Yes, it will get buggy like that as you fill it up with entries sm

In Reply to: Auto Text too full-slow MS Word - Bonnie Wild
It's time to think of buying a real expander. My recommendation is Shorthand. They have a web site where you can purchase it. It is a wonderful program, much better than the autocorrect/autotext.

I'd go back to IE6. I had IE7 and it was extremely buggy especially with the platform for my emp
It froze up all the time. Would shut down and give me that annoyting "send error report" message and I finally said this is for the birds and went back to IE6. Personally, I don't see what was so great about IE7 versus 6, but then again I don't understand why Microsoft feels we need a new OS every other year!

maybe just let them fill it in?
It's a long blank for just time ???
I think she has probably just had her fill
More than hate sounds like she has had 1 too many ESLs to listen to. Know 1 plenty, every report time after time is a little much. I csn understand the feeling, some.
Can someone fill me in?
Where is the new site/what transpired?
If you're trying to fill several
positions, why don't you list the name of your company? If you had a company you wouldn't be on this board trying to get someone to type 3 reports. Why don't you let one of your current transcriptionists type them. YA BIG FAT LIAR!
I MISSED IT-CAN YOU FILL ME IN?

Fill us in, we are in the dark...sm
What are you talking about, I am lost and am a Country fan.
Fill in work
I occasionally do fill-in opticianry work for local eye doctors.
We do have our QA fill in names & addresses
All of our clients provide us names and addresses of referring physicians. Our QA maintains the lists, and we only ask that our MTs spell them phonetically. QA then corrects any mistakes.
As far as patient names, some doctors spell them for us and some do not. For those that don't, they get their reports back with their patient names spelled phonetically, and it's up to them to correct any mistakes.
Fill in the blank: You know you're getting old when....sm
1. For me, when a person I used to babysit from infancy until school age has completed his internal medicine residency and is in a private medical practice.
2. When I get up in the morning my knees and back crack so much that you can hear them at times in the next room (daughter asks "what's that cracking noise" will confirm this!)
But where in the world do you find someone to fill in? nm
:{
don't care for it. too many fields to fill
in because it seems like the demo's are never there and of course you don't get paid for that, then you have to wait for extra screens to come up before you can select the dr/cc/patient name/etc. there's no way to drop the normals in directly without using the menu, the Expander is more hassel than good. it's straight forward to use but I feel it is a slow process since you can't just start typing without filling in numerous fields.
FILL OUT THE FASA-YOU WILL BE SUPRISED
Make sure you fill out those FASA forms and private colleges want the Profile which helps. When my daughter was applying three years ago to college. I told her that she would have to take out student loans. She was looking into college at 40,000 a year. We filled out the FASA and profile. She is now going to a $35,000 a year college and we are only responsible for $13,000. She is on grants and scholarships. She still is taking out loans because she is a nursing student and her income will be greater than mine and my husband together. My 18 year old who is looking in colleges will have to do the same. I put braces on their teeth, paid for dancing, sports, activities, illnesses that we did not expect. I feel we gave them everything they needed and if they want to go college bad enough they will. My daughter has a 4.0 GPA. She had a 3.4 in High School We are there to support, we pay for car repairs, give her money for clothes etc. She is also on workstudy which gives her $50.00 a week spending money. Don't let the college tuitions scare you until you fill out those forms.
I had to miss it last night..Please fill me in?
I know who got voted off last night, but the radio station I listen to while driving to work was talking about how "drunk" Paula was last night and how she was making really off-the-wall comments. Boy, sounds like I really missed something! Did any of you feel like she was on something or drinking too much?
HA!! This sure would fill her time, wouldn't it?

I haven't had to fill up in a couple of weeks.
I don't go anywhere too often during the summer or I ride my bike. I think it's about $2.29 for the cheap stuff.
It would be just as arbitrary to penalize QA for not being able to fill in the blank. (sm)
The assumption is that all blanks are understandable. They are not.
Classy my ____--you fill in the blank....
--I saw the clip of Walters announcing Jones' failure to return. That was very practiced and classy, I'll hand her that; but then she's had lots of experience and people to help her craft such an announcement.
--I also saw the King show when Jones talked about what had been going on and why she did what she did. I thought that hat was very classy as well. Her being a lawyer certainly helped her craft her statement.
--Overall, I totally believe Jones' accounting of what happened, when, where, why and who knew what and who knew it when. She was quite clear, her timeline precise.
Her reasons for handling her announcement at the time and in the way that she did also made perfect sense if you listened to her closely and carefully.
I was in her situation once--unfairly "let go" and for totally bogus reasons from a large local San Francisco, CA, foundation.
I was told that I could tell anyone at the foundation anything I liked about my departure.
I was in shock at what had just happened, left my supervisor's office, wandered into the kitchen for something to eat/drink.
A co-worker (high level staff) was there and I spoke to him that I had just been let go. We talked briefly, he offered his sympathy.
After he left the room, my supervisor swooped in, telling me that it was not a good idea to talk about it the way I did...blah, blah, blah....she could only have been in the hallway, listening at the door.
Yeah, Walters, et. al. did do what Jones said they did. And the way Walters handled everything did indeed look "classy"--with time, experience, and help, how could Walters go wrong?
Jones told the truth from start to finish on King's show and the View Crew and network couldn't/wouldn't handle it and did not want to face the fall out; and, they didn't want to lose face.
The further complicating problem was that as a public personality, Jones had additional public outlets to tell the truth.
IF Walters had: Simply kept her mouth shut, just weathered Jones' early initial announcement on air that day, deferred all questions of why Jones' contract had not been renewed to Jones' (citing privacy and confidentiality), responding to all askers with a 'no comment', and referring all explanations to Jones'she wouldn't be in the uncomfortable position she is in now. Walters would not have been so exposed, AND she would not have needed to get to Larry King in advance to cover her ____, to explain anything, and trying to look good, thereby maintaining her "classy" reputation.
Yeah, it was a business decision all right, handled badly and then it came back to bite Walters, et. al. in the butt.
Whether you like Jones or not, she chose to tell the truth and, as such, she had nothing to hide. Brava.
We DO listen to the dictation! How else would we fill in blanks?

was this university account you had to fill in demos for?

