The only way I know is to use the Mail Merge function.

You could try converting the addresses from text to table. You may have to go through and manually fix returns, etc., but it beats retyping them.


My method uses the addresses in an Excel database and then the Word Mail Merge function to generate the layout. It's very detailed to explain here but I would suggest you check the Help Menu or the MS website for specifics on how to use the MM function and accomplish your task.


Good luck!


How to merge them?
I have just started working on EMDAT Inscribe.  Is there a way to get all of my autocorrect/autotext from MS Word into the EMDAT Inscribe program without having re-enter all of them again?  Thanks in advance for any help with this.

merge shortcut into auto correct?

Does anyone know how to merge the word list that I have for Shortcut for Windows into my Autocorrect for Word?  I had it done before, but somehow it got reset or something, so the entries are no longer there.  Any help will be greatly appreciated!  Thanks


Request that they place a stop payment on the check, reissue, and mail priority or overnight mail
If they refuse or invent unbelievable excuses, you'll know you have a problem. If MY check was a week late, there are many months I would be in deep trouble.
I realize checks occasionally do get lost in the mail. If they are 100% sure it was mailed, then they shouldn't mind issuing another.

Be firm and be persistent.

Block her E-mail, return mail unopened

On AOL I can determine who I want to receive mail from and block those I do not  -- and if they are blocked  they get their E-mail back as being "undeliverable".  If she sends things out -- send back --unaccepted.  But to be simple just E-mail her back or call the recuriter if you don't want to deal with her directly and state -- leave me alone.  If she is in another state you should not be scared of her but you may simply have to put it out there in no uncertain terms.


Do they feature MT's?

No, this feature is not...

There is a compatibility feature

There is a compatibility feature with Vista, or so they claim.  It's all in this Q&A piece in the Times here.  I think you might have to register for the Times to read this link but it's got some good info

I like the Glossaries feature sm
I can make separate glossaries for each separate hospital and then it doesn't crowd the main glossary. Also, if I leave an MTSO, I can just delete that glossary without losing all my main entries.
i think yahoo has a feature like this
but I haven't used it so I don't know for sure
Yeah, I heard they have that feature now, but...
I just don't use it. I use yahoo, but very rarely. I forgot about that though.
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.
Are you talking about the AutoText feature?
To create a new AutoText entry, it's ALT F3.

I don't know if there is one to open the AutoCorrect options window by default but you could always assign a hotkey/combo.
Help! MS Word 'Track Changes' Feature

Hi,

Can anyone help with this? I want to use the track changes feature as I proofread reports, so the TXer can learn from their mistakes. After I send the TXer that version with the correction marks, I want to THEN REMOVE THE MARKS, so I can have a 'clean' version of the report which has all of my corrections to it, but doesn't show any red marks. As of now, I see now way to remove the marks. Thanks a lot.

Dave
Use the pass feature to move sm
past questions that are stumping you for the moment and you will get them again after you've finished the set of questions.  Get a good night's sleep the night before, eat a good breakfast the morning of if you can.  Know your BOS and general medical terminology and you will do fine.
Cool MT search feature

Found this awesome search engine tailor-made for MTs. Works fantastically well. Link is below.


Not with Word 2007. That feature is gone.

Actually, we've been handed back that feature.

what feature have "we" been handed back?

Maybe because Home version does not have encryption feature.

I use the Compare feature on the tools menu.

Goodness, if you didn't know about the command feature, you really need to

Will this glossary transfer to the ESP feature in EXText?
I know I have emailed you before but I chose that financially I just couldn't afford a Expander right now and then I found out that there is one built into the EXText.  I'm trying to build that up but as I have never used Expanders before I am at a loss as to what to put into it.  Thanks.
You need to use the command feature of IT when you make your entry sm
Copy and insert your text into a new IT entry. Now go back thru the entry and each time you want a field to be placed, you have to hit the "command" button on the bottom left of the window. Then hit CTRL+F9 to create a world field (this will make the little bracket thingies when it spits out in Word). When you're all done, hit OK and there you go!
Where would this feature be located on the drop-down menu on top?
Thanks.
Help with MS Word 'Show Edits' Feature...

 


Hello,


I am proofreading reports as MS Word files. I want to send a version showing the corrections (in red, as MS Word does when you turn on this feature), but then I want to send the final 'clean' version, with the corrections but without showing all the changes in red, to the client. It doesn't seem that this is possible. Whenever I turn the show edit feature on, I cannot then remove the red marks later.


Thanks for help,


Dave


 


I just use the * and the search and find feature; seems much faster than macros to me. nm

If I can remember, I like to use the "autocorrection" feature in Word that adds it to AC SM

automatically. No writing anything down. I don't take my  hands from the keyboard if I can help it. Sometimes I *do* have to go back and un-correct it so I can add it.


I do my work all crazy. Comes from so many years of not having spell check or anything.

I'm not sure if it puts it in Word or what it does.  I've never needed it. 


I think a program that would pull header information from Word and add it to a log file might be needed by quite a few MTs.  I don't know if that's feasible since everyone's needs would be different.  A lot of MTs like to keep logs though, myself included.


If I think of anything else I'll be back.
