Iowa & Nebraska Medical Directories available
I hope I am allowed to post this here. I have an Iowa Medical Directory and a Nebraska Medical Directory which I was forced to purchase to do transcription for a certain company. They are no longer needed. If anybody can use them, please let me know.
Iowa/Nebraska Medical Directories
The Iowa Medical Directory is October 2006 and Nebraska is December 2006.
Iowa and Nebraska Medical Directories
The directories contain adresses, phone numbers, etc on each medical provider, clinics, and hospitals in the state.
Dictionaries and expanders, sm
I have a few questions on dictionaries and expanders. I have been working for MQ for the past two years. I have added a lot of words to the spell checker dictionary, and I have a lot of shortcuts, does anyone know if there is a program that I can use with MS Word that will allow me to import these. The files are .tlx, .aco and .ocx. I am going IC and will be using my own computer. I was just trying to find a program to get set up on (even if I cannot use what I have already saved), that will be the most benefit for me in the future. I also have a laptop, so I would like a program I can use on both computers without having to pay a fortune to do so.

TIA ;D
Help! My dictionaries ae disabled!

I recently upgraded to MS Word Pro and now my dictionaries are disabled.  I'm almost positive that I worked in Word after the upgrade and they were fine, but this morning they are gone. When I look (Spelling>Options>Custom Dictionaries) I see my Stedman's listed and also a Custom listed which I think may be the words I have okayed (not really sure if that was there before).  They are both checked.  The custom was default so I changed Stedman's to default, but still Word is not recognizing any medical terms and is marking them all - good gravy!  Hoping someone with a bit more tech expertise than me can help me figure out what could be wrong?  TIA!

Preferences for on-line dictionaries

Do you have a favorite on-line dictionary?  I'm looking for both medical and non-medical.  Thanks.


All you do is on your other computer with your dictionaries....inside
copy whatever you named your SPF file, like I have a main SPF file and another for dictation macros for the account I am on. Just copy them to a flash drive or whatever medium you use to backup your SPF file, plug your flash drive (which is what I use)and then when it comes up on your computer where you need your SPF file, copy it and put it in your ShortHand file. You could have copied your whole Shorthand file and then put it on your new computer or new hard drive (that is what I do because I don't like the new Shorthand versions). Hope I explained this clearly.
If you go to this site they share dictionaries - sm
If you go to productivity talk they have a forum on there where people share their dictionaries. I picked up one for ShortHand on there that was full of drug shortcuts and another for sutures. Not a spell check per say but at least its something.
It's found in a few dictionaries off the onelook.com site. Use it. :) nm

The help file tells you how to create additional dictionaries and, yes, they do get full. nm

I didn't mean internet searching, I meant searching my directories for filenames. nm
