but wanted a way to change it so I didn't have to do that every time I go into Escription. Thanks though.

In WP, anyone know how to permanently change 'View' in the search
window so it always shows a list and not thumbnails? Maybe this is a system-wide thing? Thanks.
Format change, no announcement?
Here it is after 1:00 p.m., and there has been a big change to the templates for the account I type for a service, which suggests there may or may not be a change in the instruction we have about strickly adhering to this format, no matter what order the dictator dictates, and still there has been no e-mail to clarify what's going on.
We are graded on how closely we adhere to format. Why wouldn't the company send out an e-mail to tell us what's going on? This co is usually good with the e-mails, and since they are very busy and get way too many e-mails, wouldn't it make sense that they'd send one out as soon as they knew something? I know they won't grade us down for not knowing, but if formatting is important enough to grade us on, doesn't a change warrant a simple e-mail? They rather do 20 individual e-mails?
Weird.
Can't you change it in Format/Paragraph/Line spacing like
s
It's no wonder so many of them are permanently closing. (sm)
In some cities, what used to be a 5-minute ambulance ride (with a REAL problem, not a splinter) has turned into a half-hour search for a hospital that still has one.
Are you with a company? Their software might have something permanently set in

Venting vs permanently negative
Sure, sometimes we just want to vent. We get it off our chest, get a little validation, then we feel better.
But some folks just don't get over it. There's plenty of them at on-site jobs as well. Complaining becomes a way of life. We've all met them, they search diligently for what's wrong with any and every situation. They are full of dire predictions when anyone else is happy, when anything changes, when they get out of bed in the morning.
On this board, I've seen many people unable to let go once they get it off their chest. They make sure to bash a company they worked for a few years back every time its name comes up. If anyone tries to give them a suggestion to improve a problem, they shoot it down in the nastiest way. These people claim to have tried "everything" and sneer at anyone who keeps trying, and they never admit they are venting for venting's sake.
I think the point the OP was making is valid, because there are many chronic complainers here. They are very unhappy in general, and they refuse to be proactive and try to change all the wrongs they see. Its hard to give them any sympathy when all they want to do is argue and be very hateful to anyone that doesn't agree that everything is awful and nothing can be done about it.

Just my opinion, but if you are permanently disabled, you are not able to work, right? I don't t

Did you try right clicking on the blue bar?
There should be a place to check for an address bar.
Not the OP, but you had me there until you mentioned clicking.

By clicking on the link in the email, sm
you activate a trojan that copies your passwords and the hacker can get into your account. I ALWAYS sent mine to spoof@paypal.com and no longer get those emails.
Try right clicking on your desktop, select - sm
"Arrange Icons by", then select "Show desktop icons" (a check mark should be next to this for them to appear). Other than that I have no idea how to fix it.
Or is it that brew your 2 icons are clicking??
Just kidding. I thought at first you were trying to say a beer wouldn't hurt. Yep, popcorn can liven up the looooooong evenings once in awhile, I know where you're coming from.
Anyone can send an email by clicking on your posts
and clicking reply by email. They won't see your email address unless you respond to them, but they can send and email. Anyone. You have to report the email to MTStars admin as spam. There is a link to click in any email that comes through our servers. If you don't notify admin, they can't block the email address. Please, please, please report them and do not respond. If you respond, you are freely showing them your email address.
clicking on your post to see an answer was a waste of time

Even 4.5 is too low. doctors do not change - they still hem and haw, change, change stuff along wit
It is just not enough for the work. Speech is great on the wrists but you are not just reading what is typed, you are making a lot of changes. I have a hard time doubling a lot of days with all the changes I have to make. Just my opinion.
Don't change. I had to change back to cable. SuddenLink DSL stinks! nm

I knew him well before I asked him out, so I knew
a long time before our first date that he was the one for me. He didn't know it that soon, but I did.
Change provider vs change to business plan
In your place, I would seriously consider changing providers if there were others available in your area, but I'd ask around about their service quality first. It may not be any better. If there are no other providers, then consider changing your service package to a business account rather than residential. They're usually more expensive, but they also tend to get faster service if there's a problem.
Last summer, I had no electricity for 3 days due to severe storms, but there were some 600,000 in the same boat with me. We just had to wait it out. It's a downside of working at home.
change attitude, change life
The first thing you need to change is that defeatist attitude! I know that's hard at times like this, but that's when you need to most.
I won't go into detail, but my financial situation is also at an all-time low, we couldn't even exchange gifts., daughter in hospital twice, & no med insurance)..but then I heard about how much worse things were for others around me this season. Now I'm thankful instead!
Here is our format.

