Inside comes from Stedman's online

In Reply to: Yes it IS hyphenated, drug-eluting stent... - compound modifier....

This is regarding the Taxus. As long as I remember, it has never been spelled any other way other than below.

paclitaxel drug-eluting coronary stent; allows treatment of a variety of patient and lesion types; can mold to the natural contours of the vessel wall; uses Translute Polymer, a proprietary polymer carrier technology, to control drug release

    Andrews School or M-TEC online are excellent courses. See inside.
    If you complete one of those courses, you should have no trouble finding a job working from home. They are a bit more expensive than some of the other courses, but MANY companies will waive their 2 years' experience requirement for grads of those two schools. Do not be suckered in by cheaper schools, MT companies know which schools supply good training and which ones don't.
    Bare Minerals IS available at ULTA online,Sephora online...(sm)

    ...and you don't have to sign up for a makeup "club," or anything. I totally agree with you that this makeup is great for all the basic purposes (coverage, lasting), but their slogan is "Makeup so healthy you can sleep in it." There is a delay in time between when you can apply your powder after moisturizer, but it is really worth it.


    To go with your powder I recommend the "pump brush" offered at some of the cosmetic online stores. You fill the handle with your powder mixture (I mix two different powders, changing it up or down according to how much sun I've been getting) and the pump brush will distribute some to the bristles, tap and have at it! This is great for carrying it with you to minimize the loss into the lining of your handbag!


    I cannot recommend Bare Minerals enough. I used to be a MAC convert, and have tried everything from Chanel to Maybelline--this product does not disappoint.


    Thanks...so much for Stedmans nm

    I should have googled it.  Thanks again.


    Stedmans
    in Word click on Tools when you fully expand this option it may list Stedmans here if not then Click Tools then options and spelling and grammar and Stedmans should be listed under your custom dictionary.

    Feel free to email if you need more assistance.
    Stedmans's
    hi. Stedman's does run in the background. as long as your word dictionary is set to CUSTOM.DIC, it will be using it. There may be a folder in program files, and that is a good thing, in case you want to uninstall it. If you check your "add and remove programs" it may be listed in there, as well. as long as your medical words are not being underlined in red, you are fine.
    I use Stedmans and
    it works fine with Vista

    Stedmans CMT
    Has anyone here purchased the Stedmans CD to ready for the CMT exam.  I am thinking about purchasing and was looking for some feedback about that one or any others some of you have tried and found that worked for you.  I understand the exam is very difficult and I really want to take it and pass it for that matter LOL.  Any help and guidance is much appreciated.
    about stedmans
    Hello, I just went to Word 2007, which is very helpful but now I have no Stedman's. My Stedman's is very old. I was wondering if anyone knows where to get Stedman's O7 or 08 cheaper than 99.00.

    Thanks so much. Have a wonderful holiday.

    wp and stedmans
    Go into your wordperfect and open the spellchecker. There should be a tab for user dictionaries. Open that and insert new dictionary. There should be 3 with the stedmans title. Use all three
    stedmans or you can
    or you can just run the disc again and download it into your wordperfect. It should ask you what program you want to put it in
    stedmans
    Yeah, I know, that's kinda what I'm thinking too. It's the only one I've used in all of my MT career, so kind of afraid to purchase something else. Thanks!
    How did you get Stedmans SpellChecker to
    Did you have to change some settings somewhere?  Please give me the details because when I try to install it it just quits the install process.  Thanks so much
    Please help - Stedmans/WP 5.1 question...
    I recently switched to a new computer (Windows XP) and for some reason I cannot get my Stedmans spellchecker to work.  I use WP 5.1 dos and my Stedmans is version 6 for dos.  In WP location of files, it shows Stedmans correctly but when I run spell check, some really ancient version shows up.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

    Its so much easier just to type in what your looking for!  I must have 20 books just sitting on my shelf!
    Don't buy Stedmans Path/Lab CD!
    I'm SO mad at Stedman's! I finally decided to go electronic and bought a med/surg equip CD and a path/lab CD. No problems with the former, but the latter will not work and disables MS Word! And I'm not the only one, as you can Google it on the internet and others are having the same problems. Somehow it interacts wrongly with different virus/spam protectors and will start throwing pages and pages of licensing cleanup alerts into your task manager, disabling your word processing. I called tech support last Friday and they said they'd get back to me. I called them back Tuesday and they said they still hadn't figured it out. I called them today, still nothing, so I got mad and returned the stupid CD for the book. Six days of "trying to figure it out"???? He had said before they could install an unlicensed copy since the licensing was the problem, but then days later said they couldn't figure it out.

    They also send you an invoice saying your payment is due by X date (with the return envelope and the space to fill in how much you are paying of the total) when you've already paid by credit card. They also charged almost $20 shipping for 4 CDs that weigh a few ounces. I'm NOT happy!
    Meditech and Stedmans
    Does anyone use Meditech and Stedmans Medical/Pharmaceutical Spellchecker together?  I just purchased Stedmans to use while typing in Meditech and now someone told me it would not work? I have not tried it yet though.   I will keep Stedmans though to use in Word so no big money loss.
    cmt reference stedmans sm
    My main reason for wanting to purchase the Stedmans course is to get the feel of the test itself.  This way I am not going in totally blind as to how the test is done.  I have read the description online, but would really like to have an actual pre-type test to give me a feel for the platform.  That is really what I am most worried about.  That and grammar.  I have a great accuracy rating, I am just worried about not passing and want to be as prepared as I can be.  With that being said is the person out there who was offering the book for sale.  I would like to know how much you would like for it.  Thanks. 
    Need help with Stedmans speller

    My Stedmans keeps not loading or something.  It was working fine when I quit work Friday night.  Then yesterday it would not work.  I finally did a system restore and it worked after that fine.  Then today, same thing, it will not work. 


