a mortgage.  I am not accustomed to living beyond my means but their father just left last year and I have bills to pay(he took 4,000 a month in income with him when he went and the odd twist on the whole thing is the judge ordered no child support because we agreed on joint custody, even though I am primary)

Stuff happens and we all have to make a living..I remember six years ago making more than I am now and that is insane...wages are supposed to go up, and not down...and that was a local service and I now work for two national!!! go figure

How this is unethical or illegal I do not know as long asthe requirements for both are met.  I think perhaps the definition for both terms needs to be revisited if poster is using them to refer to a situation that meets the criteria for neither. 

Just my 2 cents worth, anyway
