Voice to Text

Suzanne Waithaka

Does, or can, Access support talk to text for data entry? I have a user who is a horrendous speller and uses talk to text for almost everything else. I use combo boxes as much as possible to limit the need for typing, but somethings just can't be done with a combo box.

If you can type into Word with it, you should be able to type into Access with it. I have some users who use tablets for car inspections and they take notes with the built-in text to speech. I would think other voice-to-text apps would be able to use it as well.

Just use Windows' built in Speech Recognition.

I have used Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 15, to dictate into Microsoft access at seems to work very well along with all of the other office products that seems to be more accurate at times than the other programs it would have built the microphone into I hope this has been some help.
