Default How to make a word start with a Capital letter when dictating?

This is a question, not a suggestion. Have you tried dictating the word
"Caps" or "Capital"? I can't find anything in the Help files to suggest that
this would work, but it's worth a try. I suspect that Word will capitalize
automatically at the beginning of a sentence (that is, after you've dictated
a period or "dot") and will capitalize words that you've entered in its
vocabulary as proper nouns. Beyond that, you may have to do this manually
when you go back to edit your dictation.

Please tell me how to specify that the next word should start with a

letter while I am dictating in Word 2003. Help is silent on the issue, so

is
the Knowledgebase. Has the idea not occurred to the brilliant minds at
Microsoft?to