    Can someone help me out with any suggestions?

    not sure if this is right place, but HELPPPPP......


    when I am working in word97 or any word I guess, under tools do I have the Stedman dictionary checked or the custom dictionary checked.  How do I know which should be done?

    Strange--I JUST got an email from Stedmans--sm
    stating the 2007 version was out and offering a reduced rate until the end of Febr. that is so funny that it arrived just now when I was reading these posts.

    wow. I just got a Stedmans book for 1.79 on Amazon.
    Brand new!  I never thought to look on there for a book!
    Using Stedmans spellchecker with Meditech

    Does anyone know if a Stedman's Medical/Pharmaceutical spellchecker works with Meditech program?


    I currently use PCShorthand with it but mine does not recognize drug names.  I was thinking of buying Stedman's Spellchecker but how does this one work with Meditech.  I friend bought Stedmans and loves it so I was thinking of doing thet same but my friend is typing in Word and not Meditech. 


    Does anyone know where a person could get a tutorial on Meditech as Help Button on the Meditech Help section when I am working is kinda of confusion.  This is what I get working as a remote IC person.  Trying to learn this system a little better.


     


     Thanks Pauline


     


    Stedmans Ortho book shows
    both on pagge 455, plantar flexion and then plantarflexion injury, plantarflexion-inversion test. Maybe it is supposed to be by context ????
    Does anyone know how to convert the Stedmans word list to
    If so please share how.  Thank you! 
    EXText and Stedmans 2006 spellchecker?
    Anybody know if they are compatible or if there are any glitches I should be aware of before I plunk down the dough? Thanks!
    I wouldn't hold Stedmans accountable for
    not being able to open zip files.  Do you have a zip program on your computer?  If so, just use it to unzip the files.  WinZip can be downloaded for an initial free trial.  When you unzip it, save the .exe file to the Stedmans folder, then click "run" if prompted.  If not prompted to run, click your start button, click run, and browse for the Stedmans folder and select its .exe file to run.  It should then begin to install and you should follow the prompts of questions it will ask you.
    Always Dorlands' first and foremost. Stedmans is a poor second.

    Emdat/Incribe with Word/Stedmans
    I would like to know if anyone who types in this program is able to use the Microsoft Word option and Stedman's Spellcheck.  That is, without copying and pasting. 
    Stedmans has it with NO hyphen; that's how I've been typing for years. NM

    We were not 'allowed' to load anything to their system, inclg Stedmans
    nm
    Stedmans for word reference, ADI or Quick Look for drugs.
    I also like Tessier's surgical word book by Saunders and I'm pretty sure I have a Vera Pyle or two around here a well.
    My Stedmans spellcheck disappeared with SP 2 for Office 2003!

    An update from Microsoft of SP 2 for Office 2003, a reboot and now when I open Word my Stedmans spellcheck doesn't work.   I tried to reload it and that doesn't work, either.   Anyone else have this happen?  I looked and it's in "Proof" for dictionaries as LEXB4SP, but it's not loading up and replacing the Word spellcheck.   Now what do I do?  


     


    I went to desktop icon for both DRUG BOOK and STEDMANS. Clicked

    How old are your drug book and stedman's?  (I bought mine about 6 years ago now).  I hate to not be able to use them because I have added so much to them through the years.  ugh.

    Stedmans Med & Surgical Equip words and Tessiers Surgical Word Book (3rd Ed). I'd be lost
    without them.
    Updating surgical references - new Stedmans Word Book, Tessier Surgery Book or others - best one in
    nm
    I would buy new a Dorland's Medical Dictionary, Stedmans Medical and Surgical Equipment...SM

    and Tessier's The Surgical Word Book, 3rd edition.  Books you could buy used I would say would be Stedman's Pathology and Lab Medicine and Cardiology/Pulmonary word book.  These are all the books I use the most during my day.  You could buy other speciality word books as you need them and could probably go used with those.


    I wouldn't bother with buying a drug book, new editions come out every year and I just stick to the FDA website and RXList as my drug references.


    Also FYI, not a book, but I use my Stedman's Electronic Medical Dictationary a lot.  It's easier to open the program than it is to pick up a huge 30-pound dictionary.


    Everytime you re-load Word you need to re-load Stedmans medical spellchecker.

    I have to contain myself for now, but I have a H*LL of an online SM

    dating story - the stuff they make movies out of. I'm not kidding, either. I will be able to tell it soon, hopefully.


    For what it's worth, I have found the most astounding dating site. Totally FREE. The best part of it is that there are forums there. http://www.plentyoffish.com


    I buy online at...

    Old Navy is one of my favorites.  Their stores are so small that they never have my size in stock anyway.  If you order from their website, the shipping is only $5 no matter how much you buy.  I also buy and sell a lot on ebay and half.com.  At Christmas time, I buy from Toys R Us online.  They usually have free shipping if your bill is over $50, and you can get the sale price.  I missed it yesterday.  I didn't realize that I could have purchased the 4-hour deals from Toys R Us on their website.  Oh well, maybe next year.


    and I never used AOL online..sm

    but  was a big investor back just before 2001 and I sold lots of shares when AOL was at 30....it subsequently went down to 9 or 11 and then was not on the market for a long time....
