I have a Word document I named PRODUCTION and have a table inserted in it that is several columns wide. Across the top, in the first row, I list the different worktypes (WTs)...such as Op Note, Discharge, ER, etc. NOTE: I separated the first row from the rest of the table so the WT number listed is not counted in the AutoSum later.
The transcription software I have to use is Word based. So, after I spell check, the very last thing I do before submitting my document is hit ALT+T then hit W. It brings up the Word document counts. I note the characters-with-spaces figure, use ALT+TAB to toggle over to my PRODUCTION document and enter that number under the correct WT. I color-coded every 5th row so I know automatically at a glance how many documents are listed under each WT. When I get a few documents done, I go to the next field under the last count listed and hit the AutoSum button for a total.
I keep up with mine by WT because I have some adjustments to make. However, if you only have to keep up with strictly the number of charac/spaces or whatever without adjustments, then just keep a running tab IN A TABLE and hit that AutoSum key when you want the total. That way you always know how many lines you have done.
It is all automatic for me now.