The example given by the other poster is good, but you may also want to add the date of the exam.
DSS Format
If you download Express Scribe which is a free program that does play .dss formatted files, you should have no problem getting the files to play. Good luck.
format
Just use all caps for headings. They aren't testing you on format. Worry about terminology, spelling and grammar.
Also, I have never heard of "acute care clinic" work. Acute care is hospital work, clinic is office work. Don't bill yourself as having acute care experience if you do not. They are quite different.
format
I use Wordperfect at work. There are approx. 7 people to have access to my files. Over the past 2 months, I am finding "Word" symbols in some documents and the format is changed, font, etc. No one is supposed to change one iota on those pages. Can anyone tell me what's happening?? I hope I'm on the right message board. This is my first. and thanks!
Get out while you can. Things will *never* change unless you change them. (nt)
WAV pedal-.dss format
My doctor just switched from using the regular WAV pedal program using the WAV format to using the .dss format. This is coming up in Media Player and I cannot get the WAV pedal to work with it. What am I doing wrong? It leads me to believe I have to work online rather than download and work off line. It brings up My Documents and it looks like I should be saving it there. (I used to have in My Documents in Word a file set up for My WAV files, and one to Archive the dictation to keep for a while before deleting). This does not come up in My WAV any more, but is still in Archive. Any help or direction is appreciated. Please email me at maplehil@rea-alp.com as soon as possible. My work is piling up and I cannot be typing one line at a time. TIA
Start with Format...
Tee hee, I just learned this like last month! It took me long enough and it's really simple. Start with Format, go to Paragraph, you'll see the alignment of the paragraph is Left, change that to Center.
CLICK ON FORMAT,
Then the arrow at the bottom to bring up more choices. Pick "background", then choose the color you want.
You would need to learn format.
Perhaps if you take an at home MT course that would be sufficient, and with your medical background might be able to land a job. After getting a dentist's salary for so long, might be depressed when you see your paycheck, and with all the ESLs out there might not be so much fun. Not trying to disillusion you but just stating the facts. Also, need to be able to type pretty quick, and have listening/typing coordination - takes some getting use to in the beginning.
If you decide to do it, good luck.
Format heading
Tt the top, under format, check 'bullets and numbering'. Or, you can click on 'reveal formatting' under the same heading, then click 'show all formatting marks' and it might show you what is turned on that you don't need. Make sure you un-click the 'show formatting marks' when you're done to get rid of them.
What is the file format - wav, dss, etc.
What program are you using to try to load?
One thing I do is use the same format
for many of mine. (Old PRD formating)
Example - admin - administer
admins - administers
adminj - admininstration
admind - administered
also for diseases like -
chf - CHF
chff - congestive heart failure
Headings/phrases
hpii - history of present illness
hhpi - HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS
Also - if you have words you constantly transpose letters in, put those in -
teh - the
adn - and
eh - he
Every little bit helps.
If you are consistent on how you add your expansions, no matter what you put in, they will be easy to remember and become second nature.
It depends on WP format,
Spellcheck is no longer available for WP5.1.
Format question
I am currently transcribing a Consultation and never can remember these simple little rules... Under the recommendations section of the report the dictator says that "surgery is indicated for these 5 reasons" and then continues dictating and 1., 2., and so on. Would it be appropriate to add a colon after "these 5 reasons" and skip to new line to start numbering or finish sentence with a period? Or should it be a colon and the numbers starting on the same line? Thanks for anyone's help!
answer to format ?
I woud put the heading "Recommendations" and then type under that the ". . . these five reasons":
1. ________
2. _________, etc.
Auto format
You should be able to restore by formatting your commands. Just go in and find auto commands and click the one that over turned that.
Good luck!

Does anybody use DS2 file format?
One of my offices just switched to the Olympus DS2 file format (without checking with or giving me any notice!) so I need to get a player since I use Express Scribe and that does not handle the DS2 format. Anybody using this file format yet? What software are you using for transcription?
DS2 audio format
Joan, the Bytescribe WavPlayer will play the new Olympus DS2 audio format. If I can help you let me know.
DS2 File Format
You can use the DSS File Converter to convert the DS2 file to a .wav file and then use Express Scribe to transcribe the file. DSS File Converter is available at http://www.pcdictate.com/DSS_File_Converter_p/dssconverter.htm
Psychiatry format help
I am testing, so I can't really call for help. The way it is typed will make or break my score, and I have not been able to find any online exapmles to help me for sure.
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. 
You need to add a tab to the format. See inside for instructions. sm
Click Format and then Paragraph. A box will open and in the lower right-hand corner, click the Tabs button. You need to set a tab at 1" (or wherever you need it). If you have problems, post back and I'll try to help again.
Platelet count format
Help, please....when transcribing platelet counts, do the facilities you transcribe for want them typed as platelets 250,000 (with zero x3 at the end) or do they allow platelets 250? Can someone tell me what the approved method for this is, and from what source? Thanks a lot.
Platelet count format
I like 250K, as in platelet count 250K, WBC 5.7K (K being appreviation in medicine for 1,000)
how about under format/line/spacing? sm
there's a tip in help in that topic that explains it
TrueSpeech Wav File Format
I already have the foot pedal, but I am trying to get some software that will play the TrueSpeech Wav file format. I have a serial port connection for my foot pedal. I have an old version of Playall Extra, but it will not play the sound files.
If anyone knows of a software that will play this file format, would you kindly let me know? I really appreciate your time and help. Thank you ! David

I am starting with a new company and need the user manual for Dictaphone ExText and cannot find a download for it anywhere......does any body have one that you would be willing to email to a fellow MT. I would really appreciate that or any links where I can find one.
Yes, you can format it and wipe it clean. nm
