Is that without using J-Say and just using JAWS and DNS.

Jeffrey,

I have experimented with DNS 10 and have been very favorably impressed. The 
speech recognition out of the box without training was remarkably good. I was 
able to dictate a few test e-mails with surprisingly good results. However, 
there is a steep learning curve to master this feature rich program. The 
program is  cheap - I was able to buy it from Nuance on a promotion for around 
$50. If you are willing to make the investment and devote time to the learning 
process, it might work for you. As of now, I can't afford the time to use it 
consistently, but that may not be true for you.

HTH,
Pat

Hi Jeffrey,

I've never used DNS with Jaws, but I did have some success with the built in 
speech recognition in Windows Vista, using System Access.

I'm in my early sixties and between contact sports when young and sighted and 
decades of copious typing, I fear that I have developed arthritis in my hands.  
I'd like to use Dragon.  The party line from FS is that one can only do it with 
Dragon Professional and the T and T consultancy intermediate program.  I 
believe that I have heard one or two on this list say that they use Dragon 
Naturally Speaking directly with jaws.  I'd be grateful for any feedback on 
this issue
