In Reply to: If the doctor says it, I transcribe it. It is his/her report, not mine. - definitely heard it before
It may seem shocking to some, but the physician is actually making a permanent record of what it is said. I've typed many reports in my 28 years doing transcription, including sexual assaults on adults, as well as young children. As revolting and shocking as some of the things that are said may be, I just type them as they are stated. If the report is used in court, and the Transcriptionist typed "the patient stated she was beaten and #_________", how is the judge and jury supposed to fill in the blank, used their imaginations?

You might have a "bold" code in your document at that point sm
That you are not aware of. That's one of my pet peeves about Word - their "reveal formatting" is not nearly as thorough or precise as the one in WordPerfect. In WordPerfect, you would be able to see the bold code and eliminate it easily.
Next time you start a numbered list, look at the document before you start the list and see if there might be any bold codes that you will run into while you're doing the list. If you can figure out where it is, you might eliminate the problem entirely.
Can you save the document as a Word document? nm

There is a medicolegal section on
the job board . . . rarely any new jobs there, but if you go to the Job Seeker's Board and then Job Bank, it is one of the choices there.
Medicolegal board?
Someone told me there was one on MTStars. Just do not see where it may be. Can someone point the way? Thanks much!

AAMT CEs for medicolegal
Does anyone have any ideas as to where I can find anything that I can use for medicolegal CEs for AAMT recertification? I believe I have enough articles to summarize from JAAMT and Plexus for the other categories, but can't find any for medicolegal, and I understand after March 2007 we will need 6 in medicolegal. There are not many seminars, etc around here, that I know of. Any help would be appreciated. If anyone has articles they have used for medicolegal CEs, can you please let me know, e-mail them to me, or tell me where you found them at least. Thanks for any help anyone can give me.

The easy part is making the decision to leave, the hard part is
actually doing it. Been in your shoes and it took me a year and a half to leave after I had made the decision to do so. It was the best thing I have ever done for myself and my girls. I had family and friends and a counselor telling me what needed to be done and I knew what needed to be done but until I had the courage on my own to do it I stayed. One day, we had an argument and he spit in my face and that was the last straw for me. Even though it is something that I will NEVER forget, that day is also a day I will never forget because it is the day that I took my kids and left. I am a single mom of 2 and have been single and supporting us for 5 years now. I have been healing ever since and still am to this day. You can do this. I know that if I hadn't have left and I would have stayed one of us would be dead by now or both.
I didn't apply, so that's a moot point. The point I was making is that
she's ranting here about something that doesn't even pertain to most of us. You can't come to a MT message board railing at MTs without getting a response. That's why it's not called MTSOstars. Also, it's unprofessional of a business owner to let her emotions overrule her common sense. As for the newbies, they'll learn. We were all newbies at one time or another. None of us was born perfect, not even the MTSO.

What Document is that?
FootOnmyNeck?
Is your document (sm)
going "full screen" when you do this? If so, use Alt-V to pull the View menu and change the view back to normal. I'm guessing you are hitting Alt-V instead of Ctrl-V for pasting. If you are in full screen mode, there should be a little box floating that says "close full screen." Clicking that will change it back too.
Do you want a new document to...
to show the template or the new blank page within the current document to show the template? In other words, is every report created in a document of its own or are all the reports created in one document containing several reports? Either way, I would think a macro would be very useful. You could use a macro to insert the template on the blank page of new document or, if several reports are joined together to form a document, you could make a macro that would create section break at the end of the current report and insert the template on a new page.
Don't get mad, just document.
Save QA e-mails in an e-mail folder. Then when you get conflicting messages, simply forward the conflict to the QA and very respectfully say that this feedback seems to be conflicting, so there must be something you don't understand.
If for some reason they do this over the phone, I'd ask if you could get that in writing so you'll be able to keep the rules straight.
Don't get mad, just document
The corrections go into an on-line type folder. I have e-mailed the person in charge stating that feedback seems to be conflicting. The response? There wasn't any. One Editor correcting the work will say "good report" while the next will do just the opposite even though you set up/type basically the same way. Some days I get so upset I could literally cry. I love the work but how can one please when the editors are not on the same page? Really broken at heart over the whole thing. :-(
So I can see the document (sm)
otherwise, it runs off to the right of the page.
Did you try it elsewhere in the document?
When I entered the cm2 as a formatted auto correct, it did make everything suprascript; however, go to another line and type the cm2 there. It should work correctly. Just don't know why it won't on the original. Let us know if you're successful.
Maybe it has to do with how you have your document set up?
did you try to hit F11 anyway? Usually you cannot see them after you save the document.. but they a

