can you copy and paste?

If not, check this site out!!!

Wow - it is interesting. You know, there is actually an organization called The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in charge of standardizing all this stuff up-and-coming.

Did you read the part about "MT changing more in the next few years than it has in the last 100"

This is it, right at this site.

It is documentation that the doctor or nurse, or healthcare provider carries and enters at the time of service...

It even automatically codes for billing, etc.

Rather than 'free text' of a doctor dictating, it is standardized text where the person enters the info...

so much to it, and it is exciting, just wished we fit in somewhere...

copy & paste
long, drawn out process which will take tons of MW space, but it can be done.

You can just copy and paste.
Yes it will conform. Also Word allows you to use your own spellcheck. May be a bit cumbersome at first, but should work better than typing directly in Meditech. It lags a lot.

copy and paste
The only way I know is to copy and paste.

copy and paste into your address bar. x

Can you do copy and paste rather than writing

Yes. Hit apply and either copy and paste, or
attach resume; however, some companies will not allow attachments.
A cover letter is always a good idea; just keep it short and to the point.

Happy Job Hunting.

How to copy & paste into FTP site?
I can't seem to figure it out?

COPY AND PASTE, IS THERE AN EASIER WAY?

The doctors I transcribe for are specialists so I do a full consultation but the doctors only want part of the consultation sent to the referring doctor so I copy and paste part of the dictation to a letter. This very easy, but very time consuming. Is there an easier way than to copy and paste for every letter. I am working in Word.

Copy & Paste in EditScript

Alice,
Do you need to upload the job first?
Can't you just go to the Search window and from the Search window use these functions again normally?

you can copy and paste from word to meditech...
It is alt V instead of ctrl V. It is VERY slow doing it that way though.

Here is the code. Just copy and paste it into your shorthand. (sm)
{@KEY BkSp}-year-old

I use "yo" for that. Also have "mo" for month-old since I do pediatrics.

The @KEY specifies ShortHand to make that keystroke within the code. It basically tells Shorthand to do a backspace after you use that shortcut.

Another example is bold.

{@KEY Ctrl+B}{@NOSPACE}

My shortcut for bold is "bo" and then I just continue typing. That way I don't lose my rhythm.

Anyone who needs a laugh, copy and paste link inside. sm

Please provide links, not copy/paste from other sites. NM

A macro can copy, switch to another document, paste, and
switch you back to your original document (or remain in the new document). Keyboard shortcuts can highlight lines or paragraphs to copy and open a new blank document. You don't really give enough info on exactly what you are doing to offer more help.

Thanks! That macro worked like a charm using the copy/paste method.
.

also possible copy/paste of document saved as "RTF" or "TXT" (sm)

usually works just fine ... I don't trust Word not to have eliminated "save to WP6" as an option since they have achieved near GLOBAL DOMINATION. (on my tool bar that starts with FILE, and end with HELP -- under HELP, there is WP help -- but it's not installed -- try that first-- maybe you have it)

I have my copy of Word set with save to RTF as the default (I hate Word) and have copied from that into both Bayscribe and Meditech without difficulty while copy/pasting WORD documents resulted in garbage

The tricky bits, irrc, had to do with tabs, indents bolding etc. -- (but in my case I was copying into proprietary software which didn't support those commands) --- so you will want to do a test run. I'd try RTF first -- hope you have "print preview" or a friend in the office -- good luck -- i

Let me get this straight. It is a copyright violation punishable if you copy and paste an article
but it is not a copyright violation if you copy and paste the link to the article? What the h*ll is the big deal?

if can't copy/paste, highlight text, ctrl/x, go to shorthand, ctrl/V

That is "web site" in post above. Also, Auto Copy add-on for Firefox will automatically copy
Auto Copy add-on for Firefox AUTOMATICALLY copies what you select (highlight) on a web site to the clipboard.

Then you can paste it in a document.

It just saves the step of right clicking and then clicking on "copy" to put something on the clipboard. Just select it, and it is on the clipboard.

It only works only on web sites-- only copies stuff you select on web sites, i.e. not in other documents.

Print a copy of the form on your printer, fill it out, copy and send it to your computer via fax may
Just a guess. Or print it, fill it out and fax it to her.

How do you copy your SH file to text - do you copy each dictionary separately? nm

I do not copy to text. I copy the spf sm
file to a disk and save the whole thing there, update it occasionally.

Yes, there are different versions...

The version that I worked on had access to other reports in the system, which was nice. What I did was type in MS Word then paste into Meditech via Shorthand, just don't tell the company that you're doing that. Otherwise, if I had to type directly into Meditech, I wouldn't have made any money. So, like any platform, there are good and bad aspects to it, but it really depends on which version.

Buy the CD versions. My books have been...
...gathering dust ever since I invested in those.

There could be different versions of the same program that are not

Seems to be the same to me as I've used several versions, too. nm

MS Word versions
Well found out that with the update, it DOES work, instead of doing "typical install' you can do a custom install and tell the update to keep the original version of Word, which it does and will also import your Stedman's Quick Look, etc.

