Doesn't this belong on the productivity board?

I would call IT or check productivity board sm
as would be so much more efficient easier to get IT to work correctly than to try to work back words and get autocorrect to work - IT should work with just about anything - not so with autocorrect
This post should be made on the Productivity board. Thread locked.

I need some help on the technical

Technical help please......
I work in Word 2003 and am needing to make headers in some of my reports with the following information (page #, patient name, date and report type).  My problem is that the page number stays the same (#2) for all pages and when I go into change it all pages change.  I know there is something with "sections" and all that, but I'm just not getting it to work.  How can I make a header with the numbers to change from page 2 to page 3 and so on?  Thanks for the help guys!

I'm really lousy in the technical department and I just got a message on my computer that my local C disc space is almost full.  I'm thinking I need to empty my recycle bin, but not sure.  It is quite full, as I type the reports in Word and send through Outlook Express.  Is that what this means?  Any help is greatly appreciated.
No, no technical available. Need to have something set up by sm
late fall. Thanks for the help.
In the technical world
the quality of the parts that comprise one computer is no longer a deciding factor, because they are all designed and manufactured by only a few companies that are world class manufacturers. It's the service that counts. If you get good service (including after sales service) then go for that company. Check, too, the available hardware that are offered in both companies that you are considering. If the local co. has everything that Dell or Gateway has to offer and also give you good service, then go for the local.

I bought mine from Best Buy and gets good service from the pc manufacturer.
I have a question on the technical help
board please ASAP.  TIA
MS word technical help
I type on ExText using MS word 97, and starting yesterday the spellchecker keeps picking up the words "as" and "is" as misspelled words. I even checked MS Word outside of the ExText forum, and it still picks out these 2 words. I keep hitting "add" to add the words so they will not keep coming up, but every time I start a new document, back it comes. Anyone with any ideas on how to permanently add these to my spellchecker so I don't have to keep dealing with this? thanks!
I have a technical question
I'm thinking about getting a new computer, and I think I recall seeing that a lot of companies' platforms aren't compatible with Windows Vista. Is this true, and if so, what do you do in that case. Cause it's not like you can buy a new computer with an old Windows system on. What do you do in this case?
that would be technical - normally I can spell!

technical question
Try core FTP lite.  I have used it and it is pretty easy once you get it configured.  Just drag and drop files from the left side of the screen tothe right
You are welcome. It is my best resource for any support or technical help.

I have a technical question. On my toolbar when
I click on any of the categories (File, Edit, View, Tools or Help), instead of getting my dropdown menu I get a trasparent square.  If I drage my mouse down, then the titles appear but you can see the screen under them.  The same thing happens on Outlook Express.  (I have Windows XP).  The only one that shows the regular dropdown menus is Favorites.  This just started today.  Has anyone had a similar thing happen or know what to do about it?  Thanks.
Got a technical question, not MT related

I have a priceless message, left by my son, on my digital phone/answering machine, and am wondering if anyone here would know how I can transfer it to the computer so I can share it (and delete it from the phone).


TIA for ideas/solutions!


Long ops are the best! I love the technical
stuff!  My favorite is cardiac surgery.  Consults are good, too.  I really don't care for discharge summaries or H&Ps, short or long.  But always glad to just to have any work these days!
What are the technical specs on your notebook (sm)
Would like more info on the specifics such as the brand, RAM, processor speed.
Wow to Technical Support! Thanks soooo much! ....
for your extensive answer!
I'll start with cleaning up my mouse and working up from there if this does not work.
I'll let you know.
There are still very kind, knowledgable, helpful and generous people in this world, THANKS !
Technical help, please- buffer overload?
Going along today and computer decided to show me a buffer overload, not able to do anything at all, said something overloaded. Anyone know what this means and how to get rid of it? I used to have Dell, oh how I miss and was told you could not have a computer made by Dell because of Vista and cannot use Vista on my platform. I need assistance, anyone??
Please use Word and Technical boards appropriately. (NM)

I fired my ISP today because of non-US technical support....

To give a brief summary, I developed technical problems after my ISP decided to do some upgrades 2 weeks ago.  The problems resulted in my getting kicked off line every few minutes.  Upon contacting technical support I found myself consistently running into people that had no English comprehension skills and their responses had nothing to do with my problem or how to fix it.   I found another ISP that would provide the services I needed and signed up with them 3 days ago, then called my main one today and told them they were fired because of their non-US based labor who couldn't help anyone.  The lady I spoke with apologized and said this was an experiment they were doing with outsourcing technical support, but I told her that their experiment cost them a customer who had been with them for almost 4 years. 


I've fired off e-mails to everyone in management that I could get ahold of telling them exactly why they were fired, and sharing the idiotic responses I received on my technical assistance requests. 


I agree - charge for your technical expertise
I worked a hospital account for an MTSO that liked my work so well that they asked the MTSO to use my templates and daily logs for all of the work types asked the MTSO to give them to all the other MTs on the account, present and future. I did not know they had pirated my logs and templates until after I received a promotion to work in the office. I was livid! It took years to perfect those templates and logs. They were created based on my knowledge of what Joint Commission liked in audits. They did NOT get the macros or instructions on how to move around the documents (lots of hidden codes in those logs/templates).

I had negotiated a relocation fee of a few thousand dollars to move to their area to work in the office. I didn't feel badly about not paying it back when I left 6 months later after discovering lots of things like that once I started working in house.

You did the work. If he wants them and if you want him to have them, decide on a fair price, then add 15% :)


Must be a highly technical medical word as

"Skedaddle." A highly technical term.
" ... but when she feels the urge, she really needs to skedaddle."

I haven't heard that word in YEARS--and that's probably the first time in 37 years I've gotten it in medical dictation!

I purchased Shorthand and Jon Knowles program. I have about 500 shorthand entries. During downtime, I add more. I have set hours. I get up like I am going out to work. Shower, put on m/up, comb hair, etc. Make coffee/cereal, and do a few household chores before I sign in at 8:30. I do not move until I have done 25 reports. Take a 15 break, take out some for lunch, type 25 more reports. Eat lunch while I am watching a few mins. of Y/Restless. Look at email..Look at local paper online. Email buddy in Texas. On Mondays, take a few minutes to discuss D/Housewives. Type 20 more rports. Watch 15 minutes of Passions. And for the afternoon stretch, I type until I have about 80-90 reports. If my baby stays with my sister, I will type until I have 100-120 reports. During school year, I might type straight through until I have 40 reports. You just have to stay focus. A few days a month, I take an hour lunch away from home to be around grown people. I have been doing this 7 years and gross about 40,000 yr b/c I also do taxes. You have to stay focuses. I plan on making about 52,000 this year. In between I wash a load of clothes, iron, etc....plan meals. Just stay focused. I get depressed if I have a week paycheck less than a grand.
