Ed,
 
We tried correct that and all of the choices were Email Jake Wilson or 
something close to that.  Should we spell out the written form in the 
correction box i.e. jwilson@xxxxxxx?  For now, because of Outlook's 
autocomplete, just saying Jake Wilson in the To field works quite nicely.  
 
On the second issue, we tried saying Spell and then quickly spelling out the 
word we wanted to put in the Find dialog, but got similar results in that the 
Spell box would go to the Taskbar or make the Find dialog go away altogether.

Harris- 

 

Issue 1. Try a 'correct that' after email jake wilson shows up in the to 
line...if the my words utility has added this with a spoken form it should show 
as one of the choices; and the issue is a matter of 'reprioritizing' the phrase 
for Dragon.  On the other hand if it's not in the choice list we'll want to 
revisit.

 

Issue 2. You may want to try express spelling instead of calling the spell box 
and see if it behaves differently.

Hello,

 

Thanks to all who responded on the last issues.  Just read them now and will be 
trying with my client tomorrow.  Here are two more.

 

Again, running Vista Business and Office 2007 with JSay 6.  This one concerns 
the My Words utility.  We've been creating contacts in Outlook's Contacts and 
then doing Confirm that which brings up the My Words.txt and adds the 
appropriate line.  We reboot the computer and I check the My Words.txt and see 
that it has the correct syntax.  When we compose a new email and say Email Jake 
Wilson in the To field it writes 'Email Jake Wilson' in the To field instead of 
putting in the email address jwilson@xxxxxxxx  Any suggestions?  It seems that 
just having the contact in Outlook is almost good enough as you can just say 
Luke Wilson in the To field and the autocomplete picks it up quite nicely as 
long as you've said that email address at least once.

 

The second issue concerns the Find from Top or Find from Here and using the 
Spell utility to insert a word into the Find field.  When you bring up Find 
from Top or Find from Here and say Spell, the Spell dialog often goes right to 
the Taskbar and you have to switch to next Window to bring it up.  When you 
spell out a word and say confirm that, the Spell box goes away and it also 
sends the Find dialog away.  Any suggestions?

 

many thanks,

 

Harris
