Number sign and listing in ASR - Twiggy


Posted: Jan 28, 2010

In ASR I was told that when there is a list (docs usually say "next number"...) and the machine puts the # sign, that the "system would automatically make a numerical list, converting the # sign to an actual number".:

#....

#....

#...

One one report I had a report that had #, about three or four of them and I sent it through.  I got negative feedback, because I had left the # in and didn't type out the number.  Yet on others, nothing ever came back! 

Which is correct?

 

ASR doesn't work the way - they say it does

never trust it...make sure it looks rights before sending it. You'll have to renumber it yourself.

For sure, I ALWAYS re-number. nm - Newatthis

Last I heard, that was something for the near future. When my dictations come up with the # they never change. Is there any key strokes you use to make that happen?

Set Number Of Reports
