The icon on the toolbar is controlled by the normal.dot file and system restore does not affect that file. You can take the icon off the toolbar by holding down on the Alt key and dragging the button down to the document window with your mouse. You can also open the customize dialog box on the tools menu and drag it off that way.

You may have gotten it back from the recycle bin, but system restore does not restore documents.

About system restore, sorry about that
nm
I wonder if you can use System Restore
to recover that document. That worked for me once.
Have you tried doing a system restore?
.
You can restore your system, but I'm not sure if that will do it (sm)
Could it be in your recycle bin? If you see anything in there that could be it, right click and restore. If that doesn't help, you can restore your whole system back to a certain date. I have done this before when I got a virus I couldn't delete. Start, Run, msconfig <enter>, launch system restore. You will be given the chance to pick a date to restore back to.
do you have system restore?
If you use/have system restore set up, you can go back to the date prior to this problem, and things should go right back to normal....read about system restore on your system in the HELP (F1) area
System Restore
Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - System Restore.
You can also restore your system...
Go to Start, then All Programs, then Accessories, System Tools, then pick SYSTEM RESTORE.
Pick a date you're positive was before the virus was contracted, and restore to that date.
BTW, poster above about the malwarebytes site is correct...It works, and it's also pretty cool to watch it run and "quarantine" the viruses. My computer had 67 of them at one time, unbeknownst to me.
Good luck!!!
All hail System Restore! (sm)
The DSL went out in my complex the other day, and when it was restored, nothing I could do could restore connection on my work computer. The manager brought his laptop over and proved the connection was fine. My tech-savvy daughter and I checked and rechecked everything, then laughed when the Hardware Lord came home and rechecked all the same things we had tried.
Finally she reminded me about System Restore; I restored to the previous day, and all was well.
Don't know about System Restore on Windows XP systems? Go to Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> System Restore and make sure yours is turned on and sufficient memory allocated. In addition to the automatic restore points WinXP schedules, make certain you create a restore point before you change any significant settings on your system or install or uninstall software. Note that it only restores settings, not deleted files or programs.
There are some forms of Spyware which hide out in system restore. The only way to get rid of them is to turn it off and erase all previous restore points.
Thought I'd post this as this feature has saved me a lot of grief on several occasions.
I would try a system restore to before you started...sm
That should clear up any problems you've had since then. You can find it in your control panel, performance and maintenance and then system, where you'll find system restore. Choose a date to before you started work there. Or you can buy the programs out there that fixes problems like this, like Fix-It Ultimate 6. I know they have them at Walmart for $20. Good luck!
My system restore is not working so I cannot do this..nm
nm
If I am right I did not "set up" my system restore...sm
Your system restore as I understand it automatically makes its own restore dates. You can make your own restore dates also. I have not done any set up regarding system restore and have used it several times in the past. Check it out on your pc with any luck you may be able to use it...Good Luck...
do a system restore. see if that helps. nm

I just did a system restore and that seems to have helped. nm

Welcome! System restore is a lifesaver
I have used it many times. I always check for simpler solutions, but if there are none, this does just what it says and at least allows you to rule out certain things.
Do you have a system restore option
on your computer where you can set it to how it was working on a past date?
Easy Fix...System Restore
I was able to ditch the XP Antivirus 2009 bug by rebooting, going back into Windows in safe mode, then doing a system restore to a couple of days prior (click Start, Help and Support, type in "system restore" and you'll get the system restore wizard). Pesky bug hit me earlier this week when I decided to work a late-nighter and didn't have the time or stamina for marathon troubleshooting!
I would uninstall SP3 and do a system restore.
I've read that SP3 can be problematic.
find System Restore on your computer.....sm
You need to find System Restore on your computer. Go to START, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, then click on System Restore and set it to a date when everything was working just fine and dandy for you (like a couple of days ago or so) and then everything should come up nice....the way it used to be for you. 
system restore or auto recovery does not--sm
restore save documents as they were previous to being saved. Once they are saved, that is it. System restore will not bring it back.
did you try to do a system restore? anytime i find myself sm
in a situation like yours, i always try system restore to an earlier date to fix the screw up i did. no need to uninstall programs that way either. so much easier. i agree with the other poster, sometimes i get so furious with IT that i hang up on them and fix it myself!! if working on the computer is your income, you owe it to yourself to learn how they work so you can fix minor problems or be best friends with an IT or repair person you can call 24/7 without a huge price.
Restore System or lower resolution did it for me sm
I got a new monitor that wouldn't work in Word so I set it to the old, smaller resolution and it works in Word just fine now. On another computer Restore System fixes absolutely everything, saves my life over and over again!
Only if you have a backup of your normal.dot file. System Restore will not
xx
lost files. I worship the god of system restore.
That said, once a week i copy everything I value onto CD and make 2 copies. One goes to my parents house and one I keep on hand. My parents live 30 miles away and I consider that a small price to pay for peace of mind. I had a major computer malfunction once and I was down for almost 3 weeks. It was a nightmare. I have since learned...back up, back up, back up. Good luck with retrieving or finding your lost informaiton.
Windows 2000 is the same. Accessories, system restore. nm

System Restore does not affect documents, only program files.

