There one here.  It's almost $30.  There are probably more reasonable ones.  This is just the first one I saw. 


Googled and found web site inside. sm

Has all the commands on there. Hope this helps you!
I googled this and found a definition of a wav. file.
WAV (or WAVE), short for Waveform audio format, is a Microsoft and IBM audio file format standard for storing an audio bitstream on PCs. ...  It is basically the format in which an audio file is saved.  There are all sorts of audio formats such as dss., wma., etc...Hope this helps!!

Wow, Aeron is $$$$. I googled, and I think that one is way out of my budget.
It looks like a great chair, tho.
I Googled it and the site wasn't
much help, didn't give any info on how the program works or what it really does. I emailed the company and asked a few questions, but haven't heard back from them either.
i googled and a bunch of crap came up

I just googled a little bit and see what you're talking about...
and I downloaded the zip file myself to see. Are you sure you extracted them to the correct place? I got 2 dll's and 1 ini that, according to the Readme, are supposed to go in the C:Program FilesNCH Swift SoundSCRIBE folder.

I guess if you did all that and it still doesn't work, the next step would be to contact NCH.

It sounds like you may have already been that route, and/or through the forums, though.
I googled it and didn't find anything - what are you talking about?

So where is this online BOS? have googled & cannot find anything except to purchase & have CD & Boo

I googled for external sound and came up with Soundblaser......
I went to their site, it was not expensive, I can't remember exactly, but the box is small, very easy to install, and the sound is absolutely wonderful!
Thanks. I'm adding to my shortcuts. I Googled and saw different spellings.

I googled it and Word 2000 is supported

Googled the company and could find no website for it. Weird.

Oh, I found it really creepy when you said you found the flowers not so skillfully arranged on your
steps, and from your own flower bed.  That's what I was worried about, having gone thru some psycho kids myself with my pups.  Someone's been in your yard and in your garden and at your door without your knowledge.  Its just creepy to me, and I'd still be very, very careful.  Especially valid sounded the other MTs warning you about potential fake molestation charges.  You just NEVER know nowadays, and these people have already turned on you big time once. Luckily (though I don't believe in luck), you had it on film to save yourself and your puppy.  You might not be that lucky next time, and the whole thing just sounds very unstable to me right now.  I know you feel sorry for the little girl, but probably the only time I have ever made BAD decisions regarding my life is when I felt sorry for someone, particularly kids.  My son even has an evil kid in his life, but one who has a million reasons for sympathy, and I was saying how we should "be bigger" than the situation and invite this kid over to play.  Thankfully, I regained my sanity long enough to remember - ever time I have done something like that on a personal basis for someone just because I feel sorry for them AFTER horrible behavior, it has always been a disaster... Be kind, but you don't have to risk your family again. Be kind from a distance.  Its sorry she went thru this horrible experience, but YOU didn't cause it, and its not really your problem.  But it could be your problem if this kid acts out in your life.  Know what I mean?
I think I found it, found multiple recipes with the same
exact ingredients so I figure this must be it.

Makes me wonder
I've heard how many times that children that are mean to animals are being mistreated in some way. After hearing how this little girl (at only 10 years) is so brutal, makes me wonder how she is being treated by the adults in her life.
I think they do it because it makes you
pay attention to them - you cannot just continue working without at least talking (yelling, touching them to move them) to them.  At this time, they are seeking any type of attention, even if it is negative.   Same with cats flopping out on my keyboard. 
That's what makes me so

1/cent for no reason....I'm telling you the CHECK is fulfilling


some legal purpose.  Please run this past an attorney again.


I will try to call Drew, Eckl et all on Monday myself too.


What makes you think

You have such a wonderful personality. You bring such warmth and compassion to the board.

Just about a week ago it was 80 degrees and now it is winter all over again. Kinda nice since I don't have to go out tonight though. Just stay warm and dry at the computer.
doc makes me so mad.....
I have a 24-48 hour TAT contracted with 7 docs.  90% of their work is returned in 24.  One of them constantly wants rush jobs, sometimes asking before they've even sent me the work!   Then always had to do him first.  Since each doc's dictation comes at different times, I now have to stop what I'm doing and get his done the minute it comes through.  I just think he's such a demanding jerk!! 
She makes that much just as an LPN? What
state is this in, if you don't mind me asking? Thanks!
Yes, it makes since as that is what

You can use Ctrl + Shift + hyphen and Ctrl + Shift + Space for the hard hyphen and hard space.  If your work platform has overwritten these Word settings you can reassign keys for them.  Both commands worked for me in the beginning but IS did some sort of upgrade on my work computer which disabled my hard hyphen (Ctrl + Shift + hyphen).  I tried reassigning it back but no go, so I reassigned Ctrl + H.  Works like a charm plus saves me from hitting the extra key.  I know you can ESP words with hard hyphens.  I don't remember if I tried with the hard space or not (oldtimers!!). I'll have to try tomorrow at work because my interest has been piqued.  For the hyphen, I highlight the words with the hard hyphen, hit Crtl + Ctrl for the ESP box to come up, and then give it a short.  I'm going to try this with the hard space tomorrow to see if it works. 


Why is it that you think being an IC makes - sm
you a better transcriber than anyone else on this board? It isn't WHO you work for that makes you worth more than pocket-change, it's how WELL you work.
If she indeed makes anywhere near that, (sm)
it would have to be pulling up multiple-page templates, and typing in the patient's name, over and over and over. Not straight dictation on so many different docs and hospitals that there's no hope of having templates for them.
Okay, when I do that, it makes
the whole thing (cm2) superscript. What am I doing wrong?
Makes you want to
Makes you want to barf in your hand - Ha!


