{@KEY BkSp}-pack-per-year is for Shorthand. Using the semicolon works with both Shorthand and

;yo = -year-old

;py= -pack-year

etc...

Shorthand works.
email me if you need any more info

ShortHand works just like that. $100. And you can try it out first.

Shorthand works wonderfully with DQS

Shorthand, I believe works in all Windows
programs. It works in my email, etc. so should work in Works also

I use Shorthand. It works great in there. sm
The Scribe platform is easy to use once you are used to it. My lines have doubled in the past two months. I use Shorthand for EVERYTHING.

Go to www.pcShorthand.com. There is a trial version.

Shorthand is by far the best expander and works with everything. nm

ShortHand is up to version 9, at least, now, as it's what I have. Maybe v.10 is in the works?? nm

Shorthand works with Mysis
Haven't tried any others but I use SH with it.

Yes, Shorthand works with Meditech.

I have only worked in one version of Meditech, Meditech Magic, and it is easy to use. There are other versions, though. I'm sure they are easy also.

Just make sure you get a list of what the function keys do in your version.

Shorthand works everywhere in Windows.
Can't speak for that platform specifically... but ShortHand for Windows works everywhere, including e-mail, instant messaging, and every other place that you type. They even have a 30-day free trial so you can download and test it out before laying out the $$.

FlashType works just like ShortHand except is cheaper.

Use ExText for 1 job. Love it! Works with my ShortHand. Wish they all used it! nm

MTStars FlashType works just like Shorthand and is $59.95.

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

Shorthand works great with DQS and is half the price

Try FlashType, it works just like Shorthand but is half the price.
see link below

It is an older DOS-type environment - works well with Shorthand. sm
Lots of menus, especially in radiology, but ShortHand helps you get through them very quickly is you write macros to just stop where you need to.

It can be very productive with good line counts if you are paid by the line.

Personally, I loved it, but that was because I did very well with our incentive program on it.

MTStars FlashType works just like Shorthand and costs less.
It also works on Vista. See link below.

I use Shorthand for Windows and love it. I have found it works well with most every program. SM

I have used with Word and Word Perfect. I have used it with Meditech and Cerner. I have used it with RadNet and StarNavigator for Radiology. I can use it with my email applications and on the internet if I choose. If the Expander is open and running, you can use it with any and every window program you use.

I was really simple to learn to use too. Very user friendly.

FlashType is cheaper and works equally as well as Shorthand and has a free demo.

You should not be having that problem, Shorthand works "ouside any program." Contact Shorthan

You can download Shorthand, choose the "capitalize first letter" option. SH works with ExText

Shorthand works for Radnet. I love Radnet BTW! nm

You can use Shorthand in ANY program, it works outside your program
I have never found a platform it did not work with and I have worked on several different versions of Meditech. Just start using it.

I have an opening...sm
email me with your pasted resume and we'll talk.

I saw a job opening for mt at
a women's state prison in California. They didn't require that much experience, pay and benefits were excellent. It was too far from where I lived and I didn't know if I would like the environment.

Wow! This is eye-opening

You two have really given me some thought-provoking info.

I had no idea it was this bad. That is a hellish training period for such a pathetic salary. Exactly the opposite of what I've been reading. The websites I read from truly did quote up to $40. per hour, computer equipment given to you and a growing field, not shrinking!

Yes, I do work for slave wages, but I have a mortgage to pay and student loans and I am a single woman so I have to find something. Maybe a paper route . . .

Thanks for the info!

They might be having an opening soon.

I am opening up a transcription (sm)
business myself. I am fed up with the hospitals who are going voice recognition and are using a digital system for attendings, so I decided why not!! Another MT and I are do this and hopefully we will be successful. I am going in with someone on the computer end as well.

did you try opening the file?
If so, what did the instruction say? Do you have to open it with a special program? Is this a wav file? If not, what type of file is this (it will say at the end of the document/file name)?

That's an eye-opening article -
and scary, too. My MTSO was just taken over by Acusis.........

Still not opening at all for me. I emailed
s

This is eye opening information and I will be

looking into more IRS laws. This is VERY interesting as the company I work for does not pay my taxes but dictates hours, etc. They also have violated HIPAA regulations and I will be inquiring as to what actions can be taken there.

Thanks for enlightening me.

Opening up Pandora's box of wine
Hey Patti, it's ok to talk about drinking and transcribing. People react strongly because it hits a raw nerve. It's a topic that is kept in the dark. I suspect many transcriptionists do and have drank at the desk. I myself have had a small glass of wine on occasion when I have been so stressed out, like when I have been given a 30-day notice that my work is going to India! Or my foreign-accented dictator yells at me for something stupid! I venture to say that perhaps more transcriptionists have a glass or two of liquor toward the end of their shift than they would care to admit. I just think you got such a response because it is a topic most transcriptionists have thought about in one way or another. I'm not saying it is ok or it is morally wrong. It does happen though.

Opening of her broadway show
It was the opening of her broadway show, The Color Purple that Letterman escorted her to. However, I dont like Oprah, never have. The fawning and oohing and ahhing was quite sickening, if you ask me.

Opening any of this person's mail

If you do any of the things you mentioned, you will have broken the law. It is against federal statutes to open someone else's mail, even if it was placed in YOUR mailbox.

Try opening the normal.dot and see if you can change it there. sm
Hide spelling/grammar errors in this document only affects the current document. Another place to look is the Language setting on the Tools menu. You may have it set to not check spelling.

Austin Radiological -- how did you hear about the job opening? nm
nm

I think it is some of the emoticons, but maybe only the first instance of them opening or posting.

I worked in a hospital in radiology, and when an opening in MR was available SM
I applied, got the job, and that is how I got my foot in the door.

Your opening statement about our President is disrespectful.

Whether or not you like him, he is still the President and that office should be respected. Unfortunately, your statement is reflective of the mindset and mentality of many in our country. And people have to ask why the rest of the world doesn't like us--we don't even like each other.

At the very least you should be respectful of those in positions of authority. It's modeling of appropriate behavior that our children see and emulate themselves.

sorry, not in Kansas. PA is where I heard of a good job opening (near pittsburgh)

Look through the Help section in it and just start opening up all the tabs and playing

please, need help with startstop opening windows sound recorder.

When I open a file from within startstop, it wants to open windows sound recorder, and then it wants to open a file located somewhere else on my hard drive.

Sometimes it will open the file I want to listen to, and the windows sound recorder flashes on the screen a couple of times.

Is anyone having that problem? I've emailed and called startstop but no response to email and no return call from startstop tech support.

Any info you have is greatly appreciated. I'm on version 9.8.7

SpeedType and Shorthand are the exact same program. Shorthand is lots cheaper and also has a trial.

Shorthand and SpeedType are exact same program. Shorthand will cost you lots less.
