My Stedmans keeps not loading or something. It was working fine when I quit work Friday night. Then yesterday it would not work. I finally did a system restore and it worked after that fine. Then today, same thing, it will not work.
Can someone help me out with any suggestions?

You get a free trial of the spellchecker. Later, if you choose to buy, I think it is $29.99. Don't know of any others.
Speller problem..
I need help with a speller setting, when I change a word that does not happen to be correct the speller does not say it is incorrect it just accepts it... I have this on a laptop but works correctly on my desktop and asks a second time if the word is incorrect a second time... but on the laptop it passes it over even if wrong... what have I failed to setup on the laptop... hope this makes sense... and thanks for any help...
Speller program name?

Downloading medical speller ? (sm)
I googled medical dictionaries and spellers and I've found several. Some are free. What's the concensus? Are the free ones just as good as buying the Stedman's or something comparable? Opinions please.
Thanks. 
Stedman's Speller Question
I have two accounts in Microsoft Word and just received a new account and they use Word Perfect. Does anyone know how to bring the Stedmans speller from Word into both Word and Word Perfect? Alice
Question about stedman's speller...
Sorry if on the wrong board, but am desperate... I have just had to start working for a second company using my laptop... I have all setup working perfectly except for the stedman's speller and is on my PC. I did figure how to take the custom dictionary and put it in the laptop, and it does pull from that, my question is how do I get the actual stedmans over to the laptop to work... I have a feeling the company provided it and it may not be able to share and may have a file that will not allow... any thoughts are appreciated, am desperate!!! Need that Stedman's :)
Can you load the Stedman's speller onto the puter there? Can't imagine not having it! nm

Make sure you have selected Medical as your speller type.
Tools, Options, Spelling and Grammer. Select Medical from the drop down list under speller type (right side).
www.walmart.com has the great grey Dorlands medical speller even!

The speller works perfectly fine so if you are having problems contact me and I will
My email addy is admin@mtstars.com. Free or not, it's a great software, so perhaps you just need some assistance.
Thanks...so much for Stedmans nm
I should have googled it. Thanks again.
Stedmans
in Word click on Tools when you fully expand this option it may list Stedmans here if not then Click Tools then options and spelling and grammar and Stedmans should be listed under your custom dictionary.
Feel free to email if you need more assistance.
Stedmans's
hi. Stedman's does run in the background. as long as your word dictionary is set to CUSTOM.DIC, it will be using it. There may be a folder in program files, and that is a good thing, in case you want to uninstall it. If you check your "add and remove programs" it may be listed in there, as well. as long as your medical words are not being underlined in red, you are fine.
I use Stedmans and
it works fine with Vista
Stedmans
Thanks for the links.
You can try Stedmans...

Stedmans CMT
Has anyone here purchased the Stedmans CD to ready for the CMT exam. I am thinking about purchasing and was looking for some feedback about that one or any others some of you have tried and found that worked for you. I understand the exam is very difficult and I really want to take it and pass it for that matter LOL. Any help and guidance is much appreciated.
about stedmans
Hello, I just went to Word 2007, which is very helpful but now I have no Stedman's. My Stedman's is very old. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get Stedman's O7 or 08 cheaper than 99.00.
Thanks so much. Have a wonderful holiday.

wp and stedmans
Go into your wordperfect and open the spellchecker. There should be a tab for user dictionaries. Open that and insert new dictionary. There should be 3 with the stedmans title. Use all three
stedmans or you can
or you can just run the disc again and download it into your wordperfect. It should ask you what program you want to put it in
stedmans
Yeah, I know, that's kinda what I'm thinking too. It's the only one I've used in all of my MT career, so kind of afraid to purchase something else. Thanks!
How did you get Stedmans SpellChecker to
Did you have to change some settings somewhere? Please give me the details because when I try to install it it just quits the install process. Thanks so much
Please help - Stedmans/WP 5.1 question...
I recently switched to a new computer (Windows XP) and for some reason I cannot get my Stedmans spellchecker to work. I use WP 5.1 dos and my Stedmans is version 6 for dos. In WP location of files, it shows Stedmans correctly but when I run spell check, some really ancient version shows up. Any ideas? Thanks.
Stedmans GI & GU words

