Speech recognition to hit MS Office

Updated 6:12 PM ET August 8, 2000

by Mary Jo Foley, ZDNet News

Tech gets a voice: New capability to debut
in Beta 1 of Office 10, Microsoft's update
to its Windows desktop applications suite,
which is expected in 2001.

Microsoft has notified testers that it has
officially launched Beta 1 of the next version
of Microsoft Office for Windows, code-named Office 10.

Microsoft is adding new features to all of the
applications that make up its desktop suite,
according to testers. But the most noticeable
change toOffice 10 will be the addition of speech capabilities.

Word 10 is being enabled with speech to handle
both voice dictation and command-and-control
scenarios, testers said.

Office 10 is the successor to Office 2000 for
Windows -- expected to ship next year -- and
is expected to be a fairly minor upgrade on the
way to Office.Net, the company's next major
version of Office.

According to Microsoft's .Net roadmap, Office.Net
is due to ship some time in the 2002+ time frame.
