Well - no. Shift arrow down will highlight my entire line and then delete.
Don't know what you are talking about - I never use F8 in Word.
I don't use the mouse. I use Cntl+end key to highlight a sentence.Shift and the arrow key will do
x
Shift end will highlight the line, but you need F8, then hit period key to highlight full sentence,
You can use F8 and hit any letter or punctuation mark you want to go to. Hit the escape key to turn off F8.
Shift and arrow keys only highlight single characters.
Try ctrl+shift+left arrow to highlight the last word
then Alt + J to open AutoCorrect, type your Replace word, and tab to OK and hit the Enter key.
Make sure you don't have any extra spaces when you highlight.
Hold down Ctrl and Shift and use right arrow to highlight one word at a time. sm
You can highlight noncontiguous words by holding down on Ctrl and selecting different words.
In Word you can use shift - end to highlight to
x
You can highlight the entire list and use the convert text to table option in Word. You can highligh
You'll want to convert with 4 columns because you have a paragraph between each address. That paragraph will wind up in the 4th column. When you're done, you can highlight that column and delete it.
If MS Word, you don't need to highlight first. Shift+F3 cycles through
change case even if you've already hit the spacebar.
what is the shortcut to take out an entire sentence? sm
I know ctrl backspace takes out one word at a time, what is the key to take out a sentene at a time? I have an MD is is just awful about changing his mind. Thanks in advance!!!!
Hey! Why did they delete the entire comedy folder from this site?
???
One *does* need to use the Shift key to highlight words as Shelly asked. sm
Ctrl and the right arrow key goes to the next word *without* highlighting. You might want to read Shelly's original post again.
Could you post the entire sentence? Is "parogy material" something used in the procedure or
something encountered during the procedure?
f8 is called extend mode. I meant Shift right and left arrows only highlight characters. sm
You can find more help about extend mode in Word's help file.
CTL X logs you out, use shift+delete for cut function

My back and legs hurt my entire shift ! n/m

Delete your voice files at the end of your shift or before you start work again. No

Just hit Alt+Shift+left arrow on line 1 and it will go to the left margin. Otherwise,
you need to use a numbered list style to do it every time. Each version is different, but you may already have a numbered list style in yours that stays at the left margin. Just assign a keyboard shortcut to that style.
Green back arrow/forward arrow on toolbar. nm
.
highlight the first word you want, hold the Ctrl key down, and highlight the next, etc. nm

Turn off puter, wait a min, turn on with delete key pressed down, then hit delete key NUMEROUS times
dd
Arrow
What does the arrow mean in front of a post?
You probably hit Contol-Alt-down arrow. nm
x
control alt up arrow
Hopefully should get you there. If not, keeping doing the control alt with the arrows and eventually it will turn the correct way. If it goes upside down, then do the control alt up arrow.
Got it - Ctrl+Alt+Up Arrow

I also do VR but the arrow keys?
Maybe I am doing wrong but I do not use the arrow keys hardly at all. Why are you using these, are you supposed to? I think escription tells you not to use the mouse, well I hate to tell them but never have given that up. They say use hot keys, never have. Just too set in my ways to start at this late date. I never have any problems with arms, shoulders, on and on.
Arrow Keys
I use Dictaphone EXT and they told me not to use the mouse but to use the arrow keys to move around in the document.
Try hitting CONTROL and DOWN ARROW?NM
NM
or control and left or right arrow.
I did that several times!
brain freeze. > what does this arrow mean? greater than? less than?
If in MS Word, sometimes hitting the "Undo" arrow (sm)
above can make something you didn't want go away. I've also discovered that if you are working online, like in email for example, hitting "Control" and the "Z" key at the same time works just like "undo". It's especially helpful for when you've just typed a long email, are just about to sign off, and you hit the wrong key and it DISAPPEARS! If you immediately STOP, don't touch anything else, and then hit "Control-Z", if you're online it SHOULD come back! :)
Extext highlight
It sounds like you might have toggled off your select function. Press your shift bar and then try to select with your mouse to see if that works.
You can also highlight the text you want
to change and hit Control K - same thing is something is already in all caps and you want to change it to either just an initial cap or to all lower case. It works like a toggle switch.
can't highlight text in ExText
Hi all. Today just started an acct that uses ExText/TransNet. I already have Word 2000 on my machine. (Their version of ExText says in 'about' that it is also 2000) When I get in a chart in ExText, I can't use my mouse anywhere on the document or even the vertical scroll bar to the right. I *can* use it on any of the menu items across the horizontal toolbar at the top of the document but CANNOT select bits of text to highlight and move around or copy/paste or whatever. Anyone else hear of this happening? I've seen some other posts here talking about versions of Word (2003?) being incompatible with ExText but I know someone else who is using ExText for the same account and who also already had pre-existing Word 2000 on their machine, with no problems. Is there a setting or something I need to toggle or untoggle or ......?? Any help would be very greatly appreciated, please email me. Thanks so much!

