Are you sure you're using Auto Text and not Auto Correct?
Auto Text accompanies the template, as I stated before. The Auto Correct entries are in a separate file with the .acl extension.
Transferring Auto Correct/Auto Text

I work in Word currently and have a large number of AC/AT entries.  I am moving to a platform that has Instant Text or Shorthand.  Is it possible to transfer these entries as a file somehow, or am I going to have to enter by hand?  Also any comments welcome regarding the ease of use, etc of Instant Text versus Shorthand.


Thanks


 


auto text, auto text auto text - I also have ...
a couple of doctor accounts that pay me "off the books" and it's less than $800/month so that helps out a great deal.

I autotext every report until I build each doctor up to a "normal" text format. if you want more info - email me at dcr468@aol.com. I am always hesitant about writing the name of companies on this board because of the serious bashing that goes on.

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


Auto Text thanx for helping :)

Inscribe/auto Text
I would like to print out my expansions in Auto Text, Inscribe. I am needing to make changes and clean it up and for me it would be easier to make the changes on paper and then go and do the changes.
Any ideas?
MS Word Auto Text

I had inputed a bunch of my own "text expantion" into MS Word Auto Text and went in to work today and they are all gone.  It is not the first time this has happened, and then you have to go and input back everything, which is a pain.


Has anyone else experienced this or know why it happens??


Word expanders vs Auto text

What is the difference between Word Expanders and Auto text?  Are they the same thing? 


Thanks!

Emdat Inscribe Auto text

New to Inscribe and when I try to expand my word in auto text the cursor jumps to the next line.  Even did this when I tried a key other than the enter key.  Also have Instant text(older version, Instant Text III Pro, but seems to be taking a long time to get used to.  Any thoughts on these two expanders, which is better to use?  Thank you


MS Word 2003 auto text

I use Word 2003 with the platform that my company uses.  I am able to save autocorrect entries, but whenever I save an autotext entry it is gone the next time I open Word.  Is there some Word option I need to click that will enable my entries to be saved?  It would save me so much time if this feature worked. 


 


Auto Text too full-slow MS Word
Has anyone experienced having their Auto Text in MS Word so full that it slows down getting into and out of MS Word Program?  This seems to be the problem, because when I accidentally deleted my "Auto Text" entries, my Word program worked fast again.  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. 
Auto text entries are saved to the template.
Open a document (even a new, blank one). Click on Tools, Templates and Add-in. Click on the box at the bottom, Organizer. Choose the Auto Text tab. If the AT entires you're looking for are shown, make note of the template that they're attached to (in most cases, this will be Normal). If you want them to be copied to a new template, simply choose that template in the opposite box and copy any or all entries that you want to copy.
Need to make sure your AutoCorrect/Auto Text functions

SHUT UP!
Get over yourself. 
No. I have as much right to tell you to shut up and
get out as you do me!

No. You're just a lesion, a runny icky sore. A little sunshine will dry you right up! That's what you DON'T want -- something to heal up that oozing attitude of yours!

MQ is digging it's way out and if that isn't good enough for you, get out.

It's a real shame MQ cannot get the IP addresses of all the complainers and fire every single one of you without notice. Absolutely, that would be the best action they could ever take!!

shut them down?
do you think reporting them local news agencies that fight for consumers would help shut them down?
You are a fool..so shut up
Why do I work two jobs?  Do you have the need to know?  Because I like to live well and have money in my pocket.  Why dont you work two jobs?  Because you are the lazy one and most likely no other trans company would hire you except MQ, who it is well known will hire newbies and transcriptionists that other companies would not give their 2 cents to.

kidneys shut down
Changes are that he is not even aware of what is going on and is semi-comatose or full coma.  Hopefully, the hospital will keep him comfortable.  My father-in-law went so fast that the nursing home couldn't give him enough morphine to keep him comfortable (even though he was basically not awake we could tell he was experiencing discomfort), they legally couldn't dispense enough and it was evening.  They were going to call Hospice in the morning but he passed away before that could be done.  Hopefully, the hospital will have the ability to keep this man comfortable.
I shut down every night--sm
for two reasons. Not the electricity, but the fact that if you are always running, you leave yourself more open to someone trying to compromise your computer. the second reason is that even though you may be set to receive updates on antivirus, etc. sometimes those updates need you to reboot in order for them to take effect. in fact, most of them do. If you are always running, your updates are never taking effect. The minor mini-surges at start up do NOT put wear and tear on your computer. they were DESIGNED for shut down and restart. geez. better get new techies!
I know, I know, I had one eyeball shut and
One eyeball open and my fingers were sore from typing.  Too late to catch, but he won't read it anyway.  Just was venting.  I would laugh if he would call me and say the same thing.  But I know he won't.  Thanks anyway.
She just threw that out there to shut us up, I think
She posts here quite frequently, mostly to whine about her husband, stepson, MIL,and everything else. I don't believe she's really an intentional troll at all, just a complete moron who was trying to dig her way out of the sh*tstorm she started with this gem of a post.
Yes, it is SHUT UP or APOLOGIZE!...nm

so its okay for you to be unappreciated, to just keep mouth shut
I also do my work and then some, but why not a little respect back that I give?  I can't believe it doesnt bother you.  Look at your tone on this board, you seem like the kind of person who would be bothered by it. 
meant mouth SHUT

