Shorthand vs FlashType

I downloaded the Shorthand Expander trial for 30 days.  I like it a lot and am thinking seriously about buying it, but now I wonder about FlashType.  Is it really just like Shorthand?  (if so, I could save $30 with FlashType).  Can I convert my Autocorrect terms to FlashType like I can in Shorthand?  I tried to download FlashType several times to try it out, but I can't open it (something about "proper license not found." 


I have about 20 days left on my Shorthand trial, so I'd appreciate your opinions about both programs.  Thanks!   



Flashtype vs shorthand
I downloaded the trial of ShortHand and have looked at flashtype and saw that it was cheaper, but wondered how they compared to each other.  Anybody use Shorthand and Flashtype and like one over the other.
I use Flashtype too. I think it's like $60 and works for me

What are the pros/cons of FlashType, IT, Shorthand

Gotta say that Flash Type works exactly the same and is cheaper.


{@KEY BkSp}-pack-per-year is for Shorthand. Using the semicolon works with both Shorthand and

;yo = -year-old


;py= -pack-year


etc...


Check out the free demo of FlashType to see if it works and it's priced right.

Shorthand works.
email me if you need any more info
ShortHand works just like that. $100. And you can try it out first.

Shorthand works wonderfully with DQS

Shorthand, I believe works in all Windows
programs.  It works in my email, etc. so should work in Works also
I use Shorthand. It works great in there. sm
The Scribe platform is easy to use once you are used to it. My lines have doubled in the past two months. I use Shorthand for EVERYTHING.

Go to www.pcShorthand.com. There is a trial version.
Shorthand is by far the best expander and works with everything. nm

ShortHand is up to version 9, at least, now, as it's what I have. Maybe v.10 is in the works?? nm

Shorthand works with Mysis
Haven't tried any others but I use SH with it.
Yes, Shorthand works with Meditech.

I have only worked in one version of Meditech, Meditech Magic, and it is easy to use.  There are other versions, though.  I'm sure they are easy also. 


Just make sure you get a list of what the function keys do in your version.


Shorthand works everywhere in Windows.
Can't speak for that platform specifically... but ShortHand for Windows works everywhere, including e-mail, instant messaging, and every other place that you type. They even have a 30-day free trial so you can download and test it out before laying out the $$.
Try opening up ShortHand before log in. Works with other systems like that. nm

Use ExText for 1 job. Love it! Works with my ShortHand. Wish they all used it! nm

I use ShortHand with my ExText. Works great! nm

Shorthand works for me on message boards. nm

Shorthand works with every program, it works outside the program you use, does not interfere.

Shorthand works great with DQS and is half the price

It is an older DOS-type environment - works well with Shorthand. sm
Lots of menus, especially in radiology, but ShortHand helps you get through them very quickly is you write macros to just stop where you need to.

It can be very productive with good line counts if you are paid by the line.

Personally, I loved it, but that was because I did very well with our incentive program on it.

I use Shorthand for Windows and love it. I have found it works well with most every program. SM

I have used with Word and Word Perfect.  I have used it with Meditech and Cerner.  I have used it with RadNet and StarNavigator for Radiology.  I can use it with my email applications and on the internet if I choose.  If the Expander is open and running, you can use it with any and every window program you use.


I was really simple to learn to use too.  Very user friendly.


You should not be having that problem, Shorthand works "ouside any program." Contact Shorthan

You can download Shorthand, choose the "capitalize first letter" option. SH works with ExText

I will do both too, but I charge significantly more for tapes nm

That's funny because after we went through CCCS our score went up significantly. nm

VBC only okay if pay increases
I also quit Chronicle due to the low line count, VBC, etc.  I was told that they justified it by using a 55 black character line, but it really did not help at all.  I read the report of that meeting, and it does not appear that they discussed an increase in pay.  No, there is no surprise here.
Installing 2 AV wouldn't this slow down the computer significantly?..sm
If I will ever be dissatisfied with McAfee, I would switch to Norton, but never to a free AV.
DQS pay increases/decreases
Well, I have worked for MQ for nine years, got a raise in 1998, then asked for one two years ago and got a quarter of a cent.  When I went on DQS in the beginning of the year, I got a call from the regional manager that anyone who goes on DQS  gets cut in pay cause you can make so much more on DQS.  I said okay, as Im not one to rock the boat.  However, I make about the same but work many more hours on DQS. 
pay RMT rate increases (what does RMT mean) sm
footers and spaces on every page.  We pay RMT rate increases of .0015 cpl;
CMT rate increase of .0025 cpl and shift differentials for 2nd, 3rd and

rate increases

For me, being an IC for 20+ years has meant that I have had to be conservatively competitive with my rates so that I've been less likely to be outsourced. When I've asked my clients for per line rate increases, it's due to an increased expense to operate a quality service, i.e., additional security software, increased internet service cost, data backup, transfer/FTP service cost, etc.


knowledge increases productivity
My productivity is up and down. I have found that with doctors and report-types that I am use to typing my productivity is higher, with new docs and new/rarely typed report a lot lower. I think only knowledge can increase your productivity, when you can anticipate what the doc will say next because you have a true knowledge of what you are typing. (please excuse typos.. I am on a quick break)
I have never found a program shorthand does not work with, it works outside the program (I think tha

Shorthand works for Radnet. I love Radnet BTW! nm

You can use Shorthand in ANY program, it works outside your program
I have never found a platform it did not work with and I have worked on several different versions of Meditech. Just start using it.
Shorthand and SpeedType are exact same program. Shorthand will cost you lots less.
you can import your autocorrect into Shorthand.
I took shorthand too. But it sure comes in helpful for my expanders. I view words in shorthand for
i did use shorthand once in a job but i was so nervous the "boss" took pity and dictated the report on dictaphone.
FlashType
Is there a way to print out a list of the shortcuts you have installed in the FlashType program?  If there is, I can figure it out.  Please  help!
