Guest guest Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 Tracey, expander thing is funny. I have " kids " to expand as kidney stones. My kidney stones were so excited about Christmas this year. They are 5, 7, and 9 years old. lol Ever have a patient get hit by a carotid? (I know I shouldn't really use that--CAR being a word to expand-- but it's OK, I see it.) I used to use Instant Text and had it 'compile' a dictionary. I worked for prisons, as well as psych hospitals. So, when I did compilation 'shopping' came up (agoraphobics) and shooting was also in there. So, I always had to be careful not to put, " She went shooting with her mother last night at the mall. " Jodi Re: Gift recording I've been called worse, so trachea is just fine by me! *G* On Mon, 30 Dec 2002 07:02:03 -0600 " =?iso-8859-1?B?p1Jlbm5pZac=?= " writes: > And a new nickname is born.................. > > LOLOL! > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > > Oh, HOW FUNNY!!! > > I had Shorthand still turned on....and trac ends up trachea! > > So, just sign me, > > Trachea > > :-) > > -------Original Message------- > > > Val, > > I'm also curious about the cost of incorporating.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 On the subject of expanders -- I learned a new trick a while back from Betsy Ertle of SpeedType fame, which you could incorporate to help solve the problem -- she uses (and I have adopted the process), i.e. if (using your example) you have car=carotid, you can use carx=car (in other words no expansion). This sure helps me out a lot. I also use copd=chronic obstructive pulmonary disease but copdx=COPD. I know with SpeedType (and most other programs I have used) that you can go over and press an arrow key to stop the expansion and there are other tricks to accomplish this -- but I have found this method of adding an " x " or some other simple item to accomplish the same thing. Sorry, this was soo... long, but hopefully everyone gets the idea.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2002 Report Share Posted December 30, 2002 I actually do it the other way around... copd is COPD, copdx is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. But hey.. whatever works for you Jan jantranscribes@... " Typing is my life. " " Whoever signs the paycheck makes the rules.
