This said ready to use right out of the box. I must be an idiot because I don't know how to start. The microphone works. I just want to use voice recognition for composing emails in Outlook,documents in Microsoft Word and maybe filling out forms. When I talk it types into the voice recognition box then disappears. Is there somewhere to learn this? I read through the commands and it opens programs, but I can't get it to type in them. Can someone help please?
@Carol_K To dictate in third party programs such as Microsoft Word, enable dictation mode by typing or saying "dictation mode on" (without quotes). Click on the microphone button. Place the mouse pointer in the document in which you want to dictate and start speaking to dictate.
