You cannot download Word 2003/Office 2003 from anywhere, at least not
legally. You can purchase an Office 2003 CD and install Word 2003 from the CD. Word 2007/Office 2007 do not include the speech recognition features that Word 2003/Office 2003 do, but instead rely on whatever the operating system offers in this regard. wrote: I currently have word 2000.

word 200, 2003, 2007
I started using a trial version of 2007 in August for advanced Word & Excel
2007 classes. I lost my speech recognition functioning when I uninstalled 2003. To get speech back, I had to reinstall Word 2003, but now it constantly has to reconfigure 2007 about every 2nd or 3rd time I use it. Word 07 also crashes frequently. I find this terribly difficult, especially when I need speech recognition for all of the classes that I take (18 hrs. & working full time also!). Is there a way to just get the speech recognition back? "Graham Mayor" wrote: As 'g-n-o' already told you - you cannot download 2003 from anywhere legally. Certainly not from Microsoft. Nor can you 'upgrade' 2000 to make it 2003. You can only *replace* it with 2003 (or install it in a separate folder to have both on the PC, though in this case there would be no real point in doing so). If you have a legal copy of 2000, there may be price concessions for 'upgrading' to 2003. You can download the trial for 2007 - and 2007 does indeed have the text to speech function (not voice recognition which is something different) - http://www.gmayor.com/word_text_to_speech.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org wrote: Thank you, can I download the upgrade from Microsoft's website from my 2000 version to 2003?
