I have a different speech program that I installed and trained. How does installing the Microsoft Office speech recognition components affect that program?
If the third-party speech program uses a Speech API 5 engine that supports both Dictation, and Command and Control, the third-party speech program is supported in Office XP and Microsoft Office 2003. For example, Word 2003 turns off the third-party speech program if the third-party speech program supports either Dictation, or Command and Control, but not both. And, if the program is the default speech engine in Control Panel, this is also the case. If a non-Speech API 5 program controls the microphone when the operating system starts, speech recognition may not work because the microphone is not a resource that can be shared. Speech training that you completed in a different speech program can only be used in the Microsoft speech engine if the program is Speech API 5-compliant. If the program is Speech API 5-compliant, the speech training that you already completed can be used.
