CHAPTER 9 Hands-Free Computing Starting programs You can use voice commands to start a program that appears anywhere on your Windows® Start menu or desktop. You can't start Dragon NaturallySpeaking® by voice, because the program has to be running before it can hear you. Starting a program from the Start menu To start a program from the Start menu, say "Start" and then the name of the program exactly as it appears on the menu or submenu (it doesn't have to be visible). For example, to start Microsoft® Internet Explorer®, say "Start Internet Explorer." To start a program: 1 Make sure that Dragon NaturallySpeaking® is running and that the microphone is on. 2 Say "Start" and then the name of the program. For example, say "Start WordPad." NOTE To start certain Windows® utilities, you must open and navigate the Start menu (see "Opening and closing menus" on page 105). These utilities are Shut Down, Log Off, Help, Run, Favorites, Find, and Settings. Starting a program from the Windows desktop To start a program on your Windows® desktop, just say "Start" and then the name below the icon. For example, to start Microsoft® Internet Explorer®, say "Start Internet Explorer." Say "Start Internet Explorer" TIP You can also open other desktop items with the "Start" command.