You can still highlight your word and press Alt-T-A to... sm
get to the Autocorrect dialog box in 2007. Your highlighted text is already in the With box. Just type your abbreviation and tab to the OK button and hit Enter. A lot of the old shortcuts still work even though the menus are no longer on the ribbon.
I contract with several companies/doctors, and I highlight the...
discrepancy (bold it) as well as underline it. I also add a note at the bottom like this:
NOTE: Age discrepancy. (Or medication discrepancy, etc.).
If needed, I am more specific.
Every account I transcribe likes this approach, and my QA people have actually adopted this technique, requiring their other MTs to do this.
I know not every account will find this acceptable, but it's been working well for me for years now.
If you right click the folder, it should highlight it and give you
a drop down menue with the option to rename. Let me know if that helps...
Type whatever word/phrase, bold, highlight, sm--
select Autocorrect, add.
highlight the text and hit Ctrl Shft A or hit that key combo
before you type your text and hit it again when you're done. This works in any Word version.
Just open glo file in Word, highlight all, then change case and save back
to glo file. Use the Alt key trick to highlight just the column of words, then Shift + F3 to toggle through the change case commands. First save your glossary under a different name so you also keep the original.
Please don't delete - We need you!
I do not understand why this post continues to be deleted. I am simply stating what you have already said in your statement to the board. It IS sad to think that this wonderful board, who has been so supportive of American MTs, seems to have given up the good fight. I truly believe if legislation to enforce HIPAA regulations, as well as regulations on financial records, is focused on, rather than simply trying to compete monetarily with offshoring (which, frankly, we cannot do), we will have a real chance of at least stopping the flow of medical and financial personal records from leaving this country. Just because outsourcing exists does not make it right, and as long as we continue to fight it there is a chance to make a real difference. There are still many, MANY physicians for whom the "bottom line" is not the most important aspect of transcription, and many others who have experience offshore transcription first hand and realize the quality is not there. As long as there are people in this industry like Sheri with integrity and the willingness to fight for what they believe, even if it is against the odds, there is hope. THAT is why I am quite saddened to see this particular forum, one of the staunchest supporters of US-only transcription for US physicians, fall by the wayside. I don't think I"m bashing anyone. I'm just hoping you will reconsider. We need people like you!!
I just hit DELETE.
I never say a word to them
Delete what???
At what point does delete that go to far? It's an op note and I get the pre and post diagnosis, procedure, surgeon, asst, anesthesia, etc. Then she goes on to hpi, ros, fh, sh, meds, allergies, and exam. After exam she realizes that she's doing an op note and tells me to delete that and start over from preop diagnosis. Needles to say she was an extremely difficult to understand ESL, wasted about 20 minutes of typing time that I won't get paid for and I had to split my shift.
Sorry y'all it was vent or scream. I chose the vent to not wake up the family.
delete it
when i worked in editscript, i typed right through microsoft word. it was prerequisite that i get rid of all msworks or it would mess everything up. i would delete msworks.
delete key
The reason the delete key is not above the arrow keys is that with this keyboard you will do as much work with your thumbs as possible. This is part of what makes it ergonomic, & I would strongly suggest re-learning "delete" in its current position rather than try to circumvent their system. When I first got my Kinesis keyboard 7 years ago I went through a whole relearning process that was kind of slow & frustrating but worth it in the long run, & now I'm glad I didn't try to do an end-run around their thought process.
But you program keys this way:
Hit "Program" (upper right-hand corner) + F11. The 4 keyboard lights will flash quickly. Then hit the key you want to reprogram. The lights will flash slowly. Then keystroke what you want the key to do. When you are finished hit Program + F11 again. The lights will go out. It's programmed.

