In Reply to: Mine didn't seem to work when I had it minimized, so I'm stuck using their own expander, which - stinks. Not staying, anyway. nm
Download a free version and give it a try. If not I find that PC Shorthand works with just about anything.

Shorthand shortcut
May I ask the name of the shorthand shortcut software you use?
Use shortcut keys
I forgot to say you should use all of the shortcut keys.
Alt K will take you to the red block and Alt . (period) will put a period at the end of the sentence as well as capitalize the next sentence.
Try practicing these.
Are there any other shortcut programs out there (sm)
besides Shorthand? I just wondered if there were any others so I could check out their programs and prices. I downloaded ShortHand and it's pretty good but just want to know if there are more programs out there. Thanks!
I use ShortCut for Windows also...
I found it simpler to use than ShortHand (I also had downloaded the free trial and decided not to buy). BUT with ShortCut I have problems having it expand words. I called tech support and he said to turn off AutoCorrect in any programs I have running (I had to re-do my Expanders from AutoCorrect to ShortCut but I'm sure if I had wanted to spend the time I could have copied them from AC to SC). Tech also said to open ShortCut BEFORE any other programs.
Anyways, sometimes ShortCut will not expand a word. I then have to use backspace up to the last letter of the previous word, then space, then type the short form. It will expand if I do this. That is extra Keystrokes that should be unnecessary.
Bottom line, for me is.....I use ShortCut because it is simple to use and I did not have time to learn a new Expander program.
Maybe ANON has fixed this on his/her program. Would like to know.
Of course I use the shortcut keys, but
what do the shortcut keys have to do with the quality of the work that ISR spews out? The whole idea is that we shouldn't have to do much editing!! That is the whole premise behind ISR. But my experience has been one of very tedious time consuming editing that never gets any better. Often times even seems to be getting worse. I'm just giving my experience.
Would you happen to have a link for ShortCut? (sm)
I Googled it & came up with nada. Would be interested in taking a test drive if possible.
TIA 
They also recommend ShortCut for Windows. nm
