Amy,

What did you think about Medbrain?

Thank you everybody for the information on word expanders. I think I understand it much better now. I have decided that for now I will use my AutoCorrect function to the fullest. I spent some time, first deleting anything that I wasn't using in the AutoCorrect and then adding things that I use a lot. For instance, everytime I typed a brand name drug, I added that so that I don't have to capitalize when transcribing. Also, long words, such as hydrochlorothiazide I abbreviated to "hyd" and so on. Also, I put in some paragraphs (I found I could use up to almost 50 words) for some of the dictators. For example, some dictators that always close with the same sentence, I put that in under the dictators initials. Anyway, it seemed to take a little while adding all my shortcuts but I soon found that it really cut down on my keystrokes. So, thanks again for all the help.

If you are the only one using "autocorrect" on your computer - it is great and will perform miracles for you.

My problem was that I had to share "autocorrect" with another transcriptionist at work --didn't work out too well.

So now - I use my Instant Text and she is using "autocorrect."

Carol Jean,

Now that you have used Instant Text for a few weeks now are you finding that it is a lot better than the Autotext and Autocorrect if you are the only one using it?

Hi Everyone,
I am new and am curious to know if anyone has used Instant Text in the platform ChartNet?? My company may be switching over to this platform on the account that I work on. I currently use both SmarType and SpeedType together and LUV, LUV THEM!!! and simply cannot be without either of them and I am just SICK about that because SmarType does NOT work in ChartNet. I am told SpeedType does. Instant Text is kind of similar to SmartType but not really. Just curious. Any input would be FABULOUS!
Thank you in advance!
