Yup, you read that right. With Vista+Office 2k7+Office Scout+Voice Recog Macro, you can actually order your machine to do what you want it to. I had previously blogged about ‘Scout’ Office 2007 Commands. Now using this on your Office 2k7 and Speech Recognition Macros can talk to your Office 2k7. Here is what you do:
- Install Office Command Search. (Link below)
- Install the Speech Recog Macro. (Link Below) (Requires Validation)
- Download the SearchCommands.WSRmac zip file
- Un-archive it to your Documents\Speech Macros folder.
- Right click on SearchCommands.WSRmac and select Sign Speech Macros.

NOTE:
- I have NOT tested this.
- Works in Excel, Word & PowerPoint
- It for now works with Vista, may work with XP.
- The Speech Recog requires validation of your Windows copy.
