So sorry if this has already been covered but how well does the speech recognition work with JAWS out of the box i.e. without something like J-Say? For me to be able to try it I'm going to have to buy a headset and don't want to do that unless I know it works pretty well. What are the limitations? Are there any important bits that JAWS doesn't read? Do you get feedback as it inputs the text?

Hi, Unless I have missed something I have not seen either how to find the speech recognition in W7 or the key combination to get it going. This really does sound like something I could use.

Hello Friends, I have a XP-Home machine running JAWS 11 latest, and I would also like to know that myself! I got the feature up and running accidentally and it startled me so much I closed it! LOL! But I would like to experiment with it! So if some kind person can tell me how to bring the voice recognition up in XP, I would appreciate it!

Xp has this funktion but it doesn't work half as good as win7s, it also doesn't have the ablitty to learn like win7. -original message- Subject: Re: Jaws&speech recognition? From: "Alan Dicey" <adicey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: 27/01/2011 14:58 Hello Friends, I accidentally hit a key combination the other day, I am using XP-Home and JAWS 11. I swore, before I in panic, did an Alt F4 to shut it, it said something about Speech recognition. Does XP or JAWS 11 have a similar program built in? Never heard of it before, but, no I did hear it.

I was playing with the program last night. once I got my microphone setup, I was able to, 1, speak to my computer, and issue voice commands, such as, go to desktop, say such things as, Microsoft word, then jaws would read the icon, then I would say, enter, and yes? word would open, now, I can dictate text, and automatically the text would be on the screen. you can open, close save, with your voice. very interesting. -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.com JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.
