Just thought it would be funny to post the kinds of mistake Windows voice recognition makes if you don't correct the errors. Same message as above.
I am writing a program of my own and I’m going to need to do documentation to. To make that faster I enabled windows speech recognition because when it doesn’t make mistakes beat recognition is much faster than typing. However, at this point the accuracy of rate to Spalding. In fact it seems slower than a program I own 10 years ago put out by IBM called be a voice. However, be a voice had you do about ½ hour of voices reading for it and Microsoft does that. Since all voice recognition programs learn your voice over time and since little training was done with Microsoft I suspect it will get better time.
So has anybody used it before and it doesn’t get better question and just out of curiosity how well does see rework question
And just for kicks and giggles I will break the same thing over again without making air corrections.

 It didn't actually do too too terribly bad for the most part...
It sure didn't know what to do with "Via Voice" but apparently it had no problems with "Microsoft"!
Good post. Keep us appraised of its progress as it gets more familiar with your voice...

It's actually improving I think because the first letter I tried to write with it it would frequently get every single word of an entire sentence wrong. Actually I didn't expect it to get Via Voice right even though I tried to add it to the dictionary but if you look closely it made a lot of mistakes. Funniest one I think was appalling became Spalding  .
If this thing doesn't improve I will probably try dragon but I'll let you know how it goes.

I used Dragon Naturally Speaking more then 10 years ago and I must admit that I was highly impressed by its accuracy. It was exceptional and way ahead if its time, much better than today's voice recognition programs. The only thing where it lagged behind was when it came to recognizing numbers. I would rate it 95/100 for word recognition and 60/100 for number recognition.

Thanks for the info. If the windows stuff doesn't improve rapidly I'll probably buy that. Thanks.

I use Dragon myself, and it works wonders. I tested Windows Speech system and Dragon's, and found a lot of errors with Windows' system, even after several hours! The error rate seemed to go UP with Windows!
Dragon, though, went straight down in error rates.

I'm writing the next installment in my article series on relationship oriented programming (no link included because this is NOT a plug for my article) and I REALLY want to be able to use the DevExpress grid control because it works so much nicer with a DataSet - the .NET grid control sucks, for example, not being able to drill down into child records - everything I've seen googling for this has examples of using two or more separate data grids, WTF?
So, any objections?
What say you, Chris? CPians?

There is a trial version so if you can make your article work with that, I reckon it should be allowed. But what would I know, I'm banned from coding.

That's my thinking. Still, people might resent installing DevExpress. And then there's the issue of distributing the DLL's so at least the EXE can run. I should ask DevExpress.

I don't know if they still do (and am too lazy to check on your behalf  ) but they used to do a free controls suite. If they still do and your code will work with that then I would suggest that this would be the answer.

Last time I checked the GridControl wasn't included in the free control suite

Your article is more on content as opposed to how the content is displayed therefore I'd say
it would be your choice.

Don't agree with that Mike.
You or I might be able to adjust but a noob cut'n'paster probably wouldn't be able to.

It's the concept you're teaching not the UI. This was a trick question anyway cause there is
no right answer. Some will gleen from the content and some want a package they can just, as you
cut'n'paste. Guess I'm one of them that former.

Or make the DataGridView so that it can display child rows/tables. That would be a nice article on itself (and I always wondered how DevExpress does it)

I actually accomplished this once. It was not quite as fancy as theirs but it got the job done. My issue was that I couldn't make it work right past one level relationship ie...
parent -> child was fine
parent -> child -> child didnt do as well.

As a random reader I wouldn't install any additional libraries, in order to compile and execute sample code, but if article is good enough, I don't mind that.

It is just going to limit your audience to the subset who are willing to install the 3rd party tools. Personally, unless there was a really compelling reason, I would not download your article. Even getting the freebie controls usually puts you into some marketing gits database and I have enough crap installed on my machine as is!

I often receive email to my Gmail account from my own email id. Gmail shows the sender as "me" and the sender's email id is my exact email address. They usually pertain to cheap drugs or cheap Rolex watches, etc. I usually do not care about it but recently I have started worrying about if it possible for someone to use my email id to send an email to someone else? (without my password, of course. I know anyone can do it if they have my password)

Some years back, after a colleague and I enabled our software to send email, we had endless minutes of fun sending each other email from "George@WhiteHouse.gov" (or some such).

with code at least, its very easy to send an email that shows any "from" address I wish. Password does not matter the least bit.

As others have already suggested, spoofing an email address is very easy.

Very easy - my son was expecting a letter from Santa a couple of years back that never showed so I sent him an email from santa@northpole.com. All was well again

Santa has joined the 21st century n started emailing huh...
