I have normals and templates set up for my primary acct, which has the shorter files. I thought I would be faster on the other one that is basically narrative with occasional headers - you know, no stopping to move down to the next header and such, but I'm not. I only type 65 wpm so obviously straight typing speed is not my strength at all!

I'm the opposite
I've actually never reread a whole file. When I used to transcribe alot and well still do occasionally (on voice recognition accounts now), I had a trick I did. I would listen type until I heard like a sentence and then lifted my foot the pedal while finishing the sentence. I have a setting whereby whenever I lift my foot and put it back down it rewinds 2-3 seconds. When I do that I quickly scan what I just typed. Works real well for me. Hang in there!
