What happened to the Speech Recognition Tool in Office 2007 -
What happened to the Speech Recognition Tool in Office 2007 - I spent the
better half of tonight trying to find it - including the MS Website - I am going to be so upset to have spent this much money on the new 2007 Suite and wind up losing more than what I have "gained" with the new version! |

speech recognition is now part of the OS and is included in Windows Vista. There are very many improvements in the speech engine over previous versions.

So, if you still have XP & purchased Office 2007 Suite - but don't have VISTA
- then you are basically screwed - right? That really sux! But thanks for replying and letting me know - I may just uninstall and go back to my Office XP - at least until I get me a new computer - this has been the biggest headache!

Of course you're screwed. This is Microsoft you're talking about. That's
what they're good at. "chrisbee65" wrote in message ... So, if you still have XP & purchased Office 2007 Suite - but don't have VISTA - then you are basically screwed - right? That really sux!

Hi Pat,
From some early testing, the method described will install the speech basic tools in \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft\Speech, but, if I recall correctly it only partially worked if you don't have a prior Office Edition installed, allowing you to dictate text, but you couldn't naviagate the ribbon or use Word voice commands for formatting, but it's been awhile since I disabled it again (it does make a difference in the speed of the app g). Using http://nuance.com seems to be a more stable choice. =========== "Pat Garard" apgarard-bigpond:net:au wrote in message ...

Hi Bob,
I sometimes use the writing recognition - I have a USB graphics pad for other reasons. The speech recognition I did play with, but often gave bizarre results. Is the Dragon that much better? -- Regards, Pat Garard Melbourne, Australia _______________________ "Bob Buckland ?:-)" 75214.226(At Beautiful Downtown)compuserve.com wrote in message ...