MedQuist Announces Preliminary, Partial and Unaudited Financial Results
Friday August 19, 5:14 pm ET
MT. LAUREL, N.J., Aug. 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- MedQuist Inc. (Pink Sheets: MEDQ - News) announced today certain preliminary, partial and unaudited financial results. Once the Company completes the financial assessment and review of its billing practices disclosed in the Company's previous filings with the SEC, the Company expects that an independent registered public accounting firm will review and/or audit the Company's financial statements, as appropriate. While, at this time, the Company cannot estimate the total costs of (i) the billing review, (ii) defense of the class action matters, (iii) the SEC investigation, and (iv) compliance with the Department of Justice investigation, all of which have been previously disclosed in either the Company's filings with the SEC or the Company's press releases, the costs incurred to date by the Company in connection with the foregoing have been included in the results set forth below. Because the completion of the billing review and resolution of the litigation and governmental investigatory matters are pending, the Company is not certain whether any changes to the accounting treatment of any component of its consolidated financial statements will be required and, if any changes are necessary, whether any such changes would have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the financial information set forth below is preliminary, unaudited, and subject to change based on the completion of the financial assessment and review of the Company's billing practices and the completion of the review and/or audit of its financial statements, as appropriate.
ADVERTISEMENT
The information set forth below is derived from the Company's internal books and records. The Company cautions investors not to place undue reliance on the information presented below. As a result of the developments described above and in the Company's previous SEC filings, the Company's financial statements have not been audited or reviewed by an independent registered accounting firm. The information contained in this press release also has not been audited or reviewed by an independent registered accounting firm. Such information is not a substitute for the information required to be reported in the Company's Forms 10-K and Forms 10-Q that have not yet been filed. There can be no assurance that the results of the billing review, and resolution of the litigation and governmental investigatory matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's revenue, results of operations and financial condition.