EXACTLY! Shut up & check out the classifieds.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
shut up or put up - your choice - you cannot control them, only yourself

ok, I'll keep my mouth shut!! ;) Thanks! nm

Do you shut your puter down overnight?
Just curious how many shut completely down at the end of your work day or overnight? Why or why not?
Your computer gets sluggish if you shut it down? NM

They've forced many of our ERs to shut down
a regular doctor's office. So the few that are left are full to bursting. Once when I had a medical emergency, the ambulance couldn't take me to the closest ER because they had no room, instead we drove FOREVER to a far-away hospital, and still I had to wait a long time out in the hallway. Right now I would say 80% of the people being treated on the account I type for are Mexican and don't speak English. So the hospital has to pay for full-time, professional translators to accompany these people at office visits. And it's no surprise that a large number of them came here illegally.
Shut the h*** up. I make $75K a year doing this with BIG nationals.
I get full benefits. I'm not gutless in any way and I'm NOT having my "rights" taken away from me.

They're not doing anything to me I don't want them to do.

If that's YOUR situation, then make that STUPID statement about your own idiot self.

I'm doing just fine financially, Granny. I doubt YOU make the money I do. Not many do, they're not willing to sit their butts down and actually WORK for more than a few minutes at a time without running here and complain to all the other 'children' about 'school'.

I don't take s*** off anyone, not individuals and certainly not places I work -- there are too many of them out there to work for and if I don't want to do that, I can work for myself.

I kinda like the fact that I bring home more than THREE times what it takes for me to live, AND have insurance, AND a TSA, AND choose my work schedule.
Gotta shut the door and zone out and get it done

Been there, still go there sometimes.  It took me a long time to just focus on the work, because at first I thought, "This is so coooool!  I don't have to actually go to work.  I think I'll go make brownies and come back to it later."  WRONG!


Had to make myself a schedule, as the kids were getting packaged brownies and the dishes were never done.  It's tough at the beginning to and when I started a year ago nobody was home.  Then school got out and I realized I had forgotten to factor in the summer part, which was a nightmare!  "Mama! You're not WORKING, ARE YOU?"  Ended up starting at 4:00 a.m. and then working again after everyone was settled in bed.


Now I'm back on schedule. Good luck.


PS--one more thing and then I'll shut my mouff!
Someone said something about not allowing this poor dog to get the exercise he needs out doors.  My dog gets PLENTY of exercise.  He is not overweight, and we play with him every single night of the world--he's a big part of our lives.  He chases balls and toys and we play probably at least 30 minutes to an hour every night of the world, so a dog (particularly a small one like this) does not have to go outside to get any exercise.  Thanks for listening/understanding.
Guess I should have kept my mouth shut, now people are - sm
policing the policing. Too nuts.
Unplug shut down plug in and reboot!

But MTs who 'keep their mouths shut' are part of -sm
the problem. Where I came from, that's the kind of person they wanted - a little mouse who kept her head low, flew under the rader, and just typed, typed, typed. And preferably did not get sick, eat, or go to the bathroom very often! The people who saw problems and/or solutions were a huge THREAT to the managers, who wanted their own managers to think that they knew what they were doing, & 'had everything under control'. And they were scared that the people who spoke up might embolden all the mice. The only way the MT disgrace in this country will ever have a chance of getting better (and maybe our medical records banned from going offshore!) is if MTs speak up LOUDLY, and bring this problem to the attention of the whole country.
I have converted a bedroom to office. Can shut

How 'bout we all shut up and go to work, loool

If an attorney knew his client had cancer, would he keep his mouth shut? SM......
You are a professional. Regardless of the patient's name, you are to keep everything confidential.  The only reason I would say for you to give it to someone else is if you can't keep your mouth shut, but having already heard the name, the damage is already done.  Don't make a big deal out of it.  The first thing you should have learned in MT training was EVERYTHING IS CONFIDENTIAL, PERIOD, so what's the big deal?
I'd type it & keep my mouth shut. If you defer the report to someone else, you are just calling
hmmm...maybe I don't know yet how to post on this board.
I read in the newspaper that an online betting site had to shut down...
because there were many very large bets on Danielle winning. Supposedly people were tipped off that she won.

I agree that she shouldn't win. Go Terry!
