The only way to use the Stedman's Spellcheck is to click on the "W" (for Word) icon just above the transcription box. It takes the document into Word where you use F7 to run the spell check.
If you are new to Emdat and have one of the most recent versions of it, you can trust their spell check. I find it as reliable as Stedman's since they have upgraded it recently. You may have to tweak a few things, especially grammar, but the medical terminology base is very good.
A word of caution...just because you have Word available to run spell check, I advise against using it to transcribe in or format in it. Word attachs hidden codes that pull into Emdat that can lock up your computer and cause you to lose production time (I have BTDT with this issue). I highly recommend Emdat's new spellchecker and I'm a die hard Stedman's fan.

Thanks for your reply...I hate to hear that. I am supposedly using the latest version of Emdat and I don't find the spell check to be all that great. I've been adding words as I go along though. Maybe I need to spend some more time with it though. Thanks again for your answer!! :-)

Emdat Inscribe Help Jul 20, 2010I just started a job using Emdat Inscribe, and my footpedal I ordered hasn't come in yet, so I have been using the function keys to play audio. I have been doing this for about a week now with no problem, but today I log in to work though and the keys are no longer working. The only way I can get the audio to play is by using the mouse. Anyone know why this may be? I haven't changed any of the settings, so I am not sure why they won't work now.
