Dear Michael, Diann, and Stephen, Thanks! I'm glad to see this project pulling together so smoothly. I spoke with our office manager Cynthia. We'll pull together and sort our test versions of Workers' Compensation, Social Security, and Personal Injury closed files for ScanFiles. In the meantime, Cyn...

Dear Ms. Brill,

You are correct. I searched for "hisher" rather than "his/her".

I'm happy to say the codes have become more powerful and useful over the years. I'm looking forward to a help file update on the current codes and their uses.

Dear Ms. Brill, I think I may have found a solution. Check out http://www.appellsoftware.com/forum/read.php?1,1105,1105#msg-1105 It talks about using the > (forum posting from 2002-2004). On a related subject, I've found that you can make excellent use of the forums though the "Search" feature. Type...

Dear Mr. Berry, I think I can help out with (1) and (3). Note: For letters I'd strongly suggest reading over the help files in A1-Law plus using a range of free numbers (maybe 8000-8200 if that is free) to create/copy test letters for practice.

Dear Michael, After a very productive hour-long Secretarial meeting, our office came to the realization that we haven't setup good training/standardization/examples for various situations in regards to our rolodex. For example: We have multiple entries for the same person. Different people are enter...

Dear Michael, In regards to 1-4 above, what would happen if you didn't do the prep work beforehand? What if you just sent off the documents to a company like Scanfiles, who then named them "5000-1.pdf", "5000-2.pdf", and "5000-3.pdf", etc. When imported with Scan Tracker, would that create problems ...

Dear Michael, Thank you very much for the detailed answers to my questions. I please need some further clarification. I. > I'm still confused how this works. So say hypothetically you have Case# 5000 (that has 25 current case activity entries) and you have 3 different sections being scanned into ind...

Dear Michael, Thank you very much for the information. I feel the posting deserves to be added to the "Articles" area since it's an important component for offices like ourselves working toward "paperless". I please need your assistance with some additional questions. 1. Is the number that is given ...
