what is your auto-delete file setting at?
set it to 0...see if that helps
File - Open - Right click on dictionary and delete.

Sometimes it helps to convert the sound file - sm
I notice that when I play straight DSS files my Bytescribe will not restart at the beginning after I reach the end, but rewind 2 seconds or so and keep replaying the end; but if I convert them to .wav files (which I do by "opening" them with another .wav player called "PowerPlayer"--downloaded the free trial and just use it for this) then I do not have this problem, it will just restart at the beginning after I reach the end. So that may be affecting it, or a setting is off, or there is corruption of the file or player maybe. Lots of possibilities.
Turn off puter, wait a min, turn on with delete key pressed down, then hit delete key NUMEROUS times

ha ha ha crash and burn

if and I repeat if you are doing that much you will


crash and burn.  you either pace yourself in MTing


or you leave pretty quick.


but unless you are doing only OPs or only ERs i


honestly doubt you are doing quality work of acute care


with all the crap that comes with the docs not being able to


enter right numbers, say right names, say decent drug doses


or even say the drugs correctly.  nope doing all the leg work


necessary to do most acute care, you won't do 2800 lines in a


decent number of hours a day to have a life.


if you wait til a crash,
i guess you would have a 'vacation' while you shop and wait for your new setup.
Oh, to be young again -Mondays all I want to do is crash.

Thank you. Wow, you have a lot of entries! I was afraid it would crash with my
10 to 12,000. Thank you for your response. I'm trying to tinker with the ESPs and wondering if there is a way to insert a hard space in an expansion. (Such as between Dr. and his last name so there is no separation to another line when I expand. Any idea how this could be done? Thanks again for your time. I do appreciate your help.
oops, should have been "neurotransmitter crash" :) nm
nm
crash was decent, the Notebook is good
they dont make them like they used to tho !
No, but Autocorrect is subject to crash and you can lose everything. You need a real expander. NM

Crash, The Chronicles of Narnia, War of the Worlds, Derailed, A History of Violence,
Brokeback Mountain, and Dreamer. All of them were good, although I think Brokeback Mountain would be on the bottom of the list for me. Crash and The Chronicles of Narnia were very good in my opinion.
Rename your normal.dot file to something else then restart Word. It will create a new file.

I think it is the same type of file, so rename it and replace your autocorrect file with your DQS us

Help..I lost my word file. How can I retreive a file that has been changed? sm

I was working on a large file and had saved it in Word. I then went back to work on the file and hit a key that made the page go blank.  When I went to close the document it asked me to save any changes on the document. I answered yes, and now when I click on that document it is all blank! Shouldnt the previous info saved be there, even if the current stuff is not? Please help me!! Thank you


Depends on the file format of the Short Cuts file.
ShortHand comes with a utility file that can import various formats. You can get that file with the trial download of SH.

...with your user.aco file. Save your autocorrect file to somewhere else. nm

You can save the SH file in a text file and import to IT that way. sm
You may have to do some cleanup in the SH text file, but it sure would be faster than re-entering them all manually.
File taxes under the name on file w Social Security....
Name on W2 doesn't have to match, but your tax return has to match SS records. They don't want your marriage license or anything else. Did that for 13 years as instructed by IRS. Didn't have to change it with SS until state changed rules requiring drivers license to match SS records. Still use my maiden name in some limited circumstances.
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.

Delete resume
I am trying to delete my resume from the bank and can modify but can't figure out how to delete it.  Help, please.
why do you want to delete your resume - sm
are you getting too many calls for work??? If you are, then I want to put my resume on there!!!
Please delete the below posts

Thank you.


Please Delete my Post.
Now I am Jodi, what do you say?
Delete them.........esp if you no longer do them...

For private MDs, I only keep their diskettes 6 months, since ALL the work and an additional diskette has been provided when I returned the work.........


If you worked for a national, you need to send the diskettes to them I would think.........that is, IF you worked for a national MT company.  If not, I'd just delete them..........keeping the floppies for myself.........for future....(yep, I still use floppy disks...*LOL*).........


 


You say you can't cancel it - does that mean you can't delete it?

Have you tried using both the delete button on your keyboard and the delete icon in Outlook Express?


If your camera came with any kind of software, you should be able to reduce the size of the pictures so that this won't happen again. A lot of times I will do a test email and send the picture to myself to be sure it isn't too large.


If your camera didn't come with software and you don't have Photoshop (and don't want to spend the bucks for Photoshop), there are lots of freeware/shareware downloads for basic photo editing software. Just Google it and I'm sure you will find something that fits your needs.


not sure on this, but maybe just delete and replace nm

Delete the abbrev and put it in again sm
You have inadvertently hit the enter key at some point in this process.  If you have added it as a Smart Block, this is just what happens and is why I don't use that facet of it in Word.
Delete Key question
Forgive my ignorance, but is there any way I can assign another key to work as a delete key?  - Thanks!   
Delete manually

C\:Documents and Settings


Select the User and there you will find a folder "Favorites" usually with a star icon. Open and delete the links manually in it.


an .exe file is not a voice file
I'm no techie, but it sounds like they might've sent the wrong file by mistake. Or could it be a program you need for testing/working for them that they sent? What is the name of the file (if it is something you can say here)?
INDIA ALERT, DELETE
.
If you really don't want to cause hard feelings, just delete it
and if they ask always say that you just haven't had the time to check e-mails lately.
Just delete them, never respond. Its a scam. nm

In MS Word I did something to delete my little disk on the....sm

task bar and also the page that opens a new document and the print preview page.  There are probably more missing.  How do I get them back?


thx so much


Did you look in your recycle bin to see if maybe you hit delete by accident...nm
nm.
Oh, please, you delete the names. Where've you been? lol!

Curious, if a dictator has you delete...
several lines of dictation or even a whole report after you typed it, do you charge for it?  I never have because if someone were to check my lines, they obviously wouldn't match.  I've never really thought about it until just this second where I was asked to "go back and scratch all that."  Total downer, know what I'm sayin?
You could just go through and delete all the blank lines.
Since it is just a test, why not try doing that?
ExpressScribe - how do I delete files?
How do I delete old audio files from ExpressScribe?  These are the ones that I can go and recover if I've deleted from my main screen but they are still backed up.  I've got a ton and don't need to keep any of them - they are just taking up memory space.  Anyone know?
She wasn't asking how to delete cookies, she was going
to be instructing people on how to do it. 
You can do CTRL-N as mentioned. I just delete.
After report is typed, I run spellcheck - CTRL-O (not zero).

Then I CTRL-TAB to get to Express Scribe, then CTRL-Delete to delete the highlighted voice file. Message says do you want to delete, yes.

Then CTRL-TAB back to report and F12 to send. It sounds like a lot of steps, but it takes no time at all.

I like doing it this way because there's no way to mix the voice file with the next template that downloads immediately after sending other report. When the next template comes in, it brings the voice file.

Basically the steps are: Type, spell check, delete voice file, send report.
Before you delete the old normal.dot you can use the Organizer
to transfer your macros and other customizations to the new file. The only thing you will lose is any keyboard shortcuts you created. But this problem may be with the macro itself, not the normal.dot.
They told me to delete Java
Acutally they told me to delete Java from my computer before even downloading and installing VPN.  Are you saying that I need Java to make a webpage open after connecting to the VPN?
Sometimes I post things I wish I could go back and delete.
Although, I think when people say things like what you mentioned, they are speaking out of fear. Of course, everyone wants to be married, they just don't want the heartaches. And some of us are no good at picking the right person for us. However, I understand when you are just having a bad day and need to vent and I hope others understand that too. I do wish the best with your marriage and family. Take care.
