Note: The syntax of XML command files is defined by a document type definition (DTD) file

that resides on the Nuance web site. When you import an XML command file, the application

gives you the option of validating the syntax of the XML file against the DTD. The validation step

is useful if you receive a XML command file from another person and want to check it for syntax

errors prior to importing it.

1. Open the

Command Browser

and click the

Manage

button.

2. Expand and select the appropriate item (for example,