Notes:
(1) Information presented for the twelve months ended
(2) Information presented for the three months ended
(3) Information presented as of the date
Twelve months ended December 31, 2003
Revenues:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that the Company's revenue increased from approximately $486 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002 to approximately $490 million for the comparable 2003 period. The increase was largely the result of twelve months of Lanier operations being reflected in 2003 results as compared to six months of Lanier operations being reflected in 2002 results, as the acquisition of Lanier Healthcare LLC took place on July 1, 2002, largely offset by transcription service volume declines as well as declining pricing from both new and existing transcription clients.
Operating Income:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that operating income declined from approximately $71 million, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2002 to approximately $61 million for the comparable 2003 period. The decline in operating income is largely the result of transcription service volume and rate declines, partially offset by the result of twelve months of Lanier operations being reflected in 2003 results as compared to six months of Lanier operations being reflected in 2002 results, as the acquisition of Lanier Healthcare LLC took place on July 1, 2002.
Balance Sheet Highlights:
At December 31, 2003 the Company had $162 million in cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2003, the Company had less than $100 thousand in total debt. Other than minimal exercises of stock options, there were no additional issuances of capital stock or other securities for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2003.
Twelve months ended December 31, 2004
Revenues:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that the Company's revenue decreased from approximately $490 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 to approximately $456 million for the comparable 2004 period. The decline in revenues includes the impact of decreasing transcription service volume from existing and lost clients, partially offset by new clients, as well as the impact of pricing declines attributable to a competitive pricing environment. Additionally, the Company has recognized declines in revenue from its front-end speech recognition products as it transitioned from TalkStation to SpeechQ for Radiology.
Operating Income:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that operating income declined from approximately $61 million, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2003 to approximately $23 million for the comparable 2004 period. The decline in operating income includes: 1) the impact of approximately $11 million in costs incurred in 2004 related to the ongoing billing investigation and associated litigation, 2) approximately $4 million in costs associated with separation and replacement of the Company's management team, including members at the executive level and 3) approximately $3 million associated with the write-off of intangible assets associated with products no longer being offered. In addition, the base business, as described above in the Revenues section, experienced a decline in transcription service volume from existing and lost clients and a decline in transcription service rates charged to customers. The impact of the revenue decline was partially offset by several cost saving initiatives including reductions in telecommunications costs, office consolidations and associated staff reductions.
Balance Sheet Highlights:
At December 31, 2004 the Company had $196 million in cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2004, the Company had less than $100 thousand in total debt. Other than minimal exercises of stock options, there were no additional issuances of capital stock or other securities for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2004.
Six Months ended June 30, 2005
Revenues:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that the Company's revenue decreased from approximately $232 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 to approximately $213 million for the comparable 2005 period. The decline in revenues includes the impact of the result of reductions in contracted transcription service rates from existing clients, further affected by new transcription business service volume replacing lost transcription service volume at a lower average price. Management expects these pricing pressures to continue and for revenue in the second half of 2005 to decline from first half levels.
Operating Income:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that operating income declined from approximately $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 to an operating loss of approximately $8 million for the comparable 2005 period. Operating income includes 1) approximately $16 million in costs incurred in 2005 related to the ongoing billing investigation and associated litigation, which represents an increase of approximately $11 million over similar costs incurred for the comparable time period in 2004 and 2) approximately $3 million in costs associated with separation and replacement of the Company's management team, including members at the executive level, which represents and increase of approximately $2 million over similar costs incurred for the comparable time period in 2004. In addition, the base business, as described above in the Revenues section experienced a decline in transcription service rates charged to customers. The impact of the revenue decline was partially offset by several cost saving initiatives including reductions in telecommunications costs, office consolidations and associated staff reductions. The Company continues to strive for improved profitability through service and technology enhancement initiatives, along with other cost reductions.
Three months ended June 30, 2005
Revenues:
Preliminary, unaudited results indicate that the Company's revenue decreased from approximately $114 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 to approximately $106 million for the comparable 2005 period. The decline in revenues includes the impact of the result of reductions in contracted transcription service rates from existing clients, further affected by new transcription business service volume replacing lost transcription service volume at a lower average price. As noted above, management expects these pricing pressures to continue and for revenue in the second half of 2005 to decline from first half levels.
Operating Income:
Preliminary results indicate that operating income declined from approximately $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2004 to an operating loss of approximately $6 million for the comparable 2005 period. Operating income includes 1) approximately $9.5 million in costs incurred in 2005 related to the ongoing billing investigation and associated litigation, which represents an increase of approximately $5.5 million over similar costs incurred for the comparable time period in 2004 and 2) $1 million in costs associated with separation and replacement of the Company's management team, including members at the executive level. In addition, the base business, as described above in the Revenues section experienced a decline in transcription service rates charged to customers. The impact of the revenue decline was partially offset by several cost saving initiatives including reductions in telecommunications costs, office consolidations and associated staff reductions. The Company continues to strive for improved profitability through service and technology enhancement initiatives, along with other cost reductions.
Balance Sheet Highlights:
At June 30, 2005, the Company had $198 million in cash and cash equivalents and no debt. There were no additional issuances of capital stock or other securities for the six month period ended June 30, 2005.

Even when they deduct your entire (sm)
report if you make one error that QA doesn't catch and the hospital does?
Seems to me like QA should get dinged, not the MT.
TRS is your typical admin-heavy, treat the MT like a number company, made more offensive by their assumption that everyone in America is "Christian" and will adore prayer requests and other off-topic crap on the company email.
I think this entire season is going to be -
while he is in the hospital and how the business continues without him. We won't know if he makes it until the last episode. Gotta feelin' he won't. The show will die with him. - 
been this way my entire life ....N/M
Fox is going to show the entire
fourth season this summer. Two episodes back-to-back every Tuesday night. Maybe you can see some of the ones you missed. :-)
