They come out with an updated version every year.
Stedman's is the best spellchecker on the market IMO.   FYI:  All caps is considered yelling. 
It's really not a great idea to disable Windows updates. Just because updates are scheduled to be
installed, does not mean 7.0 will be automatically installed on your pc.  You will always receive a notification when installing anything other than critical updates, which 7.0 is not.
It will still work, but will not allow you to receive updates.

This is why I uploaded the 4.15 version. It's a previous version

My guess is you need an updated
and if you use your own PC you really should have "someone" to call for things like this - maybe a local tech shop or BestBuy kind of thing.
Thanks much - why is it so scary?? I have not updated my

Here is the updated link

Most MTSOs have not updated their
platforms, programs, etc. That is why so many also do not use Vista.
Works is a dumbed down version of Word and Excel. You get the full version of Word in the Suite.
The Works Suite is a cheaper way of getting a full version of Word if you don't want or need the other applications in Office.

Updated info on CyMed?

Hi -


First time ever on this board and I've been an MT for 15 years.  Worked for Healthscribe before Spheris took over (3 years) and now work for another company...but looking elsewhere.  Can anyone give me their honest opinions about CyMed?  I just tested with them, extremely easy to me, but I HATE changing job.  However, job I have now....isn't paying the bills at all, waiting for work constantly, they are going to start off-shoring, etc.  I'm single, have 1 child, lost a great job last year working by the hour (outside of home), but lost the job (don't even ask). I loved it, but got screwed. Now I'm just depressed, disgusted, broke, etc., and very stressed and worried. I'm going to have to get out of transcription or something.  This just isn't working and I seriously would appreciate any good or bad.   I talked to a man there for over an hour yesterday.  He was extremely patient and took his time explaining everything I asked. 


Thanks in advance everyone!   


I also prefer the internet because it is always updated
I like rxlist especially if I need to verify the dosage or preparation, look up s/l.
I like healthdigest because I can look up drugs by their first letter/s, or look up drugs by typing the indication (hypertension, hyperthyroidism, cancer) or the route (rectal, vaginal, topical ophthalmic) in its search engine to see the possible drugs there (if s/l or first letter/s are leading me nowhere). I like americarx.com for OTC drugs. Drugs@FDA is also a good reference. PDR Health (gettingwell.com) has categorized its drugs into Rx, OTC, herbal, and nutritional. There are tons of other drug sites which you will find useful just by using the google's search engine.
We got an updated set of account guidelines constantly
put somewhere different than it was last week, they'd tell us to change something and when we changed it they sent it back and told us not to change it anymore.  They blamed things on us that weren't even anything we do, like if someone was on vacation and a report didn't get sent to the right place. People started to get threatened with termination (not me but I know people who were) for even the most miniscule reason like forgetting to sign off a doc as a DO instead of an MD. They were just unreasonable bullies and the more they complained and fussed the more Diskriter management bowed to their every wish and created a monster.  Good luck if you end up there.  It could have been a nice account if this nonsense had been nipped in the bud.
Both, but mostly books, Internet sites not updated often enough.
Some are, but I find it mostly a waste of time having to surf through pages of links to find exactly what I want.
Anybody have to visit the hospital lately to an updated system? sm

I have gone recently for a medical problem and I am amazed how they have everything networked to different departments.


So I didn't like watching my wages go down and I now work for specialists, but it was such a nice hospital visit.  I was in and out of there in no time with no waiting.  It was an amazing system.  And this is a large acute care hospital!  I was absolutely amazed.


And get 2 new drug books every year when updated in Jan/Feb. nm
s
book was apparently updated in 2005
Amazon.com has one called "Saving Keystrokes" by same author with new copies and 25 used.  I have the older edition.  This might be even better. 
There are updated macros in all versions of Word
except 2007. The macro for 2000 is called macros9.dot and can be downloaded from the Microsoft site. The AutoCorrect Utility in 2002 & 2003 is in the support.dot template that is included with Word. You can go to this site to get the macro for 2007:

Or you can simply locate your .acl file and back that up. It's easy to find if you add an entry and then do a search for it by the date modified. Just make sure you are searching hidden files and folders.

updates
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/render.aspx?displaylang=en&content=updateservices#

click "Microsoft Update"

click "Express"

you have to do this in Internet Explorer.
updates
the whole software was installed via net, and they say there has been no problem ever with that with other users, and it seems this is the latest software they are having.
Agree w/the Tessier's, but I don't think plans are in the works for an updated one. :( nm
s
They don't do yearly updates and never have. If you must
get hysterical about something at least get the real information about what you are carrying on about. Statements like this just make folks dismiss what you are saying because you don't know what you are talking about.
Anyone more updates on MQ bankruptcy?
  When I read that note on this board a week or two ago, it got me really worried.  I'm working really hard right now training on a new MQ account, and the thought of losing my job in the near future makes me want to cry.  Any feedback out there?  Does anyone know what's going on? 
Go to CNN.com for all of your news updates.
I also get my local newspaper online free.  Why pay and kill trees when the highlights are all on the internet?
Automatic updates, or

You may have to update your calendaring programs and some cell phones as well.

Did security updates; seems all better now. -- nm

I have an HP and intermittently get updates for it...sm
Might try that before you uninstall and reinstall. Good luck!
My four beautiful granddaugters from two years ago...hmmm, need to get an updated picture (nm)
..
internest is not updated fast enough? I book you buy in January was put together mid last year..how
nm
Waiting for what? They don't do yearly updates.
What else is there to say? But if you want to keep on whining about something that is untrue be my guest.
Stedman's with the yearly updates. nm
s
MS Word has updates, just as Windows does. Have you
.
I was only going to get the book, but no more online updates. sm
You need to get the CD in order to get updates. Ellen Drake said on www.mtchat.com that the CD is much better than last year's.
right, I agree, but just sharing my story so folks stay updated about the field
x
I use Avast...it updates almost every day and runs in the background....
all the time. If I get an email attachment within attachment from forwards, it checks all of them before I even open it. It's a free program, too.
Thanks! Do you have a spellcheck that includes drug updates?

The Stedman's and then you buy the yearly updates afterward. nm
s
Thanks for the updates, glad to hear things
are going well for you. Go to church together, even if you split. Life can get better. God bless!
I have used Spellex for years never had a problem with the updates
I'm sorry to hear that. To each his/her own. I have used Spellex for years never had a problem with the updates. I would encourage anyone to try out software before you buy it.
Need to load some microsoft updates, need assistance here
I was told to go to microscoft and upload the latest - got the information to go to windows and click the express button and download and install. Where in the heck is the express button? Don’t see that anywhere. Thanks.
If it's a retail version you can. If it's an OEM version, you can't.

If you have not switched over to the new website for MQ updates call 800 dictate and get that done
and you will find that news on there.
