tired of the web based programs and lost reports. Are there any companies still using Word where you can just type into the Word program already on your computer? Those were the good old days.:) TIA

WordPerfect vs. Word - similar? Is WordPerfect easy to learn? OK with both on one PC? Thanks. nm

WordPerfect companies
Are there any good companies out there that employ ICs from home that primarily use WordPerfect? If Word could prove to me it's better, I might consider switching, but I honestly don't think it's better for what we do. Don't want to get into a debate about that, BTW,  but just curious as to what companies might be a good option.
WordPerfect companies
Thanks to everyone who replied!  Keep 'em coming! ~~~T.J.
Wordperfect
Does anyone know of any companies that specifically use Wordperfect? Thanks a bunch.
The companies that pay by the word don't even pay 1 cent

Companies that use word and FTP transfers
Does anyone know which companies are still using Word and transfering documents and voice via FTP? Thanks in advance.
WordPerfect - LOVE IT
I made hundreds of lines more in less time on WordPerfect than I do using Microsoft Word. As far as I'm concerned, Microsoft was the ending of my money-making days. I guess if you never worked on anything else - you have nothing to compare it to - but I would work on wordperfect again in a minute if i could find someone who still used it.
any companies with total MS WORD platforms
 Are there ANY decent companies to work for who have totally MS WORD based platform for the work... i.e. you can use the autocorrect and/or some other word Expander than shorthand?
I have HAD it with these nasty platforms that are from the dark ages... worse than WP5.1. meditech, chartscript, docuscribe stuff, bayscribe ......
I think it's mostly very small companies that use ftp/Word anymore

Any companies offering just plain Word and upload to FTP?

Can Wordperfect quick correct can be imported to
I'm stuck, big time. I have tons of entries on my quick correct on Wordperfect 12, but I have to switch to Word 2007. Is there a way to import them from Wordperfect to Word 2007?
I would be forever grateful if someone can help me figure this out ;)
Thanks so much!
The platform is Word. Their program works with Word but does not change how Word works. nm
The benefits just changed the first part of this month. I don't have them but I remember them being reasonabl for a single person. Family and spouse was not reasonable in any way (in my opinion).
small to medium company that works in Word or Word-based program - email me. nm

ExText is integrated with Word. Auto correct is a part of Word.
ExText is a Word based platform. When the page opens for you to type the document it will be just like you are typing in MS Word.
anyone work for Oracle - do they use Word or a Word-based program - e-mail me nm

Just wanna work in Word - need company that works in WORD! nm

Their program works with Word and does not change how Word functions. sm
You use your own expander. Overall I feel it is user friendly and I like it.
Does the Emdat platform use Word or is it Word-based? nm

Word for Word Medical Transcription
Pros and cons please.
In his ad, he's asking for Word Perfect, not Word, if that matters. nm

The platform is not Word, but it is Word-based. I
had little Word experience and the recruiter told me to try to find a book to learn the basics of Word as their program is Word-based.
Now I wish they would just call me back......no word no word and
What is up with these MT companies that advertise. They don't even answer. I have a great resume, tons of experience. I'm confused.
word for word company
does anyone know about word for word transcription company? how are they to work for, platform? thanks in advance!
I was told I could use word pad since I don't have word
I have 1 computer to speak of that I did not buy personally. the company has their own platform and their own computer to be rented. I would not be typing in word. I have never had a problem testing this way before. I am not saying certified is better. I was explaining my circumstance. I have my own personal computer ordered for my use and I wanted to test fast without waiting. geez.
"overtime" is not a generic word. "incentive" is a generic word. Over time means time

TransTech and Medware, are these companies considered large, medium-sized or small companies? (sm)
TIA
Yikes.. That is only inline with companies like Focus and such. "Real" companies pay their MTs
decent rate. I make over 5 cpl editing. So, if I got that slap in the face, I'd be outta there.
Do the research...most companies, and not just MT companies, do not pay for maternity leave...
we get time off but not paid...and I really don't even understand the point of you posting this...
How do you know which companies are Nationals and which are smaller companies.
Is there a list somewhere? I'm new to this.
By "most of the companies", I meant MORE than MT companies.
clarification
Sten-Tel is the platform. Different companies use it, pay and how companies run are different. nm
:P
In Word..
Select the tools menu and then Autocorrect. Then check the box next to capitalize First letter of sentences.
Are you using Word? sm
If you are using Microsoft Word you can change the background to something that suits your eyes and the text to a lighter color.
One word - RUN!!!!
Owner is not all there, if you know what I mean. There are better places to work. Let them hire overseas. Perhaps those workers will put up with their garbage treatment.
Everything is done in Word
plenty of samples though, and she pays per gross line, not 65 characters.

I have Word 2003 and it works just fine

One word? Looks like 6 to me.

I worked for them and they can be fair, which is hard to find these days with others. I was a new MT and they gave me a chance that no one else would consider doing. good luck
Same here...no word nm

The new word for lay off.
The new word is idle, used as a verb. I doubt that the MTs will remain idle for long. What terrible writing, and what a terrible deal for MTs. I wonder whether Ormond will be happy when people from another country are transcribing his family's medical records.
Meanwhile, the company issued a federal layoff notice this week that it will idle 102 workers in its Heartland Information Services medical-transcription unit. Seven employees are in Toledo. A company spokesman said the cuts will occur in early July.

Still no word.....sm
Patience is not one of my greatest virtues! lol Anyway, if someone gets a response from Editors Wanted, could you email me please? Thanks!
Take MY word for it, -
I simply must disagree...
Take my word for it,
I've been paid both ways. Yes, they will say that all the exams equal themselves out, but with CT and MRI exams, etc. you can get some really long reports. You may get lucky and have short reports, but I highly doubt it!
Does anybody still use MS Word
I have started with two companies in the past six months (as an IC) using MS Word on my own computer, and no sooner did I get up to speed than they switched over to a platform. I can learn the platforms ok but just want to type and get paid; no BS. The platforms I've worked on all created more problems than they solved, especially with word expanders. And the line counts are no longer under your control, you have to accept whatever they tell you. Am I the only one who feels this way? The people I'm with now tell me to have patience and they'll work out the bugs in the system, but tell that to my mortgage company!

I worked for a company by that name about 30 yrs ago in New Mexico. Wondering if it is the same ladies, Sandy and Marie, who may have started it up again after the facility they worked for outsourced everything overseas. If it is true, both of these ladies are wonderful to work for. Please let me know, I would truly appreciate it.

Thanks for responding! I will definately let you know once I have found out!

Has anyone had any experiences with them, good or bad? TIA!
