system restore or auto recovery does not--sm
restore save documents as they were previous to being saved. Once they are saved, that is it. System restore will not bring it back.
Auto text entries are saved to the template.
Open a document (even a new, blank one). Click on Tools, Templates and Add-in. Click on the box at the bottom, Organizer. Choose the Auto Text tab. If the AT entires you're looking for are shown, make note of the template that they're attached to (in most cases, this will be Normal). If you want them to be copied to a new template, simply choose that template in the opposite box and copy any or all entries that you want to copy.

How can I get it to auto load the next file? sm

I'm also new to ES and can't figure out how to get it to auto load the next job file when I click "done" with the current file.  I have all my voice files in a folder and it loads them all, but sure would like to not have to manually load each new one.  Can anyone help?  TIA!


what is your auto-delete file setting at?
set it to 0...see if that helps
Importing Auto Correct file (.acl) into Bayscribe

Does anyone know how I would do this?  Any tips will be appreciated!!!  TIA


 


 


Go to file, settings, playback, auto backset on stop about half way down.....sm
I have mine on 1500. Hope that helps!
Are you sure you're using Auto Text and not Auto Correct?
Auto Text accompanies the template, as I stated before. The Auto Correct entries are in a separate file with the .acl extension.
Transferring Auto Correct/Auto Text

I work in Word currently and have a large number of AC/AT entries.  I am moving to a platform that has Instant Text or Shorthand.  Is it possible to transfer these entries as a file somehow, or am I going to have to enter by hand?  Also any comments welcome regarding the ease of use, etc of Instant Text versus Shorthand.


Thanks


 


I was going to say unless you were the original 3 brave souls named on the original suit.
I still had heard lately that no one else, not one person, had been allowed to join in, so you must be in a separate class??
RECOVERY
Help!  I had two documents going this morning and suddenly my main one disappeared and went blank.   I think I'm going nuts!  It was about 1000 lines and I shudder to think of redoing them. I ran the program with a patient name put in, but came up with nothing.  Any suggestions??
I never said to "leave God out of recovery" - sm

I'm a GOD person and would never have stated leaving God out of recovery - do you possibly have a reading comprehension problem?  Can you perhaps not separate for 10 minutes? 


I suggested a discussion on substance abuse for 10 minutes without bringing any of that into it.......for 10 minutes out of a 168-hour week.


 


Carpal Tunnel recovery

Hey All,


I have been putting off surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome, and am wondering if any of you have had carpal tunnel surgery.  How long was it before you could return to full-time transcription?  How much releif did the surgery give?  I also have developed a nodule on the inside of my right thumb,  right where it hits the spacebar and am having to hold my wrists up higher, like I am playing the piano, so I don't hit that spot on my thumb, and that makes my arms get numb faster than they usually do.  What a mess!


I just can't keep going much longer, but I am scared of the financial loss of not working for any period of time


 


Thanks in advance for any advice you can give!


Right now all of our efforts are to get her better and on the road to recovery. What may lie ahead
in terms of lawsuits, etc., will be addressed at a later date.  Her getting better is our #1 priority.  I was just amazed at how the process has been handled so far.  It really is a shame.
Guarded means there is plenty of room for recovery sm
I was in "guarded" condition many years ago with a catastrophic disease called vasculitis, polyarteritis nodosa, and still have it, am in remission. At the time I was working, walking, talking, living my life daily and had no idea anything was wrong. I had a cerebral aneurysm and still do. With treatment I went into remission three times, so guarded is certainly treatable. You certainly have my prayers.
All of mine were Demerol & Versed, out like a light, quick recovery. No recollection of anything. :)

Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

I think it is the same type of file, so rename it and replace your autocorrect file with your DQS us

Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm

I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank.  When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you


Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

Our refineries are closed
Our refineries to make gas are located in the gulf coast area. They were evacuated by the major oil companies on Saturday and Sunday and now they are caught up in the same damage as everyone else. Long lines and high gas prices because no one is currently manufacturing gasoline to supply those of us east of the Missippi, making what we have left from before the storm quite precious.
closed captions!
I put the TV on mute, but with closed captions on while I type. I hear with my ears, but read the tv with my eyes. I amaze people with this - and have been doing it for a decade!
closed caption
Thank you very much for the info.  Guess I'll stick with my MT career....but may still look into other avenues.  :)
closed pneumothorax?
Closed pneumothorax is air entering from the lung. Open pneumothorax is air entering from the outside.
This thread is closed. (sm)
I do want to comment that it is not being closed due to comments by the original "Mary" poster. It is, however, being closed because of everyone else's responses.

If you don't like the direction a thread is moving or disagree so strongly that you cannot make good contributions to the subject matter at hand, simply refrain from posting. It will die down, take a different direction, etc.

A thicker skin needs to be grown here. Everyone has their own opinion. It doesn't mean everyone will always agree. Threads can even get intense but they don't have to dwindle to personal insults.

