Re: speech function on 2007

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi Darthal,

Windows Vista includes a dictation capability that works with Word, but the Windows team has not provided an update to the speech
capabilities for Windows XP (not sure that they will at this point).

Third party products such as those from http://nuance.com will work in either Windows version.
