I need help in MS Word. I have a new doc that requires almost every page to have different margins.

I used to have an account that we could type Control and L and that would make a page break with the margins for a letter. I don't know how to create this. I looked into macros in Word and am totally confused and have no idea what to do.

Can anyone help me figuer out a way I can assign Control and L for the letter margins and control P for progress note margins. I'd really appreciate any help

Microsoft Word help

I hope I can explain this right:

I can be typing along just fine in Word, and suddenly it will "blank out", causing me to retype sometimes two or three sentences. There are times this happens three or four times per report, and times it does not happen all day. I have to stop, click with the mouse back to where I was, and retype. Does this make sense and does anyone know what I can do to get it to stop? Thanks!

MICROSOFT WORD QUESTION

From time to time I try to add a word into a paragraph and it starts taking out the beginning of the next word so I end up having to type the whole paragraph again. Today I am trying to change the first word of a normal and it starts taking out the next word. I cannot type the wole normal again. I hope you understand what I mean. Does anyone have a quick fix. TIA

In Microsoft Word, there should be a record
of changes made and who accessed the report and made it. SOmeone with more technical expertise should be able to tell you what you do.

Guide to Microsoft Word
I have this book and I think it is well worth its price!! It gives many short cuts that have helped me immensely in my production. I actually got this book because I was still using WP5.1 and everyone was using/asking for Word. I had always fought with Word even after taking a college course in Word. I ended up using this book to help transfer all my private clients to Word and I think I am back up to, maybe even surpassing, my production rate. I hope this helps you.

Microsoft Word 2007

I had to do recovery on my computer and I added a newer Microsoft Office. This is MUCH different than my old version so I wanted to see if anyone can help me out. On old version if I used AutoText for saving smaller things after typing a couple of letters it would pop up with the info that I wanted. I can't figure out if this new version does that or not. From what I have read I can't find that it does, but if anyone has any information that it does still do this it would be greatly appreciated!

Medical Transcriptionist's Guide to Microsoft Word book
Does anybody have this book? Is it worth the money to buy it if you are pretty comfortable creating macros and such in Word already? Just wondering.... I am always looking for new ways to increase my speed and make things easier. Any info would be great from someone who has this book. Thanks!

Word count program
I have an older model puter that is slowly going up and have word 97 count program on it. I am looking for something that is compatible with that - that also does all headers and footers - not just the header and footer on the first page that I can put on my new puter. I have checked in to SPellex and that is really slow counting. I also checked in to Abacus, which was fast and pretty accurate; it actually gave me a little more on a few of my reports as a trial run. ANyone have any ideas on this. Thanks for any help.

Depends on what word program you are using
If you are using microsoft word 2003 or even 2000, I believe, then you only put in 1 space as there is a built in space in word that already shows up and if you try to put in a second space it will go in one space when you go down to the next line. Hopes this helps.

Does your word processing program
have "search and replace" feature? That should do what you want.

Yes, it's a word expander--can be used with any program (not just DQS)

word expander program sm

Pros and cons of word Expander programs that work with Chartscript? PC ShortHand as opposed to Instant Text? Which is better? I have downloaded PC shorthand for a 30 day trial, but to me its a little slow. Any ideas? Thanks

PRD is a dos-based program, will not work in Word.
It is a great program, wish it would, but you might have to look at something like Shorthand. Same with Stedman's. It is a Windows installation, not a copy/paste like the old dos programs (WP, etc.)

downloading free word program
has anyone ever used open office to download word so a test can be taken? I rent a computer from my company and I know I probably should not do this. My question is would they know if this is being done? Thank you.

smartype attaches to your Word program - SM
so you cannot use it unless you open Word as well as the account's platform, and type there (then copy/pasting the reports into the facillity's system).

Shorthand works independently so works with pretty much all systems.

I've never had one that did not expand a shorcut with the space bar.

dictaphone word client program
I went into google, typed 'dictaphone word client', saw your request there and a few others re this - you might find your answer using Google search. Good luck. Jean

It's a stand alone program and doesn't pull up within Word itself. nm

Pros & Cons of ESP word expansion program?
Does this work pretty well? (I have Word 2002) I'd like not to have to buy any software. Any opinions on ESP? Any other Word-compatible programs that work well, also?

That would depend on the employer's set up. Word can be interfaced with another program, sm
in that, Word would be running remotely, but in conjunction with another program. If this is the case, the documents would be saved on the employer's server and not on any drive on your pc as a Word document. If you using Word exclusively, when saving a document it would be stored on your computer's hd and/or a cd.

Get a decent word expansion program like PRD or Shorthand sm
autocorrect is very limited. If you want to make money, your really need a good expander.
