Escription/Edit Script question - Snow Bunny

Posted: Sep 26, 2010

Can anyone who uses ES think of a reason why the AutoCorrect feature stops working? I know that the "replace as typed" box is checked before I start the program. Also, sometimes the ES toolbar doesn't respond. I can click on it over and over again and no response. Any ideas and/or suggestions to resolve this problem would be appreciated.

Mine was my spellcheck would continually stop working. - ES too

I would have to get out of ES and back into Word to check the spellchecker on again. Still having other issues now that haven't resolved with several uninstalls & reinstalls. But I seem to have solved the spellchecker turning off by itself, at least, by making sure my Normal.dot is "holding" better, I guess you'd call it, by keeping a blank Word doc that I save on the desktop which I use just to "re-save" the Normal.dot by opening and closing the doc, etc.

Not sure I'm explaining myself well, but essentially, I went into Tools, Options, Save, checked Prompt to save Normal Template, and now occasionally do a "save" of my Normal.dot in a doc1.doc in order to help keep my settings from disappearing.

And here's a weird one: I was having problems with my ES toolbar too until I had to do a backup account that required ES version 8 instead of version 9, and then my toolbar in 9 started working.

I'm afraid some of my ES problems are Word-based, and even though I have my MS Office disc, I don't have my code anymore, so I can't reinstall Word like I'd like to but can only do a Repair & Detect so far. And I'm no Word maven, so I've been flying by the seat of my pants in terms of a lot of my ES issues which the Nuance techs can't seem to help me with.

I've been having problems since the beginning. I've tried 3 different computers and the third one is from the company.

Nothing gets resolved and Nuance is no help at all. Personally, I don't think ES should be able to fool around with blocking items in Word or able to force us to use only AC. It's not their program.

Sorry, off the subject. Anyway, the only way I can get AC working again is to go into it, retype the shortcut and answer 'yes' when it asks if I want to replace the darn thing. It is a pain.

If I could use my expander, I'd be happy.

Am I the only one who is constantly dealing with these issues? 1. Lines of text overlapping eachother into a confused jumble.

Does anyone here use EditScript v10? I am in a perpetual state of confusion regarding how things are calculated at Nuance. In v10 there is an RDR mode, in which we review our reports that have been corrected and get our accuracy percentage. But, there is also FIESA, which for me has a different percentage (sadly, much lower). I've noticed that FIESA generally only generates about 1 report per day for me, which doesn't seem very accurate. My percentage with RDR is 99%, an ...

I just started training on Edit Script 9 today. I was wondering if anyone from TransTech who is using Instant Text (I am using the Instant Text Pro V version) could contact me and tell me how you have your Instant Text configured to work with Edit Script 9. For some reason, my Instant Text Pro V did not work with Edit Script 9. I did go to the Instant Text website, and some have been able to use IT Pro V version with Edit Script 9. There was also mention of an upgrade to version 7. ...

I won't be running both programs at the same time as I will be working two different shifts. I just want to make sure before I load Edit Script that ...

We've all heard that, right? Someone should inform QA to not over QA then because adding in "a" or "the" or "an" is overediting! Plus, we get dinged for it. I'm so over this BS. I am literally so nervous now when I sit down to work. Yesterday, I slowed playback down to the point that I did 700 lines LESS than I had been doing just to see if this made any difference. Nope. Still got hit with a, an, the crap from QA. If tomorrow's big ...

Just wondering...when the documents are imported into the client's system, can their doctors edit them if they find an error before they sign off on them? When I worked in-house, the doctors could either edit the report or re-dictate whatever we had blanked. I'm just guessing that the reports go to a queue for the doctors to "read" and then sign since, legally, they are ultimately responsible for what they dictate. Just wondering if anyone knew. TIA. ...

I'm sure this question has been asked before, but how many lines on average would you say you can edit with ASR per hour? I think the most I have ever been able to do was around 250 myself. I just wondered how I measured up with other MTs with the ASR jobs. I remember a couple of years ago not long after MQ started up with ASR getting a company email describing an MT (no name was given) who could edit over 600 lines per hour and over 400 with straight transcription. ...

Jun 02, 2012

I think the platform is great. I use most of the important hot keys to increase speed, do not use the mouse much, and rely on the keyboard. The dictators are crystal clear. The editing is minimal; it's the cleanest I have seen in my experience. My internet connection is fast. I am not having any technical problems. The account specs are simple and clear. To make the same in VR as I was with traditional transcription, I would need to do 300 VR lines per hour, and I just can& ...

Hello. I have just edited my first 5 VR reports ever. It seems like ther must be a more efficient way to do it than what I was doing. Every time I needed to make a change, I had to stop the recording and manually move my cursor to the right place. I wish the Word cursor moved along with the dictation. I'm sure this must be a learning curve thing. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! ...
