How do I get AutoCorrect/Text to do a backspace, i.e. {backspace}-year-old?

I use yo in my Shortcut and that can handle the backspace function but now I'm using a new platform and had to import my Expander BUT it won't import entries with {BACKSPACE}.  I'm trying to put it into the AutoCorrect/Text but it won't take the command to backspace so now when I type yo it comes out looking like this:  35 -year-old and I have to manually go back and take out the extra space.  When I try to enter the command exactly like in ShortCut, {BACKSPACE}-year-old, AutoText sticks it in EXACTLY like that.


  Is there a way to get it to do what I want???


hit Ctrl/K, hit Backspace, hit Okay

I mean, ctrl k backspace OK

if can't copy/paste, highlight text, ctrl/x, go to shorthand, ctrl/V

Ctrl + W or Ctrl + F4 prompts to save and close documents
without closing Word. Ctrl + N opens a new document.
You're hitting Alt+Ctrl+S. Hit Alt+Ctrl+C to get back.

...functions should be there. Ctrl+N to send, Ctrl + I for line
f
Instead of Ctrl+Ctrl+Insert, try
Ctrl+Insert+Insert. See if that works. Mark the word-phrase that you want to insert first. Let me know.
shorthand backspace
do ctrl/k, then hit backspace key, add -year-old....will look like {@KEY BkSp}-year-old
Setting backspace for pedal

I have an older transcriber (DAC Model DA-125) and have had it for quite some time now.  I moved my office over the weekend and had to unplug the machine.  Well, my backspace has reset to practically nothing and I can't find my manual on how to reprogram the backspace.  Is there anyone else out there using this phone and if so, how to do reprogram it for the backspace length?


Thanks so much for your help.

C-phone auto backspace - How to?

Does anyone know how to set/adjust auto backspace on a Dictaphone C-phone?


Thanks.


C-phone auto backspace
When I used the C-phone, I would press 9 to increase auto backspace and 8 to decrease it.

Does anyone know how to increase the pedal backspace on a DVI? sm
I am having a problem that when I lift my foot off the pedal, it pauses but does not back up at all.  It is hard to work like that and I cannot figure for the life of me what to do to fix it!
Well the backspace feature won't work as far as I know BUT sm
I use 48x and have that expand to 48-year-old and it will expand correctly. Some people I know use 48y and set it to expand to the same thing. Not perfect but hope it helps.
C-phone ? backspace increment?

Does anyone know how to set the backspace increment on c-phone.  My instructions say to use * for "set incremental motion" but it's not working.  Any ideas would be appreciated.


Thanks.


Left thumb backspace keyboard
I can backspace with my left thumb and space forward with my right thumb. No reaching up with my pinkie to the backspace key at top right. It's called an "Erase Ease" I think. Let's me fly.
Just backspace over it. I think they just want an e addy so someone is accountable for the post.

Adusting auto backspace on C-phone
Can anyone tell me how to adjust the autobackspace on C-phone. I want to shorten it and can't find any directions. thanks.
Does your program have an option to put in a backspace in your expander?
I use ShortHand for Windows, and if this is what you use, you can put {@KEY BkSp} at the end of it and it will automatically backspace as part of the shortcut.

Same thing applies for bolding, etc. If you look in the help section, you should be able to find out if you can do this.

If you work in Microsoft word, you could record a macro instead of putting it into the autocorrect section.

Good luck!
Type Matrix keyboard has backspace key in middle- sm

The TypeMatrix keyboard is split down the middle, one split, with backspace keys (two of them) in the middle.  It is a vertically aligned keyboard, so if you can imagine each hand has its own keys and therefore its own backspace key.  You can see it at www.typematrix.com


I cannot recommend this keyboard enough (no, I don’t work for them)...I have had it for several years and it is amazing...I have reduced the pain and stress in my hands and wrists by 95%....I love it! 


 


Open the normal.dot file and change your zoom. Hit the space and backspace and close it.

{@KEY Ctrl+B}
nm
she did say Ctrl/S also, which...
searches for a document for a particular patient, then after looking at the document searched for, Ctrl/T would end THAT document w/o saving any changes that may have been made while viewing document...does this make sense?  Perhaps that is why she would use Ctrl/T...
Just CTRL+K sm

then it says "the next key you type" the CTRL+B, your entry, then CTRL+B to remove bolding at then end.  Why use tags?


I think it's Ctrl + J
Works for me.
Try ALT+CTRL+R or ALT+CTRL+P nm
.
Unfortunately, once CTRL CTRL
stops working for me, I'm unable to load any more shortcuts until I go out of the program and go back in. Weird.

At MQ with DQS, you can Ctrl X, but I don't know
nm
Ctrl-S
brings up a screen, and you fill in the field or fields you want to be searched. For instance, if I want to search for reports done by Dr. Smith, I put smith into provider last name and click find(?). Then a list of reports by Dr. Smith will display, and you can choose one to look at. It opens this document up in a separate Extext document than the one you are working on. Then you can copy and paste what you need into document you are working on or just read through it, etc.

You have to remember to close the search document before you close current Extext document because it messes something up which I can't remember right now!
ctrl x
never worked for me. I highlight text, right click, choose cut and then paste where I want it.
I have never used ctrl-T
I click on the little x in the upper right corner to close, not the big red one. This will just close that document and return you to working document. I have never been kicked out using it.

Ctrl-A & ESP

Our physicians list is sortable by specialty (we have a newer version), so it is logical to conclude that if the list is printable it can be done that way.


Good idea about ESP to desktop.  Thanks!


I believe it's ctrl+T and not alt+T

 to enable/disable the expander. 


Did you transfer the Expander from Word or build it from scratch?  Did the expander once work, then quit?   Or is this your very first use of Bayscribe? 


Nothing this year. We ALWAYS got a cool surprise in the past, but this year nothing. :-( nm

Not only did I finally receive the proper training, but the woman on the advisory board hired and mentored me. I also joined the local AAMT and networked. Good luck. I know how frustrating it can be. A community college will have a good program to include medical language, MT courses taught by local MTSOs, business English, anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, etc.
I can hit Esc or use Ctrl/X, too, to stop it. nm

Usng Ctrl I

I have a question about this -- it is disabled where I work.  However, I have been told I can use an ExText feature to go back to any date and see my jobs listed there.  Would this be just as effective as using Ctrl I?  My lines are terribly low too, as well as others with whom I work on this account.  Funny thing is, it has happened a couple of times that I have done a job and then a little while later gotten the exact same job back again as though it was never done.  I check my "list" like they told me to do and it is not there.  I've mentioned this to my supervisor and they don't seem to care.  But the did tell me to check my list every day and let them know if it is wrong.  Is this how they cheat us out of lines????


Got it - Ctrl+Alt+Up Arrow

Try ctrl-Z and see if that takes it away.
Meanwhile, i'll research it.  :)