You NEED the spellchecker. Go stedmans.com and get

I rarely use my Stedmans
Its so much easier just to type in what your looking for! I must have 20 books just sitting on my shelf!
Don't buy Stedmans Path/Lab CD!
I'm SO mad at Stedman's! I finally decided to go electronic and bought a med/surg equip CD and a path/lab CD. No problems with the former, but the latter will not work and disables MS Word! And I'm not the only one, as you can Google it on the internet and others are having the same problems. Somehow it interacts wrongly with different virus/spam protectors and will start throwing pages and pages of licensing cleanup alerts into your task manager, disabling your word processing. I called tech support last Friday and they said they'd get back to me. I called them back Tuesday and they said they still hadn't figured it out. I called them today, still nothing, so I got mad and returned the stupid CD for the book. Six days of "trying to figure it out"???? He had said before they could install an unlicensed copy since the licensing was the problem, but then days later said they couldn't figure it out.
They also send you an invoice saying your payment is due by X date (with the return envelope and the space to fill in how much you are paying of the total) when you've already paid by credit card. They also charged almost $20 shipping for 4 CDs that weigh a few ounces. I'm NOT happy!
Meditech and Stedmans
Does anyone use Meditech and Stedmans Medical/Pharmaceutical Spellchecker together? I just purchased Stedmans to use while typing in Meditech and now someone told me it would not work? I have not tried it yet though. I will keep Stedmans though to use in Word so no big money loss.
cmt reference stedmans sm
My main reason for wanting to purchase the Stedmans course is to get the feel of the test itself. This way I am not going in totally blind as to how the test is done. I have read the description online, but would really like to have an actual pre-type test to give me a feel for the platform. That is really what I am most worried about. That and grammar. I have a great accuracy rating, I am just worried about not passing and want to be as prepared as I can be. With that being said is the person out there who was offering the book for sale. I would like to know how much you would like for it. Thanks.
I received MTStars Flashtype and MTStars Internet Speller!

my stedmans lab book lists
it as alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency, both the older edition, and also the new edition
The Stedmans Word of the Day calendar.

word97 and stedmans or cust dic
not sure if this is right place, but HELPPPPP......

feeling frustrated
i purchased it directly at stedmans.com (nm)

Strange--I JUST got an email from Stedmans--sm

wow. I just got a Stedmans book for 1.79 on Amazon.
Brand new! I never thought to look on there for a book!
Using Stedmans spellchecker with Meditech
Does anyone know if a Stedman's Medical/Pharmaceutical spellchecker works with Meditech program?
I currently use PCShorthand with it but mine does not recognize drug names. I was thinking of buying Stedman's Spellchecker but how does this one work with Meditech. I friend bought Stedmans and loves it so I was thinking of doing thet same but my friend is typing in Word and not Meditech.
Does anyone know where a person could get a tutorial on Meditech as Help Button on the Meditech Help section when I am working is kinda of confusion. This is what I get working as a remote IC person. Trying to learn this system a little better.
Thanks Pauline
Stedmans Ortho book shows
both on pagge 455, plantar flexion and then plantarflexion injury, plantarflexion-inversion test. Maybe it is supposed to be by context ????
Does anyone know how to convert the Stedmans word list to
If so please share how. Thank you!
EXText and Stedmans 2006 spellchecker?
Anybody know if they are compatible or if there are any glitches I should be aware of before I plunk down the dough? Thanks!
I wouldn't hold Stedmans accountable for
not being able to open zip files. Do you have a zip program on your computer? If so, just use it to unzip the files. WinZip can be downloaded for an initial free trial. When you unzip it, save the .exe file to the Stedmans folder, then click "run" if prompted. If not prompted to run, click your start button, click run, and browse for the Stedmans folder and select its .exe file to run. It should then begin to install and you should follow the prompts of questions it will ask you.
Always Dorlands' first and foremost. Stedmans is a poor second.

Emdat/Incribe with Word/Stedmans
I would like to know if anyone who types in this program is able to use the Microsoft Word option and Stedman's Spellcheck. That is, without copying and pasting.
Stedmans has it with NO hyphen; that's how I've been typing for years. NM
We were not 'allowed' to load anything to their system, inclg Stedmans
nm
Stedmans for word reference, ADI or Quick Look for drugs.
I also like Tessier's surgical word book by Saunders and I'm pretty sure I have a Vera Pyle or two around here a well.
My Stedmans spellcheck disappeared with SP 2 for Office 2003!
An update from Microsoft of SP 2 for Office 2003, a reboot and now when I open Word my Stedmans spellcheck doesn't work. I tried to reload it and that doesn't work, either. Anyone else have this happen? I looked and it's in "Proof" for dictionaries as LEXB4SP, but it's not loading up and replacing the Word spellcheck. Now what do I do?
I went to desktop icon for both DRUG BOOK and STEDMANS. Clicked
How old are your drug book and stedman's? (I bought mine about 6 years ago now). I hate to not be able to use them because I have added so much to them through the years. ugh.
Stedmans Medical Dictionary or MD for the Health Prof and Nursing?
Which one do you prefer?
Need additional cardiac reference - have Stedmans - need something more detailed about heart caths,