You might have to do a system restore to the time before she sent file. Vista is still too buggy
s
System restore does not affect documents, only program files.
You will not lose any documents you've created. Restore does nothing to the normal.dot or other templates.
You can also access system restore thru Help and Support in Start menu. nm.

Windows 2003?Under Accessories, System Tools, Restore (nm)

recommend adware, free, but if you can do a system RESTORE, it is much, much easier than battling it
i used to spend days trying to get crap off my computer. learned to back up to system restore from a few days prior to when i noticed everything happening and works like magic!! so much of an easier solution. but several tech support have told me adware and i run it weekly.
Temp files disappear when you shut down Word. System restore does not recover documents .

The state told us that MTs are employees because we they work in our system and do the same work as
maybe you can work for a company in another state.
I work on VR and according to the system you will use
you might not be able to get double or triple the lines. My VR audio only goes so fast and it is entirely out of the question to make any more than I do. I keep the speed turned up as fast as it will go and the speed of VR dictates what you can make, not your speed.
Last day of the pay period. No work on the system.
x
It should work regardless of the programs on your system...sm
I'd try contacting their support team again.
Where I work we are on a tiered system,
per pay period.
9 cpl for the first 12,000
then an extra 0.5 cpl every 2000 lines.
Does anyone know anything about the new EMR system? and how it will affect MT's work? nm
When you work in an office, you can see when others are manipulating the system.
so don't judge her for knowing
Keystrokes - Lanier system - anyone work on it?

I'd work in Word and cut and paste into their system. SM
Ask them if you can type it in Microsoft Word and then cut and paste (copy the Word document and paste it into their system).
It is not feasible to work without a spell checker. Word has a pretty good spell and grammar checker and there is no reason to do without it.
See if their "tech" department can come up with a macro to copy the text of the Word document and paste it into their program. Or, you could create a Word macro and paste it into their system. Either way. There is an excellent Macro recording program called Macro ToolWorks which is free for 30 days and then $40.00 that can duplicate key strokes and mouse movements, and could copy the document, go to their program and paste it in. They you'd just hit one button, like the Ctrl button plus a number. Their tech department should only take one or two days to come up with some solution.
Good luck. I just would not work without Word spell checker and also Steadman Medical Spell Checker. Essentials to any production typing job. Good luck !
A regular Infinity USB pedal should work with their system. Why not ask them for sure? nm

I love the night shift! No interruptions and more work on the system.
I agree with poster below - Power NAPs! I am a napper, need my nap about 30 minutes to 1 hour, before my shift and a pot of coffee sometimes 2 gets me through!
work out an indexing system that works for you and copy (almost) every report into it.
while Ops offer lot of challenges -- that's a good thing, imho, REALLY ...
I keep my op stored in WORD sorted by
(1) client
(2) specialty (general surgeon, ortho, plastic, podiatrics, ENT, GYN, GI , urology, neurosurgery etc) .... and then in word folders
(3) within speciality, within client I name individual reports like this:
470 hernia vental simple
470 hernia umbilical
470 small bowel resection
=========================================================
470 would be that doctor's id number -- the file holding 470's reports would be named with doctor's last name
=========================================================
works for me, although I do usually do big time "indexing" until I've gota bunch of copied reports.
=========================================================
It's really important to NOT consider these NORMALS until you are more familiar with the dictator ... however... this is worthwhile ANYWAY because the joy of OPs is that most doctors say pretty much the same thing in 80% of their reports ... sometimes more. Gastroenterology and GYN are excellent "easy money" most of the time but you MUST pay attention and change every difference ...
All these saved reports need to be updated when you review your QA ... those phrases that doctor mumbled yesterday are probably mumbled 24/7/365 ... follow up and record this information.
=========================================================
I use Emedicine for my go-to for a lot of things... while they don't have op reports they are stellar at terminology and spelling, hyphens, and capitalization as far as I can tell.
One of the fabulous things about op reports is usually NO MEDICATION LOOKUPS!!!! (although you will spend time finding out the latest heart stents, hip replacemetn component marketing names, etc. ) Most medical device manufacturers have "pretty good" web sites -- use them, rather than relative Google popularity wrt spelling, caps, etc.
Good luck -- there is a learning curve but imho it is more than worth it -- Surgeons understand that their dictation is in essence their "BILL" when it comes to Medicare and insurance -- they have a vested interest in it being intelligible and complete ... they may talk really fast but most of the time, if you have samples, you will find they are saying variations of the "same thing" using the same words/terminology.
Oh, and OP pay better.
Sincerely, good luck.!
Meditech is an operating system and Fusion is voice for a dictation system

that's right but first you have to set it to backup so that you can restore

Restore your computer to the day before he came.sm
Start, all programs, accessories, system tools, system restore, then follow directions. Hope this helps.

Shutting it on and off doesn't restore normals? Are you

Maybe in the recycling bin? Or you could restore your computer to an earlier time?

Orator Express problems. Need restore instruction help. sm
They are off. I had to purchase a new drive, but they didn't send instructions on how to get it working. Was told with phone message I can use the System Restore Disk. I have some of the instructions, but every time I use it without help I delete the 2nd drive. Anyone have instructions on how to do this? Thanks!