What makes you think we pay OS MTs more?

OS = offshore


Makes me want to cry!

You know, people........ it just makes me want to cry out loud!  I am getting more angry as we speak.. you have all heard from me before about this business, but I'm going to be VERY frank and spill my guts right here in front of you and the whole MT world, hoping that someone who is in the right position will read it and HAVE THE GUTS to make a stance. (Can you say "hospital board of directors?") This is something that AAMT (or whatever the daylights they are now) should be doing for us. It's about time these "high and mighty" doctors listen up!


We are a family of hard-working people who practically have to become doctors just to transcribe these stinking reports.  I don't know about all of you, but I DON'T MAKE A DOCTORS' SALARY! I truly believe that all of you as well as myself try every day like the devil to do the very best we can to participate in patient care and earn a decent living, but as I have said a million times if not more, it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE and at this time, there ARE NO ANSWERS TO ALL THIS CHAOS.... 


Actually, I take that back... there are a couple answers..We are all reprimanded for the incompetence of the doctors.  THEY ARE NOT GODS as they would like to believe they are. They put on and take off their pants just like we do and when the he _ _ are they going to take some responsibility?  I, for one, am NOT afraid of them and if I had the chance to do it over again working "in-house", I would have the guts to tell them how bad they are right down to their burping, farting, yawning, chewing, mumbling, whispering, non-English speaking two-sided faces.  Let us not forget the 50 second operative note that should have been dictated clearly in 10 minutes.  Yes, they're busy, but the bottom line on this issue is that they don't want to do a surgery and BE TOLD to go and tell someone about it, so they dictate like their hair is on FIRE. IT JUST MAKES ME SICK.  It's part of THEIR JOB.  If they don't do a good job, how the sh _ _ do they expect us to do a good job!


Let us not forget QA.... We are punished and yelled at for leaving blanks........DUH! and I just hate the thought of a QA person (whose quality of work I don't even know), making corrections to my work - and don't tell me that at times, they are guessing... AND WHOSE NAME IS ON THE REPORT - OURS !!!!!!!!!!  In the end, if there was a lawsuit, we'd most likely be the ones to have to answer to THEIR blunders.  I would rather make my own mistakes and have to answer for them than have one or two opinionated QA people telling me what I did wrong... one telling you one way to do something and another telling you a different way.  I say, "leave the stinking blanks and let these JERKS" remember whose country they are living in.


BOTTOM LINE.......... Make the doctors more responsible... after all, they want to get paid and couldn't without us.  I say, "stand up and be heard", tell them to get with the program and most of all, SPEAK DISTINCT AND PROPER ENGLISH!!  THIS IS AMERICA, NOT PAKISTAN.


Please don't get me wrong.  I love what I do and for the right dictating physician (s), it is a gratifying experience.  Something has GOT to change. Thanks for listening... we're all in it together.  We need some mercy...   it's a thankless job  and   !


Someone makes those new now...sm
www.pckeyboard.com its the customizer 101, listed in the unicomp keyboard section. They are $70, but they make them in USB and have a very good warranty.

I don't work there or anything, I just use them.
Wow, really makes you wonder what they - sm
were charging, a dollar a line????
Makes you want to say to such a doc
I don't know. You tell me ... what's a rectalectomy?

I would so love to type the way they actually dictate. I think MTSOs should provide each dictator with a sample of this every few months or so (just as an extra sample) to remind them they really should be more careful.

Even just the way they run sentences together and say is and has exactly the same. Those 2 little things alone are a hassle for us and could be so easily a nonissue.

Okay, I guess I'm going down a different road here. Sorry. :)
Thank you so much. That makes me feel better.
Here's hoping things go smoothly. :)
we are definitely overpopulated and that makes
I live about three blocks from my school, it takes almost a half hour to get there with the traffic, not only in the school to park, but getting backed up and having to sit through two or three traffic lights due to the rush hour.  Rush hour is all day and night here.  Hate it.
what makes you think it will affect us?

What, CEO makes 350,000/year??
that is almost sickening...and what is worse, we are in this mindset that we are supposed to by happy for them, that they should not have to 'share it' with us, and we should be just happy to have jobs and shut up!

I started to hear that in the hospital setting, about 10 years ago, 'just be lucky to have a job.' I used to think back then, well, why, what if I did not have a job...I would be on social services or unemployment, and certainly the government does not want that?! we are supposed to work, right? Life, liberty, pursuit of happiness and all that, or was that all lies?

I know we are competing globally now for work, but does that mean we have to work for nothing now...so even though we have the capability of perhaps fighting for our jobs, we should just let them go, lie down and give up, because that is progress? well, what is the next thing that will be taken? just lie down and let that happen, too? when is it okay to stand up for yourself?

perhaps service jobs (as what will probably be the only jobs left soon) should start paying $15-20/hour.

things are obviously changing, I understand that, but we need to also have a balance. you can not have rich and poor, because that will only lead to some kind of a revolution. people are already getting frustrated, less money in the pocket, etc.

I see these real estate developments go up all over, and more and more, the old for sale signs pop up after about a year as people move in, probably lose their jobs, and then have to move out.
What makes me sick is all of you big
digusting MTs trying to make people see things your way and if people don't, you jump all over them. So, here is a dose of your own medicine. If you don't like it, don't read my posts! See ya!
What makes you think she is a moron?

She's not the only one who makes that mistake....
I had a medical records director 20+ years ago mark on our evaluation under "skill level", that out MT job needed little skill for the job. I refused to sign the evaluation and told her she should be ashamed of herself. Can you believe it? And she had an ART just like me...go figure!
