Mick,

My husband has used both IBM Via Voice and L&H Voice Xpress Professional.
Both require training but L&H claims that it requires less training then any
other Voice recognition program.  The advantage that L&H has is that it was
developed in conjunction with MS and allows you to control MS products by
voice, including Office 2000 products and IE.  My husband prefers L&H for
accuracy. L&H has acquired Dragon Naturally Speaking another speech
recognition program.  You can find out more information from
