{@KEY BkSp}-pack-per-year is for Shorthand. Using the semicolon works with both Shorthand and
;yo = -year-old
;py= -pack-year
etc...
ShortHand works just like that. $100. And you can try it out first.

Shorthand works wonderfully with DQS

Shorthand, I believe works in all Windows
programs. It works in my email, etc. so should work in Works also
I use Shorthand. It works great in there. sm
The Scribe platform is easy to use once you are used to it. My lines have doubled in the past two months. I use Shorthand for EVERYTHING.
Go to www.pcShorthand.com. There is a trial version.
Shorthand is by far the best expander and works with everything. nm

ShortHand is up to version 9, at least, now, as it's what I have. Maybe v.10 is in the works?? nm

Shorthand works with Mysis
Haven't tried any others but I use SH with it.
Yes, Shorthand works with Meditech.
I have only worked in one version of Meditech, Meditech Magic, and it is easy to use. There are other versions, though. I'm sure they are easy also.
Just make sure you get a list of what the function keys do in your version.
Shorthand works everywhere in Windows.
Can't speak for that platform specifically... but ShortHand for Windows works everywhere, including e-mail, instant messaging, and every other place that you type. They even have a 30-day free trial so you can download and test it out before laying out the $$.
Try opening up ShortHand before log in. Works with other systems like that. nm

FlashType works just like ShortHand except is cheaper.

Use ExText for 1 job. Love it! Works with my ShortHand. Wish they all used it! nm

MTStars FlashType works just like Shorthand and is $59.95.

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

Shorthand works great with DQS and is half the price

Try FlashType, it works just like Shorthand but is half the price.
see link below
It is an older DOS-type environment - works well with Shorthand. sm
Lots of menus, especially in radiology, but ShortHand helps you get through them very quickly is you write macros to just stop where you need to.
It can be very productive with good line counts if you are paid by the line.
Personally, I loved it, but that was because I did very well with our incentive program on it.
MTStars FlashType works just like Shorthand and costs less.
It also works on Vista. See link below.

I use Shorthand for Windows and love it. I have found it works well with most every program. SM
I have used with Word and Word Perfect. I have used it with Meditech and Cerner. I have used it with RadNet and StarNavigator for Radiology. I can use it with my email applications and on the internet if I choose. If the Expander is open and running, you can use it with any and every window program you use.
I was really simple to learn to use too. Very user friendly.
FlashType is cheaper and works equally as well as Shorthand and has a free demo.

You should not be having that problem, Shorthand works "ouside any program." Contact Shorthan

You can download Shorthand, choose the "capitalize first letter" option. SH works with ExText

Shorthand works for Radnet. I love Radnet BTW! nm

You can use Shorthand in ANY program, it works outside your program
I have never found a platform it did not work with and I have worked on several different versions of Meditech. Just start using it.
SpeedType and Shorthand are the exact same program. Shorthand is lots cheaper and also has a trial.

Shorthand and SpeedType are exact same program. Shorthand will cost you lots less.
you can import your autocorrect into Shorthand.
I took shorthand too. But it sure comes in helpful for my expanders. I view words in shorthand for
i did use shorthand once in a job but i was so nervous the "boss" took pity and dictated the report on dictaphone.
Full Word is in the Works "Suite," not plain Works.
Works saves files in a different format, but you can open them in Word if you have the correct filter installed.
If it is Shorthand, save the SPF file to a disk, then if you buy Shorthand yourself....
you can just drop the SPF file into it. That is not dishonest since you are the one who put the macros in. I am sure is it is another Expander there is a way to save the macro file and then drop it in the expander you buy on your own.
RIGHT!!! Someone who works 16 hours and someone who works 60 will have a HUGE difference. NM

Emdat works with Instant Text Por V - ony version that works with Emdat - nm

Shorthand ? sm
Is Shorthand compatible with and is it much different than the standard autocorrect in Word?
I use Shorthand with DQS
It is very compatible. You can set it up so that you can see a hint window while you type. I tried using the built in Expander in DQS, and you have to have a great memory, because there is no hint window or suggestion window, like Smartype. I also know that Instant Text is compatible with DQS, also; but I prefer Shorthand. I hear so many great things about Smartype and wish I could learn it, but it won't work with DQS; however, there is a way you can get around that. You can use Smartype and transcribe in Word, set your font size to 14 and save your file in Rich Text Format, then copy and paste into the DQS platform. Then select all and hit Ctrl 5 to get the spacing right. It sounds like a lot of steps and you will also lose your place as far as leaving any QA markers, so I personally don't care for the hassle, but I know of some MTs that do it that way, so you can try it.
Hope this helps.

cool, i'll look into that thanks
Shorthand SM
Shorthand should work with ChartScript, since ChartScript uses Microsoft Word, but you would want to disable ChartScript's built in expander. If you are referring to ChartScript.net, Shorthand should work in that too.
shorthand
Wow! Thanks! I had asked that question a little while ago on the production board.
shorthand sm
Where did you find a free program? Did it load right into Word for Windows?
Shorthand
The Hospital I came from uses Meditech with Shorthand-, works fine. There is something built into Meditech like a word Expander but everyones stuff mixes in together and was a nightmare- love shorthand.
Shorthand
I would be very interested.

I use ShortHand with Meditech. Works great....
In Shorthand, there must be (sm)
a shortcut key or something that allows you to add on the fly?? The only thing I see is to actually open the ShortHand window then I can click the insert button on my keyboard or click on the little "add" icon. Is there a key combination for doing this while I am in the document - to just bring that "add" window up?
I use Shorthand. nm

Shorthand
Is there a way to copy text with bold headers into shorthand, bold headers and all? The text copies fine but I have to go back and use the special keys for adding the bold back in at every header because the bold from the finished text will not carry over. I've gone through the help section but maybe I'm not asking "how to" the right way. It just seems that my old version of SH carried everything over, but I can't remember. Anyhow, if anyone has the answer, would appreciate it.
Shorthand
No, you hit Ctrl K and B before the entry, type the entry how you want it, and then hit Ctrl K and B again to toggle the bolding off. It will come up with a little window showing you the B is the next key typed or something to that effect, and you click 'OK' both times that window comes up.
Shorthand
If you need everything in CAPS use CAPS Lock. If you only want the first letter of the sentence just do as you would for a regular sentence by holding down the Shift key and type the first letter whatever it may be. It will bring up your expansion with the first letter only capitalized.
Need help w/Shorthand 9
I downloaded the 30-day trial of Shorthand. I cannot figure out how to bold a word in MSWord. Every time I try to input CTL+B into the expansion, the program puts the - {@KEY - or something like that. I have read and tried everything I could find in the Help section with no luck. Can someone type out what I need to input to get a word capitalized and bolded. I would really, really appreciate the help. I am thinking it must be something super easy that I am just not getting! TIA
