Hey CPians,
I know at least one other of the 8,318,865 of us must have been fans of Pantera and/or The Beatles so I didn't' want today to go by without mentioning that this is the deathversary of both of those guys.
They both came to rock, and indeed they both did rock ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

heheh I like how while Tim is peeing on Jet's bike he's also making his own puddle of piss to stand in...
So the moral that we're to take from this is if Tim, Wim and Els had just peed on grandma then grandma wouldn't be crying right now...?! ...er... um.... but....

I am writing a program of my own and I’m going to need to do documentation soon. To make that faster I enabled windows speech recognition because when it doesn’t make mistakes speech recognition is much faster than typing. However, at this point the accuracy rate is appalling. In fact it seems lower than a program I owned 10 years ago put out by IBM called Via Voice. However, Via Voice had you do about ½ hour of voice training for it and Microsoft doesn’t. Since all the voice recognition programs learn your voice over time and since little training was done with the Microsoft I suspect it will get better with time.
So has anybody used it before and does it get much better? Has anybody used dragon before and the windows version and tell me which one is better? And just out of curiosity how well does Siri work?
And just for kicks and giggles I will to write this same thing over again without making error corrections.

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.

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
