I would really appreciate some help in this. 

Thank you so much!

Unfortunately, Word was not included though.   

Thanks for the input anyway.

don't care to discuss what they make.  Why should we?  It is such an individual thing and based on so many factors that is is impossible to draw any meaningful conclusions.

The type of work, as well as the MTs experience, ability to research effectively, retention and overall knowledge and intelligence, self-discipline (and much more) are variable, to say the least. 

What others make is totally irrelevant to what someone else may make.

I so respect QA because they usually fill in all my blanks and I sometimes am in AWE of just how they do that when I relisten to all blanks several times.  My one QA lady also I absolutely think is the best because she communicates so well with us.....and seeks us out to do just that and give us feedback. 

Next year, I'll bet, they WILL honor QA!!!!!!!  (if I have anything to say about it!!) 

;yo = -year-old

;py= -pack-year

etc...

Go to My Computer, click Tools, Folder Options, click File Types tab.

Scroll down list and select WAV.  In the lower part of the window where it says Opens with, click the Change button.  In the new window, scroll down and select Scribe, then click OK.  Then OK to close the other window.

How To Set Up & Use The LX-219 IMPORTANT—PLEASE READ CAREFULLY!!!! • IF THE FOOT PEDAL IS NOT ALREADY CONNECTED---Remove the Front Cover of the terminal block that has the cables attached, and Plug the Foot Pedal into the black connector. • Plug the cable marked “Trans Station” into the jack on back of the LX-219 labeled, “To Recorder” • Plug the cable marked “Power Supply” into the jack on the Power Supply. (some power supplies have two jacks, use the left one and ignore the other) • Plug the cable marked “UDLT” into the jack on the back of the LX-547 VTI, marked UDLT. • Plug the Telephone line cord into the jack on back of LX-547 VTI marked “TELCO”. Plug the other end of this cable into your telephone jack. • Plug Power Supply into wall outlet. • The VTI will now undergo a self test; all of the lights will come on momentarily and begin blinking. After a few seconds all lights will go out EXCEPT the TA and VD lights. These will remain on. (the letters identifying these lights are read from top to bottom, not left to right) You are now ready to Program your Station to call into the Lanier system and begin transcribing. Go to the Programming Instructions, and with the help of your Supervisor or Client, program the Codes and Telephone numbers that they want you to use, into the LX-219. AFTER programming is complete, use the following instructions to begin using the Transcriber. Copyright 2003 by: Ranzy Luster Plug Headset into jack on back of LX-219 labeled “Headset” • Put Headset on. • Press the ON/OFF key. You will hear a dial tone. • Press the Key that you have programmed your Telephone access number into • After the system answers and “Digital Connect” appears, the screen will display; “Enter Trans ID” • Press the key that you have programmed your ID number into. • The display will show “ENT - request Job” • Press the ENTER key. The small screen will display; “Searching for job”. After a few seconds, a job number will appear in the small display screen and all of the information will now appear on the LARGE DISPLAY screen. • Place your foot on the LISTEN part of the Foot Pedal and press down. • Press REVERSE to back up when needed, and if you have backed up quite a distance and don’t want to listen through the dictation again, Press FORWARD to get back to the point you were at when you started reversing. A Loud tone will be heard when you reach this point! • As you are transcribing and reach the end of a job, you will hear a steady TONE. At this point, remove your foot from the Listen Pedal and press the Finishing Touch Button. This will Complete that job and bring up the Next available Job. (the Finishing Touch Button is the one which you have programmed with the Code 1370) • When finished transcribing for the day, Press the button you have programmed with the Code 1371. This code completes the job and prevents others from coming to your station. • In Addition to the two codes listed above, the Telephone number of the system you are calling into should be programmed into a Key and your ID number should be in one. ALL OTHER FUNCTIONS YOUR EMPLOYER/CLIENT WANTS YOU TO USE WILL BE EXPLAINED BY THEM!

This is for WORD 2003. Just follow the steps EXACTLY as outlined. 

1.  Open a plain word document and type your ??.  (A couple of sets with one set per line).

2.  Go to Tools>Macro>Record New Macro

3.  Name your Macro (type it in the box)  Mine is named "jump". (Make sure in the second box, it says NORMAL template or normal.dot.)

4.  Click the Keyboard button - choose the keyboad combination you want to use (I use ALT+J) Click Assign.

5.  You should see a little button floating around that looks like a tape somewhere on your screen.  Don't touch it yet.  Instead, Go to Edit>Find and type in ??.

6.  Hit find next (you should be seeing your ?? being highlighted while you are doing this.) Click the cancel button on that same window. 

7.  Go to Tools>Macro>stop recording. 

Type in a few ?? sets and hit your shortcut combination to make sure it works. 

If you have trouble with this, feel free to e-mail.  I make these all the time.  :)
