Sorry have to vent. Why is it doctors are completely incapable of using the pause button! I mean honestly and I quote. "Hold on, hold on just hold on one second" followed by mumbling to herself. "hold on for computer change, hold on for computer change, (insert 4-letter expletive beginning with the letter s) radiology isn't on this computer, hold on, hold on" and then switches sections entirely. And last but not least, "hold on I'll get you the length of time of dosage of the Vantin, started on 04/12/2008, 13, 14, 15 (insert same expletiive), 13, 14, 15,16, so for a total of 6 does of the Vantin." Bear in mind I'm also having to put up with a doctor who sounds like Fran Drescher with a head cold!!!! This doctor always does this I mean honestly I have better things to do with my time (like make money) then have a doctor have the audacity to tell me to hold on one second and listen to them curse!! Sorry had to get that off my chest.

MEN o pause
Oh dear, I really feel for you to have a house full of PMS'rs. My best bud and her daughter cycle at the same time!
I went into early menopause @38! My only symptom was horrible hot flashes..I mean my forehead looked like a fountain at times. Happened once in docs office, he tested for thryroid and all kind of things and came back the big M. Your doc can do an FSH level on you to tell where your at and what will work for you. I got started on HRT, slapped the patch on my butt and felt 100% better. Not for everyone, but sometimes you have to outweigh your quality of life (or lack of).
Dr. Phil's wife Robin had a great segment on treating the symptoms..may be on his web site but had some great ideas..sorry can't remember cause I'm batteling 3 teens myself at the moment...for that issue...run away from home for a night...worked wonders last month for me
Just pause to think about the logistics...
Send someone where? To how many places? Just stand there on the street corner with your box full of $2000 debit cards and say come and get it? That they could even get something of this accomplished to have them in the mail and to these people in 14 days is remarkable. I can't even imagine the chaos of trying to figure out who to hand these $2000 debit cards to without an organized process.
This was posted right here on this board from someone with relatives in San Antonio, TX,..."they have evacuees housed in shopping malls and old A&P grocery stores.
My family's clothing donations were turned down. Evacuees told them they only want money and ready for this....HAIR PRODUCTS!!! "
And this comes from someone whose husband is a member of the Houston Fire Department...
"Well...
I feel sorry for these people - they have lost everything - they have nothing. I blame their own government at least a bit for not evacuating the ones that were too poor or had no way to evacuate.
That being said, it isn't going as well here as the media makes it out to be. Anthony has been down the to the Astrodome as required by the Fire Department, and I went down on Saturday with a friend of mine.
The Astrodome holds around 50,000 people - and there aren't that many evacuees down there. There are bathroom facilities, but these people are squatting on the streets, parking lots, and lawns of places down around the astrodome and leaving behind urine and fecal matter. They are throwing trash wherever they are when they finish with it, and quite a few act like we "owe" them something. I can't tell you how many people were bitching about the MRE's that they were being served.
As high as gas prices are, I will go out of my way not to have to drive by the Astrodome (my RE's office is about 1 mile from the dome). When you stop at a stop light they come up to your car and beg - and knock on the windows. There have even been reports of some jumping in the backs of pickups and even scratching cars and trucks with knives, if you don't give them money.
I know that there are some good people out there, but there are a lot of bad ones too. There are some that were appreciative of the baby formula (breastfeeders - please don't jump on me here) and diapers and coloring books that we were handing out - and some that were bitching about the brand of diapers, the fact that we were only authorized to give out one can of formula per child and that we didn't have a certain kind of bottles. I even had people that refused to take gift cards from Grocery Stores - wanting money instead.
Last night, one of the evacuees was able to score some alcohol somewhere, got drunk and carjacked a car and ran into several parked cars - the police were able to pull him over after a 15 minute chase.
And I can't get over the smell of raw sewage in the area of town that most of the evacuees are housed. The plumbing in the toilets are working just fine - but they aren't using it. They are trashing the place.
I can't imagine what it must be like for them, having nothing but the clothes on their backs - but I think I would be more appreciative of whatever someone could do for me, instead of griping about what kind of bottles they were giving me to feed my kids with, and that the MRE's were cold.
I really have mixed emotions about the whole thing. I feel sorry for the people who couldn't leave, and got stuck in the chaos. I don't have as much sympathy for the ones who could have left, but didn't want to.
I am sure I sound like a cold, callous, b****, but I was absolutely amazed at the attitude of most of the evacuees that I was in contact with on Saturday."
A positive pause...please sm
Just wanted to share a link with anyone who could use a little positivity today...it's truly worth it

My menu says #2 is pause...
I have only been using a C-phone for a week and haven't even tried all the menu options, including this one! But that's what my menu says. If you need more info you can e-mail me. Good luck!
#2 on keypad is pause.....
just learning myself!

