Thanks for all that info! I was almost afraid to post on here because some of the most innocent of posts get the snottiest comments. I really do all of that stuff. That's why I'm having a hard time understanding what's going on. I mean I typed 2500 lines my first week without using any type of expander or anything. After I got comfortable with the platform and such, I started working on my expander. The company provided their own, and I also use the autocorrect, but I only started that this week. I finally figured out that I could type in tsh and autocorrect it TSH and prn to p.r.n., etc. I have 30 dictators and, so far, have whole templates with their "usual" phrases already inserted. We have a tab marker that we can use on our expander, so for __-year-olds, I type yo-, and it expands out to a tab marker-year-old. I can then hit F8 to jump to that marker and insert the correct age. I have noticed that I forget to use alot of my abbreviations though. I do a lot of ortho, too, and have bex for bilateral lower extremities, mpj-, which expands to metatarsal phalangeal joint (that is account specific), and then when I need to type MPJ, I have it in the autocorrect without the hyphen and it capitalizes it for me. I still have a lot of building to do, I know. Thank you, again, for your kind words and helpful tips!!!
