Well, it is amazing - but - I typed "speech recognition" into the search box
and - WALLA - up came the program and various o0ptions to set it, the
microphone and whatever up.
I do like W7 as it does have some really neat features.
Now, I am awaiting a good version of JAWS 12. JAWS 11, latest build, seems
to be working pretty well.

I can't tell you how to set it up or anything, I've never used it.

But, in the control panel there is something called "speech". Hit enter on 
that and you come up with a dialog  that has two pages. One is for speech 
recognition, and the other is for text-to-speech settings.

Hope this helps.
Bob
