Ctrl Z may be quicker than going to the Edit menu. It reverts back to what you typed.

Yes, she'll be back unfortunately...
Otherwise she wouldn't have made such a big fuss about saying she was leaving...lol. If she was leaving, she could have just gone away...didn't have to tell us all, although it's nice to know she's gone. For now.
I'm sure that she'll be right back in line....sm

at the shelters getting the free meals, handouts and applying for additional government aide.


When they announced they were giving out these debit cards I knew immediately that it would be misused by people.  There's nothing to stop them from taking the cards, putting them into an ATM and getting cash, which some people will then  buy illegal drugs and alcohol with. 


I don't mind handing out money who can prove they had a place to live prior to the disaster but I do have a problem with handing out wads of cash to the people that were homeless and not trying to seek employment before the storm - those folks have basically hit the social lottery as they've now been given free transportation, meals, shelter and tons of other stuff just because they were there. 


One of my relatives who was in Hurricaine Andrew saw this same type of abuse going on in Miami after that storm.  He saw people walking around with the wads of cash the federal government gave them and blowing it on either stupid purchases or on partying, then turn around and file for a loan that they didn't intend to pay back to continue misusing the money. 


Thank you for responding. I'll get back to you. sm
Not sure what I want. I'm thinking of leaving MT and I feel that I have good qualifications for other types of transcription.
Thank you! Guess I'll have to go back...
and try again!
Happy New Year back at you! Have fun! We'll
be fine, won't we, folks?  Have a good time!
No, don't! This is fun! If you go away, I'll be too tempted to go back up and read those UGLY
posts. I just know that then I will be rather more than irritated! If I read them...I can tell they're horrible...But if we're here, talking about warm milk, and who is who, and why is why, then none of us will have to go back UP and read those...other posts!!
Just say it's not going to work out, quit, and send the stuff back. Not like you'll be using t

Instead of Ctrl+Ctrl+Insert, try
Ctrl+Insert+Insert. See if that works. Mark the word-phrase that you want to insert first. Let me know.

When I broke my ankle, I was just grateful it wasn't the hands. Without our hands we'd be totally screwed.

I broke my right ankle slipping on ice and was lucky to have gloves on because the palm of the glove was totally torn up and my hand was okay.

Good luck and be sure to do your exercises when it is time.
{@KEY Ctrl+B}
nm
she did say Ctrl/S also, which...
searches for a document for a particular patient, then after looking at the document searched for, Ctrl/T would end THAT document w/o saving any changes that may have been made while viewing document...does this make sense?  Perhaps that is why she would use Ctrl/T...
Just CTRL+K sm

then it says "the next key you type" the CTRL+B, your entry, then CTRL+B to remove bolding at then end.  Why use tags?


I think it's Ctrl + J
Works for me.
Try ALT+CTRL+R or ALT+CTRL+P nm
.
Unfortunately, once CTRL CTRL
stops working for me, I'm unable to load any more shortcuts until I go out of the program and go back in. Weird.

At MQ with DQS, you can Ctrl X, but I don't know
nm
Ctrl-S
brings up a screen, and you fill in the field or fields you want to be searched. For instance, if I want to search for reports done by Dr. Smith, I put smith into provider last name and click find(?). Then a list of reports by Dr. Smith will display, and you can choose one to look at. It opens this document up in a separate Extext document than the one you are working on. Then you can copy and paste what you need into document you are working on or just read through it, etc.

You have to remember to close the search document before you close current Extext document because it messes something up which I can't remember right now!
ctrl x
never worked for me. I highlight text, right click, choose cut and then paste where I want it.
I have never used ctrl-T
I click on the little x in the upper right corner to close, not the big red one. This will just close that document and return you to working document. I have never been kicked out using it.

Ctrl-A & ESP

Our physicians list is sortable by specialty (we have a newer version), so it is logical to conclude that if the list is printable it can be done that way.


Good idea about ESP to desktop.  Thanks!


I believe it's ctrl+T and not alt+T

 to enable/disable the expander. 


Did you transfer the Expander from Word or build it from scratch?  Did the expander once work, then quit?   Or is this your very first use of Bayscribe? 


I can hit Esc or use Ctrl/X, too, to stop it. nm

Looks like e + Ctrl + ' (apostrophe). nm

Usng Ctrl I

I have a question about this -- it is disabled where I work.  However, I have been told I can use an ExText feature to go back to any date and see my jobs listed there.  Would this be just as effective as using Ctrl I?  My lines are terribly low too, as well as others with whom I work on this account.  Funny thing is, it has happened a couple of times that I have done a job and then a little while later gotten the exact same job back again as though it was never done.  I check my "list" like they told me to do and it is not there.  I've mentioned this to my supervisor and they don't seem to care.  But the did tell me to check my list every day and let them know if it is wrong.  Is this how they cheat us out of lines????


Got it - Ctrl+Alt+Up Arrow

hit Ctrl/K, hit Backspace, hit Okay

Try ctrl-Z and see if that takes it away.
Meanwhile, i'll research it.  :)
Ctrl+Enter

I mean, ctrl k backspace OK

It'll happen. You'll find your fit.

