After experiencing problems with the Vianeta shorthand program, I was told that my Instant Text was in conflict.

There is no conflict between Instant Text and Vianeta. There are a number of IT user using IT with Vianeta and one of the pioneers was Rennie.

There is another reading of your message which is "Can Instant Text and Shorthand run at the same time without conflicting with each other?"

The answer to that question is certainly no. The reason is obvious: If you are asking two different tools to do the same thing, the result will be unpredictable because there is no way to know in which order they are going to work.

An autocorrect/quickcorrect type of feature is best for converting bun to BUN; adn to and; patietn to patient, etc., but I rely heavily on Instant Text for phrases.

Instant Text can certainly do both. One suggestion is to convert your AutoCorrect and "include" the resulting glossary into you other glossaries.
