Using natural commands
You can say natural commands only if the particular command set is enabled
for Microsoft Word. The natural commands for Word are enabled when you
select the command set. Follow these instructions to enable the command set.
1. From the ViaVoice menu, select User Options.
2. Click ViaVoice Options, and select the Commands Sets tab.
3. Select the Word Natural Commands check box. If you plan to dictate in
Word, also select the Word Dictation check box.
4. Click OK to save the changes and close ViaVoice Options.
Natural commands for Word can be used to do the following:
v Open, close and save documents
v Print and Print preview
v Check spelling and grammar
v Find and replace words
v Undo and redo
v Create tables
v Select text or tables
v Move text or the cursor
v Cut, copy, paste or delete text
v Format and highlight text
v Align text and set line spacing and indentation
Keep the following in mind as you use natural commands:
v A natural command consists of a single action. Do not combine two actions
into a single command; for example, do not say Computer move the cursor
to the beginning of the second paragraph and make the next three words
bold. Instead, say "Computer move the cursor to the beginning of the
second paragraph", then say "Computer make the next three words bold".
v Use Word terminology when composing your command. Do not use extra
words like Please or I want to—ViaVoice will not understand what to do.
Use only word-processing terms.
v Every time you press Enter or say "New Paragraph" in your Word
document, Word inserts a paragraph marker and counts this as a
paragraph. To see your paragraph markers, select
on the Microsoft
Word Standard toolbar.
When you say "Computer select the first three paragraphs", and you have
a paragraph marker between paragraphs of text, ViaVoice will select the
first paragraph, the empty line and the second paragraph.
