 Say list all windows then say (or press) the number of the desired window. Note: particularly if many

windows are open, you may wish to specify an application: say list windows for <application>, for

instance: list windows for Internet Explorer.

 Say “switch to” followed immediately by the name of the desired application, folder, or document:

e.g., switch to DragonPad, switch to Lotus Notes, switch to My Computer, switch to DragonBar,

switch to winter projects.

 Say switch to next window as many times as necessary to cycle through all the open windows (this is

equivalent to pressing Alt +Tab).

 Say switch to previous window to go back to the previously active window.

“Clicking” Menus and Controls

To "click" on an application menu or submenu, just say its name -- preceded by the word “click” or not (see

below). For instance, for a menu labeled Insert, say Click Insert or just say Insert. (The application must have

the focus, which you can usually tell by the appearance of its title bar.)

When accessing a submenu, pause briefly after the name of the menu. For instance, to see the available

toolbars in applications like Word 2003, you can say View (pause) Toolbars, and to save a file under a certain

name, you can say File (pause) Save As.

TIP To close an open menu, you can just say cancel or press Escape (just like pressing the Esc key at the top

left of your keyboard.)

If you use Office 2007, familiarize yourself with the “Ribbon” and its ScreenTips (revealing the item’s name),

Quick Access Toolbar, and KeyTips (the new display of keyboard shortcuts). Note: Dragon’s command to click

the Office Button (the equivalent to the File menu of earlier Office versions) is "Office button".

With Office 2010, Microsoft introduced some changes to the applications’ interface – in particular, it

introduced the File Tab. The other tabs can be accessed by voice by just saying their name, but for the File

Tab you must say “file tab” (or “click file tab”.) For details on Dragon 11’s support for Office 2010, please
