I have this same problem with DragonDictate 2.52.
Dragon Systems support tells me the problem is caused
by some third party software that I installed (i.e.
the "MS Power Toys") which changes the structure of
the Start Menu. There is nothing that can be done
to resolve this problem.
Therefore, the workaround that I use is to name
the items/shortcuts on my Start Menu so they end
with a numeric value which represents how many
"up arrows" are needed to execute the shortcut.
For example, my Start Menu contains shortcuts
like the following:
Eudora-3
MS Word-4
Netscape-5
So, I then dictate "Start Menu", "Move up 4", "Enter Key"
when I want to execute MS Word from my Start Menu.
I could also say "Start Menu", "Mike", "Enter Key" to
move the cursor to the "MS Word" shortcut because
it begins with the letter "M".
