Hi Ariane,
You are looking in the wrong place. Go to tools and then options.
Now, navigate to the "hotkeys" tab. My bad, I told you to go to "commands"
earlier.
Tab to the first item that says "microphone on off".
Hit the spacebar on this and then hit the print screen key.

Subject: [j-say list] mapping pause key in Dragon
Hello pranavI'm having a problem locating the command that might work for
the "pause on/off " ke and assign it to the print screen key.
From the system tray I located the dragon menue, represented by the "TURN
MICROPHONE OFF" title, then I went to tools, options, and first found BROWSE
COMMANDS".
I tried to use the "wake up command in desperation., which was announced as
"wake up", value.
Then I press the space bar , and then the print screen key. It did not
seem to activate anything.
Then I tried to go into the other options that could allow the original
defaults, be changed and could not get past the first page.
The manual said to press the tab key five times and then the Aero key to
advance to the next page but I could not get it to work.
Have I been looking in the wrong area?
I did a search for this on the Internet, and ended up on the dragon site.
They had a blog conversation which seemed to suggest that the cleanest way
to remap the key for use in the pause on/off, was to change the registry.
There was also a reference to a small program that would assist in
accomplishing this task. Called "sharp keys" which I might try using with
some assistance, if it's not too complicated.
Some of the bloggers suggested problems switching the pause key because it
is a three bit key, which is less common than a so called "2 bit" key.
This is all getting way beyond my technical bravery.
I appreciate everyone's help, and I will report back if I am successful
later this weekend.
