In Reply to: ABCZ word/phrase list for Autotext? - Where can I find one?
entries at one time, but you have to format the list manually in a Word document before you can run the macro to upload. The utility only works in versions 2000 to 2003. You would create a 2-column table with your entry name in column 1 and your text in column 2, then run the macro. You can take a pre-made list and convert that to a table, but it's still going to take some manual editing on your part to format the list. It's a lot of work either way. You can find the utility here:
autotextloader2.zip Utility for loading a large number of AutoText entries into a template. http://jay-freedman.info/
ABCZ lists you can purchase are made to work with ShortHand and Instant Text only. Google Jon Knowles or ABCZ lists.

I found a great free utility...
after making myself nuts and getting lots of technical advice on how to backup AutoText, when what I wanted was to back up AutoCorrect -- I found this great little utility that creates a text document out of your AutoCorrect entries, then you run it again on the Text document to re-create your AutoCorrect if lost. Click on the link under "Method 1" on this page to download it. It's a lifesaver!

Download Express Scribe, it's free, when you download the voice files you will listen to....
them in Express Scribe and you can set your footpedal up. I forget where the downloaded files go, can't remember if you can put them where you want them but I would have to search for them to download to Express Scribe - maybe someone else can tell you how. It is much better than what you are doing.
How do you download multiple attachments to emails?
I just started with a company who sends their voice files via attachments to an email. Is their an email (yahoo, aim, aol, msn.....) that will allow you to download all attachments at once instead of 1 at a time? Thanks Karen
Abacus is not free. It is $20 but worth it. You can download a trial version free which does not h
I have used this for years and have compared to Sylvan, Word, and MP Count, etc. When you have it set to count every character, bold, shift, tab, etc. It is great and always higher than the others. Now if you are wanting gross lines like in Word then no it won't be as high because Word counts blanks lines and Abacus counts a line only if there is a character on it. There is also two places to check for it to count the Headers/Footers. If you have the FREE version then it must be the trial or a very old version so you don't have all the features and functions.
If working in Word, autotext/correct can be used for free, but (smsg)
if you need a separate expander, then I recommend Shorthand. I think their cost is reasonable, and it is user friendly. I've used it for years, and it has worked in numerous different platforms, or if not directly compatible, I could convert my list either way fairly easily. It, too, has a free demo period for 30 days. Aside from Word's own autotext/correct function which is limited in its compatibility to a degree, you aren't going to find a good free one.
You can't download it free any more. You have to buy it now. NM

AVG and their free download is as good as anything else out there.
anything else out there.
Download the free AVG from Grisoft.com.
It finds viruses that Norton misses.
You can also download free from Microsoft
www.microsoft.com
You can download ExpressScribe for free.
Do a Google search for the URL. You can use your keyboard to control the dictation to do testing.
I you don't have a zip application, download a free one like 7-Zip. sm
then follow the instructions and compress (zip) the ShortHand file.
Free meditech download..sm
There was a site about 8 months or so ago that we would go to and we were able to download the Meditech program for free. Once you have the meditech, you need your own clients numbers to access the modem, but the program itself was not a security issue. I was just wondering if anyone knew of another site with the download.

You can download abacus free. You just have
to delete this line that says: Buy me so you can get rid of this annoying line (or something like that). It counts your lines for you and then creates an invoice. Looks professional. Hope this helps.
download Malwarebytes....it's free and......
I had something like that too awhile ago. Because of this "thing," I had a hard time staying on any website, let alone trying to download Malwarebytes. But I kept trying and finally, the next day, I was able to get it downloaded and ran. It took the problem away and saved me a huge headache. This "thing" was something like Spyware 2008, I just can't remember exactly. I just know it said something about spyware and everytime I tried to go to a site, it would pop up and I couldn't do anything at all. Somehow, though, I managed to bring up Malwarebytes and inbetween closing the spyware thing and its popping up again, I got Malwarebytes loaded. I also have McAffe, AdAware and Spybot but they didn't stop this thing.
One thing you need to do, if you don't already, is update your antispyware and adware protection. Do it at least once a week because new bugs are coming out constantly. I even run an update on McAffee even though I think it's supposed to do it automatically, just to be safe.
Right now I have some stupid "MywayWebSearch" or something like that and I cannot get rid of no matter what I do. Besides the 3 listed above, I even ran SuperAntispyware and Spyware Blaster and still can't get rid of it! I think I have managed to quarantine it though, cuz it doesn't seem to be causing the havoc anymore. These are all Free, by the way, and they do keep my computer pretty clean for the most part. I run scans every couple of days, and do the other maintenance stuff.
Good luck to you and give these things a try before you spend money. If they don't work, nothing lost, if they do.... money saved!

