Custom Grammar

Once I have defined the custom grammar that I am going to use, is there a way 

Hi Bret,

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "train the Speech Engine as there is

with the default grammar".  If your using a desktop recognizer and the 
speaker's recognition profile has adptation turned on, the system will adapt 
to the speaker's voice even when using your grammar.

If you want to use the training UI to train to a specifc text or list of 
words, that possible, too. You'll need to create a training text file.  Each 
"pane" of training text in the UI corresponds to each line of text in
the 
training file.  So if I wanted to train the system using the words
"foo", 
"bar", and "baz".  I'd first create a file that looks like
this:

<start of file>
foo
bar
baz
<end of file>

(Don't acutally included the stuff in angle brackets.)  Once you've created 
your training file the easiest way to train with it is to use the Reco.exe 
sample program that's part of the SAPI SDK.  I think the SDK inlcudes a 
compiled binary you can run, but it also has the source code so you can 
build it yourself.

After you start up Reco.exe here are the steps to take for training:
    1. Select the Inpro radio button.
    2. Click the Create Recognition Context checkbox.
    3. From the menu bar select Dictation->Train from file.
    4. Use the file selection dialog to load your training text file.

Once you've selected your training text the User Training UI will open and 
then you use it like you normally would.

You can also this ability to your own program.  To do so use the 
SpRecognizer::DisplayUI method passing it the SPDUI_UserTraining flag and a 
string that containts the training text.   See 
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms718586(VS.85).aspx and 
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms717316(VS.85).aspx for the 
details.  And have a look at the Reco code that's in the SAPI SDK to see 
exactly how it does this.

I hope this tells you what you wanted to know.

Steve,

Is it possible to train using the .NET 3.0 API and the System.Speech 
namespaces?