document is a template

Word document
Here is what I do . . . sort of the same thing. I sometimes work on temp jobs and if I think I know how the client wants something, but I am not 100% sure I highlight the area. The MTSO will then return my work -- if she makes a change she will highlight so I can find it easily and if what I did was okay she simply will remove the highlighted area and the report is good to go on to the doctor. It is very simple to highlight an area and just as easy to remove it. It won't exactly show what your MT did wrong, but the MT will know that you changed something that is hightlighted and see the correct way of typing. If she has her original she can match your highlighted area with her original to compare.
Make sure you are at the top of the document
It has been a while for me, but I still have the function key template card that goes overtop of the F keys.
Word document
I have sent really large Word files as an attachment even using dial-up.
Why don't you still just type 1 document - sm
then when done with all the sound files, then upload that 1 document? I do short little blips for a doctor, and she sends me 30 or so voice files and I type them up in one document for her unless it is a letter, then that is its own file. The then cut/paste the correct paragraph into the patients file at their end. (each blip has the patient's name and visit date). Did your doctor decide to change things from how you were doing it before?

If it worked earlier in the document SM
the paintbrush on the toolbar - highlight a paragraph (including the paragraph mark itself) that DOES work, click painter, then click in the paragraph you want to reformat and it should add that tab (as well as any other embedded formatting in the paragraph you copied from).
can anyone document anterobasal hypokinesis?
That is so true. A document that is signed
is read as having been approved by the signer of that document. We have no way of knowing whether the doctor reads the document or not. In the case of the digoxin dose mentioned above, even if an MT transcribes the wrong dosage (though one should be very careful not to), if the doctor read the note he/she should catch the error before signing his/her name.

change spacing in a document..SM
I know I saw here a long time ago..a way to change your doc to single
space inside Word..I mean to change a typed page that has 2 spaces after periods
back to 1 space..Does anybody know how to do this. TIA
Just last night I took a long document
with 3 jobs in it - figured it out with spaces and w/o spaces - both 65 character - note you said 55.... There was a 15.4% difference in pay.... I would suggest you just take a document in Word and do as I did but figure a 55 character line - Word does not have real accurate line counting program apparently - but I used the same document for all my figuring so worked for what I needed it for.
Can someone please tell me how to see document codes in Word?..nm

Open up a word document to use as a
template. Do view header. Go into th e header of your word document. Go back to your scanned document, highlight the pic and right click to copy. Then go back to your word document that you created and paste into the header. Do the same if there is a footer. Hope this helps.
That does not change the name inside the document, does it?
It is obvious that we OK it, but still does not change name on document; only changes demo page information. If you know better how to do this, please post again.
I have a Word document question.
If anyone can help that would be great. I have header and footer boxes that are really large, so now they are throwing off my already existing templates. When I went for help in Word, it tells me how to make them smaller, but they just keep going back to the regular size. Is there a way to change this across the board for all of my preexisting word documents? 
word97 to 2003 document help
Hi,
I have to use a form where I have the patient name and dob on the same line. BUT when I type in the patient name, it moves the DOB over every time. I then have to back it up to have it formatted right. Could someone please tell me how I can get this to NOT keep moving? I remember having this problem on a form I converted from word5.1 to 97 several years ago and someone here helped me with something that fixed that. Please if anyone knows how to fix this would be such a time saver as some days I am doing this for 80 patient files.....urghhhhhh.
thank you.

I remember checking a document
where the dr had said I was depressed, not because I showed symptoms, but because of something he perceived in a question I asked him. Needless to say, I found a new Dr. That one was obviously mysogynistic before he even got his practice off the ground.
while in a document, help and then user guide
it'll open a whole website of indexes and instructions... what are you having trouble with?
yes. In a document, hit CTL CTL to open your abbreviations sm
then hit File and Save As. Then save them in My Documents as your name.esp e.g. Jane.esp. You should then be able to transfer them to a jump drive. Best of luck!
