At work my job involves, more and more, tedious indexing of documents in a database. My problem is that our IT dept. is so paranoid of security breaches, they won't let us edit our *known* mistakes; we have to sumbit our errors to them. This is frustrating and embarrassing to me, because, while I don't have bomb squad level accuracy and attention-to-detail, I am conscientious and proofread everything I submit, and now I can't.

Does anyone have any tips on how to bring my clerical (first and only pass) error rate down quickly from about 1% to, say, under 0.1%?

MIght I add that the (proprietary) software lacks basic data validation features.