I have two IC contracts right now. I recently went back to a job I had quit earlier in the year to work for the other company I am still working for.

The newer job has 80% ESLs. I transcribe OP notes primarily and I can fill in other work types as the opportunity arises. I am frustrated with this particular situation. After 6 months, I am making less money and working longer hours. I am past the learning curve and I should be doing better, at least in the number of hours I am spending doing the job. We have run out of work for 24 hrs at a time at least 5 or 6 times since December 1, and in November it was more than that. I have a friend who worked for this company as well and she was having similar difficulties. The only thing that we can figure is that they are shorting us line count some way, because after 6 months at it, it should be easier/faster/more money, but it is less and less every single pay period. It is not a nice thing to accuse a company of doing, but it SEEMS that way to us. I am fed up with being expected to type every single OP note that comes in 24/7 and meeting the 6 hr TAT for them on weekends, evenings, holidays, wee hours of the morning...

I took back a job I held for 2-1/2 yrs. The team leader has changed and this gal thinks that I should be on call 24/7 for whenever she has work. I might have some at 7 a.m., or perhaps not until 6 p.m. or later. I can't plan my personal life and between these two IC situations, I find that I am not eating on a daily basis, not showering on a daily basis and not sleeping more than 3 or 4 hours at a time. I have lost weight and I don't feel very well. I woke up today with a rip roaring head cold (my first in nearly 8 yrs) and it has already moved to bronchitis and I am expecting pneumonia by the weekend because I develop it very easily. I already have deep pain in my back.

Yes, I should call in sick tomorrow, but I really can't take the fallout. The job I took back I am covering for another gal who wanted vacation over the holidays and if I have to call in sick, the team leader will call me and pitch a fit about how this is my responsibility. It IS my responsibility, I did say I would do it, and I will do it, despite being quite ill. In the past, when I worked for this company, they would not allow me to call in sick for a "cold" without a doctor's note. I worked through many illnesses with them and only called in sick when I developed West Nile Fever and while I was sick for over a month, I only called for my last 12 reports one day when I could no longer see the computer screen because my head hurt.

The problem is that yes, many MTs lack work ethic. They don't take their responsibility seriously. This is not a work as you please career, not even for an IC. I can see the MTSO's point of view, I truly can. Like finding experienced, reliable and capable MTs, for the MTs who are these things, finding a company will treat you like a human being is equally difficult. I sit here, feeling lousy and like I am an utter slave labor with no consideration whatsoever. I know that my work needs to be done, but when I am this sick it is better that someone else do it for the sake of the work, for accuracy and for speed of getting it out. I know that I am needed, but to be the MT these companies need me to be, I also need to look after my own health.

I will also mention that when I have asked for vacation, I have been approved for the time, but the MTSO queues up my work and calls me then I am not on the system getting it done. I have told them I had been approved for time off, but the MTSO didn't schedule anyone to cover for me and I am told to get on work, vacation or no, if I want to keep my job.

Thus, I work 24/7/365 and have for years. I work sick, I work when I am in pain (I have an AI disorder), I work exhausted from staying up all night covering for others who are allowed to call in sick and have vacations when I can't have either. I work having no health insurance and not being able to afford the $125 a month to buy some with a high copay so I can see a doctor. I work without breaks for breakfast, lunch or dinner and I sometimes come close to having an accident because if I leave my desk to go to the little girls' room I get nasty calls about where I am at and what I am doing.

Many MTs are mistreated, and I am one of them.

Ctrl+ F and search each page nm

Might have to do Ctrl + K and then Alt + B and your entry, then turn off.

Extext problems in Ctrl-S
Here's my solution.  I had problems with Ctrl-S too for a while and this cleared up my problem.  When I have the split screen, I too make the "Read Only" file the full screen.  I also make the report I am working on full screen.  I Alt-Tab between the two reports to use the Read Only report as long as I need it.  When I am done with it, I then close it out using File>Close.  This leaves Ctrl-S open in the background, by the way.  That way, if I need a different Read Only (View) report by the doctor I am working on, I don't have to input anything again, just do Ctrl-S and it takes me back to the screen where I have reports to choose from for that dictator.  Once I have what I need, at Ctrl-S I can then click on "Close" to get out of Ctrl-S and go back into my current report.  This took care of any problems I had with Extext and Ctrl-S.  You wouldn't believe what the "Help" desk had me going through to try to correct this....uninstalling and installing my Word, also, and doing updates and all kinds of things.  This took care of my problem, which was that after I would use Ctrl-S and left it, from that point on I could never automatically get a report and/or it wouldn't Ctrl-N a report.  Hope this helps, too, although the other poster's soluton works too.  Just thought I'd offer an alternative. 
Ctrl K in order to add items to your sm
expansion (in the "text to type" box), such as bold, underline, enter. Don't forget to use the ctrl K and whatever "function" key you used to turn on the function, to turn it off again. For example, Ctrl K, then Ctrl B turns on the bold function, but it will need to be turned off by the same method after you type "HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS:" in the text to type box when initially creating your expansion.

hth!