How do you fill out forms in Adobe Reader 8.
I am referring an MT to a company I work for and to get the referral bonus I have to fill out this form in Adobe Reader and E-mail it to HR. Well, I don't know how to do that. One friend said to copy it in Word and fill it out that way. It won't let me do that.
That's true. My parents refused to fill out the FAFSA
because they weren't going to help me go to college at all. The school counselor just blew me off after hearing that. They wouldn't even talk to me at all and I couldn't qualify for anything on my own without my parents filling out that stupid form. "Adult" children are considered dependents by the government for financial aid considerations until they are either 22, have been married for a year, or have children. I was 18 and a high school graduate but still couldn't afford to go to college working two part-time jobs for a total of 50 hours per week. I wasn't able to go to college until after I was married with two kids to qualify for student loans.
The actual operation you're performing is Fill Down.
I should have mentioned that before. It's a shortcut that eliminates the need to copy and paste. It's one of many and is located under the Edit menu. For example, series can be used to increase in increments, like for dates.

My autotext entries are gone!!!!
I use a program called iType. When I add an autotext entry it is there until I shut down and open program again. I know that I have to add autotext entries outside of the actual iType program - I open word and add them there but they are being deleted somehow. Any help would be appreciated. Oh, I use Word 2003.
Thank you.
Modifying entries
I just pull up the ShortHand window, highlight the entry I want to change, right click it and select modify.
Also, my shortcut for yo is --. It will spell it without the space that way.
AutoCorrect Entries
I think the answer to your question is "no". Use Start/Search to find a file called "proflwiz.exe". This is the Office Profile Wizard and will assist you in saving and transferring your AutoCorrect entries, spelling entries, etc. These settings are in a file with extension OPS. Use the profile wizard on the "old computer" to export the OPS file to a new location (desktop will work), then transfer the OPS file to the "new computer" via email, disc, or FTP. Once you save the OPS file to the "new computer" (desktop will work), use the profile wizard on that computer and follow the directions. If my instructions are wrong or confusing, do a search on Microsoft's Knowledge Base for "Office Profile Wizard". I haven't done this in a while.
Someone please tell me how my autotext entries
could just VANISH overnight? This has not been a good day.
I prefer no templates. It is easier to tx as we go rather than jump around, fill-in and delete. nm

I don't know if Ephedra will make your UDS positive, but usually you fill out a form listing any
medications you might be taking and I always thought the purpose of that was rule out false positives. 
QA works on quota. Frankly, they don't try that hard, either, to fill in the blanks.

I have to disagree. Most hospitals have migrated to EMR & RNs are able to fill in online forms
My husband is an RN at an acute care facility and he loves his job. He has dual majors. One in computer science and the other in Nursing. He decided he didn't want to sit behind a desk plinking on a computer all day and really wanted to do something with his life that would help people. Being an RN is not just about the money, it is about caring for those in need. Seriously, think about the reasons you would be entering the nursing field. If it's just about money, you'll be disappointed. However, if you are the type of person who likes caring for others, then by all means, go for it. All the best!
Depending on sound quality, lookups, fill-ins, ESLs, that's

how do I print my shorthand entries
Anyone know how to print up all the entries in the dictionary?
TIA!

How many entries in your word expander and do you use it often? TIA
:}
Only 4000 entries? hmm, I have 14,000 and use about 8000/day
guess I just don't know what I'm doing wrong with my acute care job. A good day to me is 1700 lines. My average day is 1300.
Yes, DOS was the ideal setting for production. Your "what planet are you on" comment made me think about several Pink Floyd songs!
Auto test entries
Does anybody know how to "save" one's own private auto text entries (within Microsoft Word) and also how to later print-out this file? Thanks in advance! 
AUTO "TEXT" ENTRIES
 Sorry, I asked about auto "test"......I ment auto TEXT
Auto Text entries
The file should be located here:
c:documents and settings<your name>application datamicrosoft emplates
There are a couple of other "critical" files that you should also back up. One is CUSTOM.DIC - (this is your dictionary)
c:documents and settings<your name>application datamicrosoftproof
and the other is MSO1033.acl (AutoCorrect entries)
c:documents and settings<your name>application datamicrosoftoffice
boldface autocorrect entries
Highlight your bolded entry, go to Tools, click formatted entry. Add it like a regular autocorrect entry.
Thank you. Wow, you have a lot of entries! I was afraid it would crash with my
10 to 12,000. Thank you for your response. I'm trying to tinker with the ESPs and wondering if there is a way to insert a hard space in an expansion. (Such as between Dr. and his last name so there is no separation to another line when I expand. Any idea how this could be done? Thanks again for your time. I do appreciate your help.
Lost autotext entries
Look in your recyle bin. That happened to me once and I found them in my recyle bin. I was not real good about keeping mine backed up either and I sure was glad to find them in the recyle bin!
