ABCZ System

ABCZ System
Try the ABCZ Abbreviation Typing System. The basics of the system are explained in detail at the website link below. You do not have to purchase anything. You can enter all of your own expansions using the system. However, they do have dictionaries for sale that already have thousands of words, phrases, and drug names entered.

Is ABCZ the most productive?

I am just curious.  Do you all productive MTs feel that the abcz method/system is more productive than other systems?  I need to double my production.  I am only getting 800 lines a day and I need 2000, but I cannot work 24 hours a day! 


Thanks


Google ABCZ method.

Is there a Smartype version of ABCZ?

Those are the two Expanders that I use. 


Thanks again


ABCZ expanders for Smartype?
I need the Smartype version of an ABCZ exapander shortcut list.  Anyone know where I can find a list like this that is already in the Smartype format? Thanks
instant text abcz
I am wondering---I am new to Instant Text (although OLD to transcription) and am still teaching myself to utilize instant text....I need to have someone sitting by me showing me, that's how I learn, but really, who cares.  Anyway, is ABCZ a part of Instant Text or is that a separate program?  I truly believe per Miss Indigo in a post below that really it is about working smarter and faster and that is the secret to making the bucks.  Anyway, any info appreciated.  thanks!
instant text abcz
So it is just a way for me to input short cuts?  It's not already in there?
instant text abcz
Ah HA!  now I get it.  thanks so much!
Instant Text and abcz

Happy Holidays everyone!


I was wondering if anyone uses the abcz method with Instant Text and if they were pleased with it.


Does anyone know of a place where it can be downloaded? Or any other suggestions?


People have been helpful and my productivity is inceasing but still need more help!


As always, thanks to all for your willingness to help!!


I just purchased the ABCZ glossaries for IT sm
A few weeks ago, and I am glad I did.  It was definitely worth it.  I like that I didn't have to start over from scratch to start following a system.  I used his files and then used the workshop to convert my enteries over to the ABCZ system.  It has been a big help to me.  With 2 small kids I didn't have the time to try to figure out my own system and start creating the entries, so ABCZ was perfect for me. 
ABCZ Typing Assistant-

Has anyone used any of the ABCZ files from the following site, in particular this file "ABCZ Typing Assistant Version 2 - TAMed2C " ?http://home.earthlink.net/~agjon/abczTA.htm


I have Instant Test and was wondering if there was a way to create your own ABCZ shortcuts with the "importer"?


Thanks


 


 


 


Jon's files use a set rule of ABCZ and that works for everybody.

Yeah, I use the ABCZ method too. Didn't know that was what it was called.

You are right, the normal function is when you highlight your text and then higt ctrl+y and a little window pops up asking for a description and an abbreviation.  For the description, I always start with my initials and a dash and then the actual description.  That way all my normals are grouped together in the list and I don't have to sort through everybody elses to get to mine.


Do a Google search for ABCZ for lots of sites.

ABCZ expander shortcuts for Instant Text

I am in search of abcz Expander shortcuts already made into a list or glossary for Instant Text or Smartype.  Does anyone know where to find them? 


Thanks


Yeah, just like ABCZ which I used in auto correct and SmartType, I think.
Bottom line, they increase production, TAT, quality and salary. My company provides us with 2 different ones because they are like a raise in wages. And companies have less employes and taxes, everyone is happy.'

Sorry about confusion and typos, I do not have my glasses on lol (they are in this house somewhere, i just know it!).
ABCZ word/phrase list for Autotext?
Does anyone know where an ABCZ word/phrase list for Autotext (not autocorrect) can be found? 
I made up my own abcz list; based on yrs of how it's already stored on Excel.
