I use speech recognition in Word 2003 Student edition. Can't seem to see it
in Word 2007 Student Edition.
Any help locating or activating it?

Hey Happy:

I had the very same frustration finding out that MS removed the speech
recognition feature from the Office suite. I sent a letter to Microsoft and
to my great delight they sent me a response the next working day!
I don't know what your system configuration looks like or how comfortable do
you feel tinkering with your Operating System but they did send me a couple
of links so I could instal the Speech Recognition application on my computer.
I am including those instrucions with the links and see how comfortable you
feel with it.
I think that this is better than nothing and I myself do enjoy tweking my
system in order to improve it. Best of luck....Hector

...."Please first go to the following link to download and install speech
engine:

Speech SDK 5.1
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

After that, please refer to the following link to learn how to use speech
recognition.

Please let me know the results at your earliest convenience."

I don't know why Jay is suggesting you buy something instead of trying to
instal the application for yourself if you wanted to.
Also to my very big surprize was a whole website from Microsoft just
dedicated to speech recognition with its own magazine subscription .
As I said before I wish you the best of luck

I have XP pro on a laptop. The speech engine is there and configured.
However I can't work out how to enable the speech recognition in Word 2007.
There doesn't seem to be a speech tab anywhere.

The answers here so far have been far to cryptic for me to follow.