...with your user.aco file. Save your autocorrect file to somewhere else. nm

You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.
Maybe, Live Help Closed is in caption (nm)

heaven should be closed to most IRS agents

As soon as possible, talk to an attorney who specializes in this. Ask them if you can file Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In many cases, you can ultimately pay up to 10% of a past owed date.

While this is being haggled in the courts, you can send money, or not. You will have the protection of the federal government, who will handle another branch of the federal government.

Just never miss a single payment to the courts.


IMO, a thread is closed when it is obvious
that nothing new is added to the OP and it deteriorates into a 'troll', unjustified insults, foul language and just tit for tat, going in circles.

True, as the moderator pointed out, it is not moderated for 'niceness.' but the post has to be civil. One can make a stronger point with politeness than with disrespect.
I am considering CART or closed captioning..
But I wonder that after transcribing for so many years, will my fingers be able to learn the theory needed to use the equipment. I would like to do the real-time captioning, as from what I have read, pays the best. Does anyone have any first hand knowledge or know anyone in this field?
"edit my reports with eyes closed"? what has that got to do with anything?
i don't live in a cave. i have a circle of local friends and family. i don't need an e-mail from a supervisor from gawd knows where to tell me i'm doing a good job. i'm doing a good job as evident by my paycheck twice monthly and my friends who want to spend time with me.

Now about this phrase - "I've been doing this over 10 years, independent and believe me I could probably edit your reports with my eyes closed my dear" WTF is that all about?
"edit my reports with eyes closed"? what has that got to do with anything? -
What are you rambling about about and could you PLEASE address the question asked of you in my TWO posts.

"edit my reports with eyes closed"? what has that got to do with anything?

WTF does this mean?
that was a judgemental and closed-minded comment

I closed my Delta Skymiles account. I won't fly with
them any more. Besides that, they tried to kill me and about 200 other people during one flight. Dang near crashed the plane and gave us all heart attacks.
closed captioning and court reporting
You should still consider it. If you are young enough to invest 4 to 5 years of school and entry experience, it may well be worth it. It certainly pays well,double to triple what medical transcription pays. Look into it.
I looked into the closed-captioning thing, and - sm
unfortunately (and quite OBVIOUSLY, if you ever see them in places like the gym, etc.), they are pretty much going to voice-recognition.

It's pretty funny reading all the misunderstood words VR does on TV! At least it makes the nightly news somewhat entertaining!

I had a friend go into court-reporting at the same time I went into MT. She tried to convince me to join her, but I (stupidly) picked MT because I knew I could get a job in only about 6 months while still working, whereas she was a full-time student and said that although you can learn it in a couple years, it takes a few more to really get up to speed, and start breaking into the job market.

So, let's see. That was back in 1975. She's still a court reporter, works when she wants, has good security, makes good money, put her kids through college, etc. And I don't have squat. Now I'm kicking myself for being so short-sighted and impatient back when I had a chance to get into a good middle-class line of work, instead of this __________! (Fill in the blank).
Post makes no sense. They need the closed

We closed our accounts before going with CCCS. Have been very pleased with the way they have handle

It is going to be very interesting to see how you people feel once your office is closed and you are
moved into a regional office on DQS and find that there are tons of other MTs on the accounts you always had. It is coming for everyone so you might be singing another song as time goes on. Enjoy it while you can. Time are changing.
Is this Holiday a major one? Clinics and offices closed?

I guess I am out of it.  How big of a holiday is this?  All the kids home from school today?  Post offices and banks closed?  Seems rather quiet work-wise.  Wondering if I should start cleaning the house or keep staring at the no jobs to do in my queue.


Thanks!


closed caption tv typing and court stenographer

You know the closed caption on TV programs, especially the Court TV transcripts....I wonder if those are computer-typed or human-typed.  If they're typed by humans, then any one of us could do a hundred times better, as there are typos all over the place! 


While we're on the subject....I wonder how much money a court stenographer makes, and wonder if it's more of a pain than it's worth.  They don't look very comfortable when they're typing in to their little machines.  Anyone know?


I thought I heard the Atlanta office was closed? Was I mistaken? nm

Veteran's day. Kids are out of school. Many doctor's offices are closed.

I just have it saved...sm
in my ShortHand under degrees and it expands to the symbol.
Here's how I saved $$$$
I don't use tapes! The only special equipment I bought was a foot pedal. I have my own 800# and no phone bills!  I pay a small monthly fee and a per minute charge for the time my docs dictate. I keep more of my money than ever before.  Email me and I'll give you my resource.
you just saved me $$$$ thanks
you just saved me $$$$ thanks
Well your statement sounds equally closed-minded to the one you're arguing with
Where one person prefers to live and why is their own business and no reason to diss someone else's personal choice.
Thank you Anne!! You saved me. I think you are right!!!
