Thanks, but can you tell me what a C-phone is? I've seen them mentioned on here, but have no ide
nm
I've heard of things like the "boosteroo" mentioned above ... however...
as far as I can that works only with headsets ... I have the same problem and did some googling and as far as I can tell "powered speakers" may be the simplest answer ... they run about $50 a pair and have a ??woofer -- anyway it's a box that's plugged in to power and to the computer sound output --- the speakers then come off that.
Target (and probably everyone else) carries these. I suspect teens and gamers and music mixers "need" these to "fill the room with sound"... Amazon has some computer speakers that are over $300)
I have terrible TMJ and cannot wear my headset all the time ... the sudden loud noises (like beepers brought up to chest level) just kill my ears.
From their help section

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. :)
found this in the help section--sm
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
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. 
Get Turbo Tax, it has a whole section for this and asks you if you have this, this, that...sm
By using this I found 2 deductions I had no idea I could take.

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."
. . . . and what are your educational credentials, my dear?
I use a plastic storage bin and cut a section out for him to ...sm
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.

They're WONDERFUL - if you've never tried them, do. They are in an orange package.
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.
Alt-P-M, but you can't adjust margins without a section break.
Not sure what you are trying to do.
Despite having just read the Subscriber Agreement, Section #10...
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.
If you call qualifying for food stamps & section 8 housing
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.
I use EXText with my current job and I've used at a couple of other jobs I've had. I've ne
used DocQscribe, but I have used Meditech, Cerner, Vianeta, the Precyse platform (I can't remember the name), Dolbey, and Lanier platform I think was called Cequence (?).
Out of all the different platforms I have typed on, I have liked EXText the best. In my opinion, it's very user friendly, easy to learn, and I really like ESP which is the built in abbreviation expander. Plus it is very easy to create your own normals which I love. My fingers literally never leave the keyboard because there are macro keys for everything. You can use your mouse if you prefer or learn the function macros. I love it. I think I'm more productive on EXText than with any other platform.
you mentioned everything you could
think of except the pay. How IS the pay???
I should have mentioned...
I get paid by the report! ARGH!!!! Its weird how most MT's get paid by the line and hence love long reports while those of us paid by report LOVE short reports! We have this one new doc who never says more than a sentence or two at the most unless its a CT or MRI, in which case he says four or five sentences....love it!
Actually, as mentioned below
I have worked for MQ, twice! Before and after DQS. As I said, it's up to whomever as to how they want to count lines (divisor, footers, headers, numbers, spaces, symbols, etc). It is not DQS - It is DocQmanage, which runs DQS!
Did you see SE or IC mentioned
I didn't.
So if they don't address me I don't pay attention.
And all they addressed in that letter was Full time and Part time employees.
Looks like somebody else mentioned this above. sm
I keep an eye on it when I transcribe since I've changed it in my expander, but haven't yet run into the cc in combination with prostate, but I'm sure it'll happen.
I don't think anybody mentioned
Harrison Ford -- I love his movies. One of my favorites is Regarding Henry.
It had nothing to do with what you mentioned
and I will NOT post it, it's just too nasty.
to add to what the others have mentioned ... sm
If you charge a gross line, you might consider how many characters/spaces possible you wish your gross line to be made up of. For instance, if your font is New Times Roman 12, your possible characters per line will be less than if it were New Times Roman 10. And if your margins are 1 inch, that's a whole heck of a lot of typing to make up a line in New Times Roman 12. My gross lines are made up of a *possible* 65 spaces/characters per gross line, no matter what font/size they see. If you go this route, gross line and calculate this way, make sure your clients understand how you are charging so you don't have any conflicts.
No I just mentioned RP because
there was a dramatic difference. It made me wonder if there was something better than ES to play dictation with.
yes...but I should have mentioned...
That I do primarily VR. I just bought an ergonomic keyboard (MIcrosoft) and while I think I would get used to it at some point, I'm not sure it's the best choice for someone who does 95% VR. So actually I need thoughts on this as I am pretty much hating this new design and am working on my old one.
You can say that again. Sorry I mentioned it.
:
Ok, I should have mentioned.....
it would be working for the SAME company, not two jobs, just my one job, but working here in my own state most of the time and then for 2 weeks every few months or so in another state. I know it wouldn't be my employer's business if I were to get another job at the different company.
I was wondering if I had to let my employer know that I would be working from a different state now and again.
You also mentioned that
you are new to the game, so I thought I might recommend some good quality headset earphones. I found them yesterday and fell in love with them immediately. I've had a lot of earphones trying to find just the right fit. Nike Vapor adjustable sport headphones. might check with www.philips.com They have 3-way adjustments and the sound quality is magnificent! Can you tell I am sick of bad quality earphones? :)
have a good experience instead of bad. Its a long haul if you choose this as a career and you have to take care of yourself.
I don't know if this has already been mentioned here, but
on the other job board, there was a job listed that wanted 10 years experience!!! Good luck with that one...
Have you mentioned to them...
that you would like to visit them more often but it will require them having internet service? Being the type of work that we do, you have the option to travel anywhere and still work as long as you have a pc/internet service...just as you explained it to us, have you explained it to them in that fashion? How much will it cost for you to get internet service? A friend of mines visited me and she had a lap top with an air card and. she told me that if someone near you has a satelite that you could tap into (not stealing) but somehow you would be able to tap into their service provider and get internet service. Speak to someone about how the air card works?
