Word hasn't capped after a colon since the 2000 version.

You have to manually cap with shift key or run a macro at the end of the report. You can also hit shift+f3 to change the case to upper.

What Version of Word do you like? 2000 or?
I'm getting a new computer pretty soon and am wondering what version of Word to get with it. I am only familiar with Word 97 and I like some of the things about that.
I need a version that will automatically CAPITALIZE after a period. Couldn't live with that.
Thanks for all your help. Couldn't make it without my MT buddies!
What is the version of word for windows that works best for you? Still working off 2000.

Works is a dumbed down version of Word and Excel. You get the full version of Word in the Suite.
The Works Suite is a cheaper way of getting a full version of Word if you don't want or need the other applications in Office.
cannot is 1 word and hospital not capped

the word state doesn't have to be capped, Misha

Is any one running ExText with Word 2000 and EditScript with Word 2003 sm
I am interested to know if anyone is running two platforms with a different version of Word on one computer.
I am running eScription's ES with Word 2003 and want to run ExText but their version of Word is 2000. Has anyone done this or doing it now. If so, have you run into any problems.
I can't seem to get a straightforward answer from the Techs at either company. I can't just load ExText and jeopardize it interfering with eScription.
I am interested to hear any and all comments. Thank you so much in advance for any help!
Switching from Word 2000 to Word 2003...
Has anyone upgraded from W2000 to W2003? If so, did all your autocorrect entries and normals transfer easily? I would like to upgrade but don't want 2 lose my shortcuts and expanders! TIA 
If you picked the correct Word version at installation, if you pull up a blank Word page & do an inc

it is attached to your version of Word. Open Word and it'll be on your tool bar. NM

Try Word 2000
Look at some online discount software places. I picked up Word 2000 CD only (no book, no frills) for $30. Seems most of these outfits require Word 2000 and up. Try softwareoutlet.com; that's where I got my CD.

Anybody know if MS Word 2000...
can be used with Vista. I want to go out and get a new laptop this Monday. I have word 2000. I looked on the web and found Word 2007 but it is quite expensive. I would rather not have to purchase word 2007 and new pc as that is a bit pricey for me right now. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

what version of Word do you have? Here's a link for Word 2002 -sm
This looks like a long and drawn out thing to do, but it's not that hard really.
When I did it, I checked and found that I had the support template already in the folder, so I was able to skip down to "Back up your AutoCorrect entries on source computer." It's named support.dot and is found here:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOffice10Macros
Just following the instructions closely, it was really easy.
If you don't have Word 2002, I think there are other methods avaialable.
Here's the link:

I do this with Microsoft Word 2000. nm
:
I bought Word 2000 for $30
at softwareoutlet.com. It was CD only, what they call OEM.
Personally, I don't care what bells and whistles the newer versions may have, I refuse to pay hundreds of dollars for a word processing program.
I use word 2000 and have the same problem
I put "year-old" into my Expander as "yo" and when I type the number, I put the dash after it, like 10- then the "yo" without a space and it works.

Were is *acl file in Word 2000? NM
Where is *acl file in Word 2000? TX
My Word 2000 started doing this, and I
problem plus I had header problems. The header was staying huge even after changing my normal.dot. I tried MS help to no avail. The header problem occurred after opening an attachment from an e-mail from the company I work for with a header that was like 3 inches to accomodate a letterhead. This wound up changing every single Word document to a new header. I finally just trashed the whole shebang and started with another tower and am running XP with Office 2003. Good luck, but I still don't know what happened!
Word 2000 question
I have a next page break in between each report, but after page 3, it started back numbering 1. Never had this happen before. Anyone know what's going on or how to fix it? I don't want the page # inserted on the page just to show on the lower left toolbar in correct order for printing purposes.

Jump code used in Word 2000
I'm hoping someone can help ~ I just started a new job where I'm working in Word 2000. My question is this ~ There are a lot of normals that I'm using for doctors and I need to figure out how to jump around the report (sets of ??) without having to use the mouse constantly. I've worked in a few different programs before, but never Word. Chartscript used, I believe, Ctr J to jump around. Anyway, I do think there is a way I can do this, macro maybe? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!
Word 2003 or 2000 or 2002?
Hi y'all. I have to change from WOrd 97 to Word 2003 or 2000 or 2002?
Do y'all have a FAVORITE, and can you tell me WHY? Just a short email would do it and would be so appreciated here.
Thanks everyone for input. I really appreciate it. I'm using XP Media Center 2005 and it has 2003 on it that I can buy. My main thing was that with it I could not do like 5mg and have the space between the drug dose automatically come in from my expander. But, as soon as I get the new version of Word, I'm getting Instant Text and maybe that will help. I need to upgrade so I can purchase the IT and Steadman's, and Steadman's needs a newer version. Also, I'd like to get some newer features than 97, hopefully one of the newer versions will be more conducive to production?
Thanks to all who reply. You can email me or post. Thanks much.
Try eBay. i got my MS Word 2000 there along with a COA and the code. nm

