typing error
Who are you, the typing police? Do you get pleasure out of insulting people? Or are you the perfect typist who never makes any errors? Don't think so!!!!!!!!!
When QA points out error on a report, will you call

"software error" this is in response to dilemma post

Please make sure to ask word questions on the Word Help board. There are
people who specifically answer questions there.
If you currently type in word, then do a word count
then I really can be of no help. Usually when trying to get an idea of a line count with spaces and without spaces, you can use this method. Some people have actual line counting software. I, however, do not, so I am not much help in that regard. Hope this helps at least a little.
Software
The only software I paid for out of my pocket was my word Expander software and the electronic medical dictionary - and I kept those receipts and deducted the expense on my taxes.
If the company has a specific platform that needs to be downloaded, that should never be charged for.
The software is about $400 and it may/may not
work. You don't actually purchase it from them, but from another company. The Scam company does not offer support for the software because you didn't buy it from them and the company you did buy it from is probably a sister company to Scam and you don't get any help there either.
I don't know how they are even still in business. They have moved to a different state and changed their names at least once.
If you have money to just throw away I'll send you my account number - LOL.
Different Software
Does anyone know of any other software besides Express Scribe? Do not like new version. When I tried it, it made my dictation sound worse even before I made adjustments. Does anyone have any advise?
Thanks
escription software
Can anyone help me where to buy or download escription software??

Transcription Software
I'm just starting out on this new adventure. I didn't go to MT school. My experience lies with being a nurse for 7 years of various acute care specialties. I'm now a new mom and trying to stay home. Can anyone recommend transcription software that will make this easier for me? Thank you
Software Questions
What types of special software would I need to work at home as an IC? This is for a school project.
Thanks!
Firewall, Security Suite, Medical Spell Check, Line Count, etc. Anything eles anyone can add to this list?
best software for spellcheck
I am getting ready to start mentoring for Focus. I wanted to know what would be the best spell check for medicines and up to date. Also what is the best text Expander program. I have one from my school, but is there a better one to have?
Re: Selling Used Software (sm)
You can sell "used software," just make sure that it is legal! If you have one of the large storage packages, 600 MB for a complete CD are no problem. For some dial up users the upload is the expensive part of it!
You may include your registration details in a file and add it to the software package.
Note: You can sell your used software normally ONE time. If you sell the stuff several times (like an FTP client, etc.) this is surely not legal! So check your license gals!
Sharing software
My understanding has always been that it is not legal to share software to be installed on other computers. I believe there are exceptions to this; some programs are "sharable," but usually those are free programs to being with (in my experience). Microsoft programs come with a unique key that has to be entered when installing them.
My knowledge of software programs does not extend far beyond MS products, a few free downloadable programs and a few other miscellaneous software programs, so I apologize if I have given any incorrect information.
Interactive MT Software?
Does anyone know if there is such a thing as interactive software for MT practice and/or skill building? I think this is the kind of thing that would really help me, but have not found anything even remotely close to it. Any ideas appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Not all software works with the same pedals.

To $79 for a foot pedal? I bought my foot pedal on my own and so can anyone else. Why do they need to give the money directly to you?
Express Scribe is not the only software. nm

Well, it's the only software my friend was asked to buy!
Do you have an answer for that?
Let's say I have the foot pedal and software....sm
...how much, if anything, would you charge me?
line counting software
is it necessary to have line counting sofware or will the line counter on MS word work just the same?
You pay $397 for software and additional for a pedal.
Then you get to work for free until you are up to "standards," which will never happen. You will be unable to get a refund of your money. If you do a search for Trans@Am Associates either here or a web search (with the @ sign), you will find plenty of info as to why it is a scam. You can also check with BBB in Florida.
You pay 400 bucks for their proprietary software, you
end up in training forever and you're never quite good enough to earn real money. There have been so many people screwed over by them it's not even funny. Don't fall for their Christian act either. They make Christian's look bad.
No way to tell. Is the software easy to use? Will you be looking up addresses? Making a log? Having

Don't pay to work for anyone except to get software/pedals that you can use for other companies.

We can discuss this via email if you would like but the software was never free. nm

Depends on if your machine could be integrated with the different software

court reporter software does integrate
yes, i recently purchased a software that allows my steno machine to act as the keyboard. hence, typing at a speed of 225 wpm.
i also have 20 plus years of medical terminology exposure with 3 quarters of medical terminology while in school. i've taken several depos through the years where the doctor is just reading verbatim from his op report, so i got pretty familiar with the different types of medical records through the years.
you guys are the experts here. i am looking for a way to work from home in order to be with my daughter. i know the pay would be less but i never wanted to be a millionaire anyway.
my strength would be my ability to produce a lot of lines in a day. i know there's probably a lot more to learn, but do you guys think this is something i could transition into without needing to go back to school?
They've used MediTech software in the past, don't know about

Past posts say have to PAY for software to work for
fg
Please help! Did you guys have to buy the software or did the company provide them?
I'm just trying to figure out if I'm actually doing this whole process right or not.....II know I have to purchase some things, but want to make sure I'm not being taken.
If a company wants you to work for them they should provide the software. sm
You will have to buy some hardware (foot pedal etc) but the either the software is free (express scribe) or they provide it. This is just my experience but I did see that company when I first started and I did almost take a job with them until I was told the same thing. Good luck!!
most software applications require high speed. sm
problem with dial up is like using a little pipe to get water into your home. The pipe is too little to allow a big flow. Your program will crawl on dial up. Do a search for wireless internet and your nearest town. I cannot get cable or DSL here but found out there is a tower half mile from my house that is wireless. I didn't know it and they sure didn't tell me. So check around that way. Until you get high speed, most likely you will be unable to work unless you find a place that transfers .wav files from an FTP site.
For testing I needed software that I could download free
but I could not get the footpedal to work. Anybody have experience with this? I downloaded Express Scribe to listen to the dictation.
Thanks in advance.

Microsoft Word/Microsoft Word 2003 are the same
MS Word 2007 is an upgrade. Are you sure that you don't have it installed on your PC? I don't know if that helps...good luck, and please don't pull your hair out, it comes out with age (lol)
Are you getting your line count from your program or can you use the line counting software to do

Word
When I have to copy and paste admission notes, for example, and then have to reformat the whole page, all the BOLD HEADINGS become BOLD HEADINGS. Then I have to go back and re-bold them all. Is there a fast way to jump between headings, besides just scrolling?
Just go to the Word help
section of this website. It's wonderful!! I've been in the business five years and still use it quite, quite often.

How do I use word help? Do I have to pay any money? Do I have to be signed up with anything? How long does it take for me to get an answer. Thanks everyone.
Need help with a word.
the word is in regard to a type of incison for laparoscopic hernia surgery. No mesh was necessary. Sounds like lachsimen incision was made and there was no tension.
One word...E-bay.
You can find most of the books you would need on E-bay. If not, Amazon.com has a used book section that will save you some money. Also, you can buy directly from Stedman's and sometimes find discounts of their word books.
Pay by the word
I work for a company that pays me .02 cents per word. It is for a research company and it brings me in a nice sized paycheck. It's definitely a fair price I feel. Hope this helps.
I am sure she will take your word for that.

Hi,
Has anyone heard of Officebestdeals.com? They are advertising Microsoft word 2003 for 11.95. So cheap!! Kind of hesitant. Any information on that would be appreciated.
Thanks,