Download ShortHand for a free trial.
Of all the expanders I've tried, it's been the easiest to learn and use. Good graphic user interface, too. Lots of features. Read the help file and manual because there are a lot of neat features I didn't even know about until I read about them.

You can download the free 30-day trial of Shorthand here.
http://www.pcshorthand.com/dnload.html
Then it's $99.95 to purchase it at the end of the free trial, but it pays for itself and is really easy to use. That'll give you a month to save up the money for it. My stats vary on it anywhere from 26% to 67% depending on my dictator.

You can download Express Scribe for free, but I would
suggest waiting on the foot pedal. If you need to do voice files for testing you can using hot keys - slower, but saves you from buying something that will stay in the closet. You may need a C-phone but I never heard of a company providing one. Sometimes the company will provide a foot pedal too.
Use Abacus. You can download for free. Very accurate. nm

Shorthand - You can download a free 30-day trial

Not sure if it does the files you need but a quick check of their program will tell you. Google it.
You can download Express Scribe for free.
This program has programmed hot keys (the F keys) to do the same things a foot pedal would. A foot pedal does make the going easier. You could try ebay or do a Google search to find a foot pedal that is within your price range.
Anyone know where I can get the old MPCount software that was a free download?
I know that it is now part of MPTools or something like that and you have to pay for it, but I just want the old version.

try express scribe you can download for free. what type file is it?nm
;
Download FTP SERVER software (it can be found free). Then have the docs
upload their files to YOUR server. There is no cost to you or the doc to do this. Someone does have to pay for the recorder, which I have chosen to do for 2 docs. The other one purchases his own when needed (twice in 7 years). One picks up files on FTP server. The other 2 still want theirs printed. Since they are not in same city, I mail them via snail mail and they are happy with that. I also do fax any stat reports to them at no charge simply because I have unlimited long distance.
There is a free download line counter called Abacus and I have used
that program to count my lines, which works real well. I just always used a program to do it. It's pretty user friendly and you can try it for free and see if you like it.
It's an e-zine that you download for free and read. It's still quarterly. Just in case anyon

You can also download (free) a product called Cool Timer from CNet.
You can set it to act like a stopwatch or to countdown time. I use it all the time and it has helped me immensely. I just have it open all the time on my toolbar. http://www.download.com/Cool-Timer/3000-2350_4-10062255.html

Kansas utility bills
Hi, I live on the Kansas/Oklahoma border have a 3000 sq ft home (2 levels) and 2 boys who don't know how to close doors. Anyway, our last electric bill was $260.00. This was keeping thermostat at 80 upstairs with ceiling fans going in every room. If it gets too warm, you just go downstairs where you have to wrap up in a blanket as there is a good 10 degrees difference in temp. I have to admit, I thought mine was high but am now thinking we don't have it too bad. Good luck to all and hopefully, we will still be able to pay these next year at this time and the rates won't have put us all in the poor house.

Wow. I live in a 6 room house and my last bill was 328.00. We have very high rates here.
You might also call the various creditors and utility cos...
if you have a good record with them they may let you skip a payment or at least waive late fees for a while.
You can use the AutoCorrect Utility that comes with Word to backup and restore ... sm
or just copy your .acl file to your flash drive. The name of the template with the AutoCorrect Utility macro depends on your version of Word. Word 97 is macros8.dot, Word 2000 is macros9.dot (has to be downloaded from the Microsoft site), and 2002/2003 is support.dot. You open the template and follow the instructions.
You can find your .acl file by adding an entry and searching for *.acl by the date you created the entry. You may have to check the option to search hidden files and folders and you may have to change your view in the search box to Details to see dates.
Formatted AutoCorrect entries are stored in the normal.dot. Those are entries you have added formatting such as bold or italics or multi-line entries.
Unfortunately in my area they made it so the utility companies can shut you off no matter how cold

Other MTs with multiple sclerosis
Hi,
I am wondering if there are other MTs out there with multiple sclerosis and how they are doing dealing with a chronic illness and working in the MT field. Also, are you working full-time, part-time, IC? I have only one year experience but am considering returning to the field.
Thanks,

The key to multiple accounts sm
Most people are intimidated by multiple accounts but think about it, an H&P is an H&P, an OP is an OP and an ESL is an ESL, doesn't matter where it comes from. You CAN program account specs in your mind for those you get regularly so that the specs come right up along with the dictation. The exception would be an account that you get maybe once in a blue moon and then anyone would probably have to give their memory a little boost. With the way work is assigned these days, it is an absolute necessity that anyone who wants to make any money needs to be able to switch from one account to another without missing a beat and it CAN be done.
