Well, I guess I'm going to be using the DQS soon and the word Expander I use currently (Smartype) is not compatible.  Since the expander is empty in DQS (other than the headings) I'm looking to get an expander that is compatible.  I believe I saw Shorthand listed somewhere here as working well.  How do you like it?  Is it hard or easy to use?  If not Shorthand, what else works and is reasonably priced?  I'm dreading the switch because it's "hard to teach an old dog new tricks" and so I want to make it as easy on myself as possible.  Any input is greatly appreciated.

as he is in very close proximity to a lot of businesses and they are tiny places and may not be aware they are sharing and he gets it for free.  May have to take mine over and see what happens! 

I am so grateful that there are such smart and kind people here to help.  Thank you so much.  When you walk into a store you never know what ulterior motives they have in telling you what you need!

He uses Word and my company uses WP5.1.   He sent me some templates and I can pull those up, but there is some header information with patient name, etc. that is shaded gray and I can't get to that to enter the information and I don't know enough about Word to know what to do at this point.  The MTSO knows even less about Word than I do and the MT that did the account is out for surgery. 

I hope I'm making sense and someone can tell me what to do or what to go to look for the information.   I've done straight typing in Word using templates previously and I have not had to do any formatting, so this is all new to me.

the friend's final project in video production.  My daughter is taking the stills for it, which is allowed.  She is going to be mentioned in the credits and was wondering how it would look.  Her AA is in photography.

I do agree, though, it's not "that" big of an accomplishment in the everyday world.  Kind of like CMT... , although I would use that in something like a cover letter for a resume.

I'm kind of baffled on what my mother should do, and I'm hoping that someone out there has typed a report on something like this. 

My mom weighs 78 pounds and cannot gain weight through diet.  She has seen several doctors, and they are not sure what she should do.  Is there a type of doctor that specializes in this? 

Her history is that she had a severe H. pylori infection.  When I was a kid it was so severe that her stomach ulcers hemorrhaged and she went into a coma for a while.  By the time H. pylori became an actual diagnosable condition, the infection had eaten away most of her stomach.  She went on antibiotics finally, but by that time she had to have the majority of her stomach, some of her intestines, and her gallbladder removed. 

She now eats quite a bit, but everything runs right through her.  She can't gain weight no matter how much she consumes.  She has tried all the protein drinks and even tried eating large quantities of trail mix with no results.  She can't gain weight no matter what she tries. 

She has seen several doctors and a dietician.  None have have offered any real solutions and all have questioned whether she is anorexic and just hiding it. 

Does anyone know of a clinic or hospital that specializes in this?  Are there any types of treatment for this? 

I need opinions please...I work on a very small account with just a handful of ladies.  Because of the nature of the software (trying not to get too specific here) we can see who is working online and what reports they are working on in real-time...

We have one cherrypicker on the account.  Instead of using FIFO method, she retrieves the reports by author ID - usually picking the better dictators of course.  She knows I busted her and she did admit to it in on our work e-mail (not too bright) which I am saving just in case she gets out of hand - so far I'm still able to make money since really most of the dictators aren't bad. 

But every night it's starting to wear on me since she's screwing up turnaround time.  I don't really want to cause a big uproar being that it is such a small account and I need to work with her almost every night usually one on one.

What would you all do?  I want to handle this as delicate and professional as possible because we can't really afford to lose anyone on this account.  In other words, I refuse to stoop to her level by cherrypicking right back.

My boss has asked me several times why so-and-so does so much more than I do...I just bite my lip at that point but one of these days I think I might explode and just open up a can of worms....
