I've been using voice recognition software (DragonNaturallySpeaking) for several months because of tendinitis in mywrists andforearms.  It works pretty well with SolidWorks2006.  Ican say "File, new" or "Tools, dimensions, smart" or"Insert, cut,extrude" and the menus work just the same as if I wereclicking onthem.

But I just installed 2008 (never used 2007), andnothingworks.  Most verbal commands just turn on aselectionfilter.  I have made the menu titles (File, Edit,Insert etc.)permanently visible, and that should make them respondwhen I saythe name.  But they don't.  This sucks.

Is anybody else using voice recognition software?  Haveyoufound a way to make it work with 2008?  Unless there'sasolution, I guess I'll stick with 2006 until the rest of my labison 2008, and then I'll have to quit because we won't be abletoshare files.  I'm sure as hell not going to letSolidWorkscripple me any worse than it has done already.
