I'm looking for some information regarding voice recognition in visual programming environments. I'm a DragonDictate user and have had a very difficult time getting Dragon to work effectively in VB. I'm stuck with writing my all of my own macros and training many words. I've been looking at IBM's ViaVoice products because they seem to offer many add-on products for programmers including libraries for Java, C++ and VB. Any experiences anyone can share with me about this situation would be truly appreciated! Also, I'm trying to find out if DragonDictate and ViaVoice can coexist on my machine. If so, I'll use ViaVoice for all of my coding and Dragon for everything else. I even do my mainframe programming with it but it doesn't work well at all in more visual programming environments.