I googled it and Word 2000 is supported

I use Word 2000 and have had no problems. (knock on wood).
I used to run it with Microsoft Office, but had too many problems so got rid of MS Office and just run 2000. I have been lucky that when I get .tmp file, I can just delete it. I got so mad when that would happen I was always doing a system restore. What a mess. I got rid of the MS Office and things settled down. I hope this helps.
You'd be limiting yourself. It only works in MS Word 2000 & 2002.
Lots of people have had problems getting Smartype to work in Word 2003 and you can forget 2007. It doesn't work in different platforms either. You'd be much better off looking at ShortHand or Instant Text.
setting default view in Word 2000
My default view has changed to 90% and I have to manually change every report. Is there a way to fix this so it pulls in on the normal view every time?
i have word 2000 free standing as well with no problems. email support, they will help you shortly.
you shouldn't struggle with having problems. support is there to help us and they are good at their job. as with any new acct, there are always gonna be some kinks. i had some to work out as well with my end of the system. it doesn't sound like something you can fix; probably something with how the two tie in together. did you log out and back in and see if that helped?
ExtText by Dictaphone -- Word 2000 - won't capitalize when making a new paragraph or after lists?
Hi. I am new at a job. The Word 2000 running in ExtText (Dictaphone) will not capitalize at the beginning of a new paragraph (never had that happen before), nor after numbers in an automatic list, and sometimes even just after plain periods, not just periods used in numbers (like hemoglobin 7.5).
What is going on? It works fine in the Word version on my computer, but when it ties with ExtText, it "forgets" to capitalize. It is especially annoying with lists, and also at the first of paragraphs, I never had to babysit that before.
Any help? TX
Which version of Word are you using?
If you are using Word 2003, I HIGHLY recommend you disable autocorrect and anything that would automatically insert anything based on an expansion system within Word. There is a known problem (on MS-Word's end) that these 2 programs compete for expansions and Word can lock up, causing you to lose up to your entire report. I've been in touch with several people trying to resolve this issue but it is on Microsoft's end, not Smartype. Any prior version of MS-Word does not have this issue. Just be sure you don't have the same expansions set up for both Word and Smartype. I loved my ST with Word 2000. I'm on a platform where I can no longer use ST but I am slowly importing all my entries into a different expansion program.

MS Word version
What version of MS Word are you using and do you have it and Windows (not VISTA--extext not compatible with Vista) upgraded? This should have been checked when tech support did original install for you but maybe they didn't check. Make sure your operating system has all upgrades it should and that MS Word has all the upgrades it should, too, then reboot, make sure nothing opens up or is open after you reboot. Then go to Windows Explorer, C drive, then docnet (these are your ExText Word Client folders). You are going to do a clean install, so delete the following folders and no others: Dump, offlinedoc, recovery, templates, transnet, workinggroup. If you delete the entire docnet folder you will delete all of extext and will NOT be able to reinstall, so only the folders above should be deleted. Reboot again. You also want to make sure you don't have any old temp files sitting on your hard drive; these can affect how your programs run. You can check this by doing a search on your C drive (assuming drive is C), for *.tmp. Make sure again that nothing is opened and delete those files. I would do this after deleting the above folders but before reinstalling Extext. Make sure nothing opens up again or is opened, and reinstall Extext again. This should clear things up for you, and if that doesn't work, I would definitely contact tech support. Extext is not supposed to work right if you open up Word first. Extext should be opening Word for you, sometimes you can get a runtime error if you exit from the VPN before extext has disconnected.
Even though you exit from Extext, and you should never exit using the X in the corner, it takes a few seconds for the last file to upload, so it is better to exit from extext, leave the vpn connected, check email or do somthing else and then disconnect the vpn. Also, if you were doing a control S to look at a document and left that document open, then control N'd your working document, and then tried to start a new document when the screen pops up, you will get a runtime error.
Not in my version of Word...?
I do not find "speller type" option/window where you are saying it should be - ?!  BTW, I have uninstalled Word Pro and gone back to plain old Word 2003.
You are using your version of Word. sm
Yes, your auto correct feature works and yes you scan use an Expander of your choice that is compatible with Word.
What version of Word are you using?

Which version of Word?
You can turn on auto numbering or you can assign a keyboard shortcut to a numbering style.
On my Word version it's this way
Try:
Word - Format - Autoformat - options - autoformat as you type - check box for numbering in that field.
What version of Word? sm
Try Ctrl + A to highlight the entire document if the template already has text in the document area only, then go to the Font dialog box and choose the font and size you want, then click on the Default button so it also changes the original template. If there is no text in the document area, just go to the Font dialog box at the beginning of the document and follow the same steps. I am assuming the original template is a .dot file. When you close the document, you will get a message asking if you want to save changes to the template. Be sure to check the yes box.

It depends on your version of Word.

You do not say which version of Word you are using but if you open--sm
File, Print, and in the box 'print what' click on the down arrow and choose key assignments. Sorry, I do not use templates much so maybe someone else can answer that, or go the 'help' and you may find the answer there. Hopes this helps
Word version Autocorrect - thanks! (nm)
thanks
Sorry to confuse -- what version of Word are you using?
xxx
The version I use does not use my word autocorrect but has
its own. I have to turn mine off or they both come in at the same time with words within words.
I have an older version of word, so
I type 65- and then use Expander yo for year-old and also have yobf, yowf (black female, white female), etc.
I don't have a current version of Word, so I don't know if -- sm
...there's an option in the settings there, but I'm assuming it's taking one of the standard Windows sounds for that "ding" you're hearing (perhaps the sound Microsoft calls "Asterisk"?).
There are probably other methods, but you could try going into your Control Panel, then Sounds and Audio Devices, then the Sounds tab and change that Asterisk (or whatever it turns out to be -- you can listen to the sounds on that tab) to something more to your liking, or to No Sound. (Of course, that may prevent Windows from alerting you in whatever programs or routines may use that same Asterisk sound, but it would get rid of it, anyway.)
Depends on your version of Word. sm
With autonumbering turned on, Word 2000 and later will automatically indent your list. You cannot turn off the indent, however, you can press Alt + Shift + left arrow to demote the list to the left margin. You can also create your own numbered style with no indent.
Which one -- AutoCorrect or AutoText? Word version?
