A dictation-transcription method and system in which dictated material and instructions concerning the dictated material for use during the transcribing of the dictated material are separately recorded on a recording medium along with indexing signals which include indexing signals identifying the location on the recording medium of the separately recorded instructions concerning dictated material.
