MS Access Dictation

[spaLOGICng]

Hi,

To the best of my understanding, MS has NOT added any Dictation ability to Access as it has for Word and Outlook.

Has anybody ever implemented a 3rd party Dictation Add-in for MS Access? If so, can you reply with link(s) to source?

Much thanks!

Although not officially supported in Access or Excel, dictation is perfectly possible in long text (memo) field controls.
I've used it a number of times, primarily to read in fairly long sections of text from a printed source.

I gave a short demonstration of this as a small part of my YouTube video:

The relevant section starts at 02:21

Dictation isn't practical in other controls such as short text fields

EDIT:
I wouldn't bother with a third party utility until you have at least tried the built-in Windows dictation tool

The only time I tried a third-party tool was using Dragon Dictate in the days of Office 97.
I purchased it just before having a sinus operation and spent some time getting my computer to reliably recognise my voice whilst signed off work & recuperating.

Stupid idea! Once I had recovered fully , my voice sounded completely different to the computer . . . so it no longer worked well and I totally lost interest in using dictation for about 20 years.
