Hi all,

Whenever I use the command "start Microsoft outlook 2003", I find that even
though outlook starts, the macros that I have defined do not show when I
invoke the macros dialog box using alt+f8.

However, if I use the keyboard, to start Microsoft outlook, the macros do
show.  By using the keyboard, I mean, pressing enter on the " Microsoft
outlook 2003" shortcut in the Microsoft Office 2000 three program group.
I am not sure whether this is related, but if I use the "start outlook"
command from the desktop, the taskbar  or anywhere else, it does not work.
The only case in which it does work is when I use this command from an
application such as Microsoft Word or notepad.  When I say that the command
is not working, what happens most of the time is that it minimises the
application and invokes the start menu.  I am told that Microsoft outlook is
starting and I must wait but, no matter how long I wait, nothing happens.

Operating system equals windows XP professional (all updates applied)
Dragon NaturallySpeaking version = 9.5
J-say version = 5.1

Pranav