Even different versions of Word count the same, so it's not that either. nm

Does anyone know if the newer versions of Escription sm
are compatible with Woord 2007? The requirements I received some time ago stated that Word 2007 was not compatible. Wondered if they had upgraded yet. TIA

I have older versions saved.

If this poster (or anyone else) needs an earlier version, I have setup files for both 4.15 and 4.02 available. Just shoot off an email.

A lesson I learned a long time ago--always have a backup plan.Whenever I download a new program and after setting it up on my computer, I save the original set-up file in a folder called, amazingly enough, Downloads. Then, when a newer version is released, I also save it (usually with the version number as part of the name) in the same folder. That way, if anything goes wrong with the update, I have the old setup files to fall back on.

Those versions don't even come close to how IT V Pro works.

I have a lower versions but I find
that when it stops expanding, somehow (I know I didn't do it) the autoreplace box got unchecked. When I check it back, it works again. Hope this helps.

You aren't working in both versions.
That's why Word is working okay for you. If you want to work in both versions then the oldest one has to be installed first so the registry will know how to handle both.

Does Flashtype work in all Meditech versions?

Sharing with older versions of Word.
There are some problems with sharing files with older versions of Word. Although there are ways to get around it, it sounds as if it might be a bit annoying. I am thinking about upgrading, and this came up in my research.

Two versions of Word on the same computer will only work
correctly if the oldest version is installed *first*.

There are updated macros in all versions of Word
except 2007. The macro for 2000 is called macros9.dot and can be downloaded from the Microsoft site. The AutoCorrect Utility in 2002 & 2003 is in the support.dot template that is included with Word. You can go to this site to get the macro for 2007:

http://jay-freedman.info/

Or you can simply locate your .acl file and back that up. It's easy to find if you add an entry and then do a search for it by the date modified. Just make sure you are searching hidden files and folders.

Depends on the versions of Word and WordPerfect. sm
Some WP versions can read Word .doc files, some don't. Some versions of WP will not accept copy/paste from Word. The advice to save the Word document as an .rtf file may be your only choice.

The home/student versions are not licensed to be used for
commercial purposes, i.e., in a work environment. There is no difference whatsoever in the programs. Word 2007 can be saved down to earlier versions so, yes, you can get a job using that version if you are not working in a Word-based platform that requires a specific version.

The Microsoft site has many free tutorials that you should look into.

If you Edit, Select All then press the control button and the number 5 (not F5), it will change it back correctly.

First paste it to..
notepad, adjust it and then copy it from there to paste in reply to job ads.

What version of Word? That can't be set in newer versions. I had to do a macro --sm
I hope this link works for you. It shows how to make the macro. I use alt + semicolon for it because it seemed those would be a convenient shortcut to use. H

Here's the link (you'll probably have to copy and paste it):

No, but with an expander you can just set your expansions to the approved versions for that account.

Upgrade to Word 2007 vs older versions
I just bought a new PC with Vista operating system. Now I must buy Word to install. I looked at the differences between Word 2007 and the older versions on the Microsoft website and it seems that there is a difference in the way Word 2007 is saved compared to the older versions - you have to download a "patch" to be able to "read" older version Word files and for my clinic to be able to "read" my Word 2007 they will have to download a "patch" as well to enable their PC to open this document. I need some advice if this is a good idea or if I should just stick with an older version of Word. I have a copy of about 3 years old that I have not used and can load on my system. I would like to upgrade to the latest version as I know in a year or two the doctor's office would have changed but am wondering if the new version is a pain to work with or a pleasure. Anybody out there that can tell me the pros and cons between upgrading to the latest or just sticking to the old and familiar. I am also not sure if the doctor's office will download the patch and how accomodating they will be...

if they're legit, why are older versions still for sale (sm)
If you go to the real Stedman's website, you'll see that even older versions are still being sold - they're not being given away by Stedman's.

At the very least these are bootleg copies that you're not supposed to have unless you paid for them and that means they're not legit in any way.

Difference in Word 2007 from older versions

I have a trial version of Word 2007 on my computer, and I really like its layout. It's not a fully functional version, so I can only try it out so much. Has anyone made the switch from the older versions of Word and liked it better? Has it improved your productivity in any way? Any problems with it? All feedback appreciated.

Thanks!

Difference in Word 2007 from older versions

Thanks!

Smartype only works in specific Word versions.
You want an Expander that works in all programs and a lot of platforms, such as Instant Text or Shorthand.

Cut and paste in Radnet
That is exactly what I did. I used a macro program (Macro Express) to make the "Page Up" key highlight and cut the text from Word and the "Page Down" key paste it into RadNet. I couldn't see any other way of doing it, since I hate typing online with the delayed keystrokes, etc. I used Dragon Naturally Speaking until we upgraded to XP, then it wouldn't work anymore without upgrading, but Word/AutoCorrect saved the day.
