Word expander programs?? - Kelly
Posted: Oct 09, 2012
I have Word 2010 and that's what I use to work in but the autotext is awful. I used to be able to type my shortcut and it would automatically pop up when I pressed the spacebar but now with 2010 I have to hit enter which just slows me way down. Also they used to be able to be captilized or not depending on what I typed it in but now, whatever case I save it in is what it comes up as.
It's just a pain and I am slowed way down. Does anyone know a good downloadable word expander that is compatible with Word 2010?
you can customize your word autotexts... - sm
[ In Reply To ..]You can tell word to use any key instead of "enter". Go into the autotext tools to customize its behavior. Also, remember that autotext and autocorrect perform different functions. You need to use the utility properly.

Anyway To "backdoor" The Use Of Word Expander Programs
Mar 10, 2010
Working for years as an independent contractor, it was always up to the individual transcriptionist to utilize an expander if she/he desired to do so. Some of us pick up acute care hospital work on the side. Most hospitals in this day and age issue each transcriptionist a PC from the hospital that connects to the hospital's VPN (virtual private network). Keeping that in mind, many of the expander programs that we independent contractures use/used CANNOT be loaded onto the PC's th ...
Changing Expander Programs
Aug 11, 2011
Hope everyone is having a good Thursday. I was wondering if anyone knew any way of converting an IT glossary to make it work in shorthand. Unfortunately, I had to upgrade my computer to Windows 7, and IT V Pro will not work with Windows 7. I had received my IT as a gift MANY years ago, and so do not qualify for the upgrade price, and am not in a position to pay the nearly $200 dollars right now to buy the new version. PC Shorthand has a monthly pay deal, where it is only ...