Click Preferences box, put the Pause and Keystrokes at
s
Alt + Shift will toggle the esp off for a quick pause in expanding...
Using the example given were pt expands to prothrombin time but you want to keep it as PT, you would type PT and then hit the Alt + Shift key combination, continue typing, no need to hit the key combo after PT because it's a "one-stop" fix. Hope this helps :-)
Click on the Preferences icon, last one, and change Pause
s
Preferences, Operations, change Pause to 0 seconds

Did not know about the button at the top
My eyes usually do not go up there. I reported it too.
YUCK, YIKE. He or she is probably too cheap to put an ad in the paper.
Is there an OKAY button there?
I was thinking there was something you needed to do to verify changing the volume, speed, etc., before you closed that box but I can't remember for sure.

Autosum button
Is the autosum function part of Word?
Where is the JUMP TO button?
I no longer have the boards on the left either, and have tried all of the fixes suggested by MTStars. I did see a JUMP TO feature when I checked out a message posted on one of the state boards a couple of days ago, but it only allowed for jumping to another state. Would really like to be able to use this feature. TIA for any help!
Use the Load button.
Find the Load button in the toolbar, navigate to where the file is saved and load it into Express Scribe.
hit the "view" button

Go to your "Start" button
on left bottom corner of screen > Open Menu for Programs > Shortcuts will be there to open the dictionaries.
There is a Print Screen Button..
at the top line of your keyboard. Press it and then go to your Windows paint and > Edit > Paste it there.
I wish we had a big button we could press that went BZZZZZZTT!!

Do a Search from the "Start" button. sm
Do a search from the Start button. Click search, type in a phrase or name that is in your template, click on search documents or entire database. There is where to find it. You will see the search in progress and on the right-hand side, the files with that name or containing part of whatever you typed in, will be there.
I have a search button on my keyboard--sm
that will open the search task window without having to go through the desktop program. there is another way to access it with key functions, but I am not sure what exactly that is, as I have only found that by accident and I was not particularly watching what key codes I had put in. Perhaps someone else knows that. and perhaps you can assign a key combination to open that for you on your keyboard. sorry I couldn't be much more help.
on the toolbar, next to the Bold button
There should be a little box with a number in it and a little black arrow. If you click on the arrow, it will bring up a bunch of font sizes. I would pick 12 as it is a standard size for printing. Hope that helps.
there is a report message button .....
Just FYI from me, just another poster...
when you feel like reporting a post, and you are reading their post - at the almost top right is a button that says REPORT MESSAGE. This way, you merely report that particular message without having to post to the administrators/moderators here. I've been posting here for 4 years now....and they added that button a couple of years ago. You see the button when you are INSIDE someone's post reading it....
Just trying to help....have a GREAT day!!!
You are hitting the Ctl button by accident..sm
happens to me too, until I figured out what I was doing.
what about the Report Message button..NM
Click the More button on the colors tab so you can
further customize the color in the right window.
Submit/save button
Hello out there all you knowledgable techie MTs.
My submit/save button is not working and I need any (easy) suggestions!
All suggestions appreciated as I am at a loss, having tried everything I know.
Thanks very much!
built in shelves, cute as a button!
Love it plus it is small with a built-in desk too!
Oops. Hit the send button too quickly.
How long before the person asking if you "want flies with that" will be from another country?
I can also understand why someone would move to another country to work because of economic reasons. We're approaching a time where the cost of a gallon of gas may be higher than the hourly minimum wage. 
Oops...thought I hit the reply button on the
original post.
Foot pedal keyboard button?
I have had trouble with my feet while working the foot pedal. One of the services I worked for had a button attached to their keyboard where they could use that to start and stop the dictation, instead of the footpedal. I know theirs was proprietary, and I couldn't get one from them, but I just wondered if there was something like that out there that could be purchased? Has anybody else heard of this.
Thanks MTStars for JUMP TO radio button! sm
Much appreciated!!!! Now we can just jump from board to board.

I held down the clear button and the screen
cleared, but the program button will not work still...no buttons do. Maybe in another day it will dry out, but I need to work today. :(
Thank you for the help though!
Is the mute button on your keyboard engaged?
You can tell if the volume is on mute by right clicking on the little volume icon at the bottom right hand of your screen, next to where the time is displayed. Click on "Open Volume Control" and make sure nothing is checked off in the little "mute" boxes. That's where I'd start first anyway...not that I have any first-hand experience in that particular matter 
electronically sign - just click the button

Okay, there's the problem-view button is not highlighted
am I locked out of it or something. I don't have the view option to click on???
hit insert button before filling in fields.
see if that works for you. You will need enough space in between or you will type over the next field.
you also can do columns but I am not good at those; hopefully someone else will come along with info on that.
MS Office Button is top lt hand corner
when you are in Word. I actually added the button for my tool bar across the top of Word, as I like 2007 too look similar to 2003 Word. So, now I have the button for auto correct as an easy access.
if pressing the mute button doesn't sm
work are you sure it hasn't been hit by lightening? I was told by the repair guy that when you get done using the C-phone you should always unplug it from the phone jack. These things get hit very easily and sometimes you don't even realize it until you go to use it. I am testimony to that as I have fried three of them!!!!!!!!
Dang, I didn't know there was one with a "zoom" button (sm)
now I have to have one of those!
