I am using vb4 and win XP
After downloading the speech engine, SAPI 4.0 runtime, Speech recognition engines, and their source code examples for vb6 I can bring up the magician and make him talk.
I haven't installed the Speech recognition engine yet.
I hope this helps.
Click here if: The speech engines don't seem to work with Microsoft Agent in Windows XP? -
The text- speech works but the "phrase finish event "(in vcrvoice) is not able to capture my name. The string phrase(in the phrase finish event) returns a null string
-
): I have the same problem to that program, what can i do is I download the speech engine so my program works.
-
if there are no errors from the VB end, I'm afraid it must be a problem with the Microsoft agent bit, which I have no control over.....
All I can suggest is you double check everything is installed correctly, and that you check 'Speech' item in your Windows control panel -
Before the DirectSR1.SpeechFromGrammar code, put this:
dim engine
engine = DirectSR1.Find ("MfgName=Microsoft")
DirectSR1.Select engine
This assumes that you have the Microsoft speech engine installed on your system...

halo everybody,can anayone help me how to use speech recognition in visual basic!!!
my problem was:
1. In visual basic i create a "text box" that let the user type a "word" in English and create a "button" that
let the user click to reconize user voice?
2. After they type that word,they will click that "button" to recognize their voice though microphone.
3. After recognize, i want to compare their voice with that "word" wheter they speak correctly or not??
Really need all of your HELP!!Thanks to you..

hey pals,
we r doing a project for speech recognition..But alas our speech is not being recognisedby the system.While doing our project we found that our phrasefinish function is not been called.Can anybody help us??
Can you help with any coding.
Thanks a lot pals
bhuvana -
you can go to the www.microsoft.com to download the speech recognition.Inside go some sample code that may help you in your project!!

Hi,
I'm working on a VB application that already has several components. Basically, it is an application that contains several menus and different functions within each menu. I want to be able to speech activate each one of these menus and further, each individual function within them. How can I integrate Microsoft's Direct Speech Recognition Tool within the rest of the application?
Thanks -
This kind of speeh recognition sounds really cool, and I want to create a program for my family to use. Basically what they should be able to do is tell the computer what they want to start and speech recognition will recognise their voice and start up the program. Hopefully if I go one step further I will be able to make the computer have a conversation with them.
Anyway, my problem is that the computer will not say what I want it to. I've entered the code to make it say something and I've followed instructions carefully but still it won't work. Please can someone help becaues this kind of stuff is realy interesting. -
Im pretty new to a lot of VB- mostly these voice settings. I was wandering if anyone has found any good settings to make the playback voice sound better (right now he talks slow and low pitched.. i'd like to tune him up a bit
) -
I cant see the rest of the line on this picture
"click here to see it"
Please help i am just a beginer at Visual Basic and i cant make out what the rest of the line says.
More info:
It is the line that says "Private sub vcrvoice_PhraseFinish(ByVal flags as ??????????" -
You shouldn't need to - VB will add the definition of that procedure when you select it from the combo boxes at the top of the editor. The rest of the source code is given as text in the article.

How do i add new words and make the computer respond to them?
-
okay, so i got my program to talk, and after it asks what my name is, it simply wont respond with the "Hello [yourname]" part...
my code is identical to the sites.
although ONE thing didnt go as it should have... my spkSpeak does not have a phrasefinish event.. i had to manually type in phrasefinish.. could that be it?
any ideas? -
nevermind! i made the program at school, and tested it at home, and all works fine!.. since the components were different vb automatically deleted them, but i just replaced them with my own component i downloaded from microsoft.com and renamed them to spkspeak and so on,, and the program works!
now all i need to figure out is how to add other words.. -
hello
i tried in my system to recognize my command but failed in this aspect . i need to know why sir. i had installed every thing and components are seen in the system. sir do i have to speek in American accent.
plz help me
thanking u -
Hi,
I am rifat from bangladesh. For speech recognition first you need a good quality microphone, then try it in a silent place. do Your desktop contain any new microphone icon? If not your installation failled.
Send your comment?
Rifat -
seshutou, you can train it to understand your voice after a while (so you don't have to speak in an american accent).
to train, goto:
Control Panel > Speech, then click 'Train Profile'
hope this helps -
thanx alot . i'll try it
take care -
hello
can i know how to recognise an object . wat are the requirements . if it is in vb platform its superb .
thank u -
hii
go thru this steps , it may solve urs problem
Writing Your First Speech Recognition Program
Microsoft have been developing voice recognition for a few years now and they have a website specialize in that ( http://www.microsoft.com/speech ). In order to start programming voice command recognition, you must have Microsoft Speech Recognition Engine installed. To download a copy, visit this site ( http://www.microsoft.com ) to get it.
In the components Dialog select Microsoft Direct Speech Recognition to have the component available to your project. This option is only available if you have the Microsoft Speech Engine installed.
So let's start a project in Visual Basic. Select Standard EXE and when all the given codes and forms are loaded, go to Project \ Components. In the Components dialog, find and select the Microsoft Direct Speech Recognition Remember, this option is available only if you have the Microsoft Speech Engine installed. Now, an icon button that looks like an ear, yes an ear, should appear in the Toolbox bar (pic. 2), that is the Speech Recognition component. Click on the button and draw it out on the form. Now your form will have the DirectSR component icon and also shown in the code window DirectSR stands for "Direct Speech Recognition" and you guessed it, DirectSS stands for "Direct Speech Synthesis".
An Ear icon will appear in the toolbar representing the DirectSR component.
Now in the code window of the form with the DirectSR, select DirectSR on the top right pull down menu. Pull down the menu to the right of that and you can see the various methods, events and properties the DirectSR component provides. In this article the one DirectSR we will concern ourselves with is the PhraseFinish procedure. This is the procedure that will be called by DirectSR when it has finish processing a voice command.
With the Code Window Select DirectSR1 in top left pull down menu and select PhraseFinish in the top right pull down menu.
When you select PhraseFinish, the code that is put in place for you is the following:
Private Sub DirectSR1_PhraseFinish(ByVal flags As Long, _
ByVal beginhi As Long, ByVal beginlo As Long, ByVal endhi As Long, _
ByVal endlo As Long, ByVal Phrase As String, ByVal parsed As String, _
ByVal results As Long)
There's a lot of parameters you say. But don't be frightened, the one that we will need to be concern with is the Phrase parameter, this is the parameter string that will contain the recognized word that was processed by the DirectSR engine.
Now that we got that set up, we will have to input a set of words for the Speech Engine to recognize. The job is very simple, we just feed in the set of words during the Form's Onload procedure. But how do we do that you ask? Simple, DirectSR have two ways for you to feed the words in, they are DirectSR1.GrammarFromString which takes in a String variable that contains the words and DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile which takes in a file path to a file that contains the words in a text file. Simple enough? The method we will use is DirectSR1.GrammarFromString because this provides the greatest flexibility because you can dynamically add additional words to the engine and still add words in from a file like DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile by putting the text in the file into a variable.
In the Load function of the form input the following code:
Dim totaldata As String
totaldata = totaldata _
& "<start>=Notepad" & vbCrLf _
& "<start>=Volume" & vbCrLf _
& "<start>=Media Player" & vbCrLf
DirectSR1.GrammarFromString (totaldata)
DirectSR1.Activate
So this is how the string looks. For each line that contains a word, a tag "<start>=" is used to signify a word that follows for the DirectSR to recognize. In the sample code, three words are used, they are Notepad, Volume and Media Player. Guess what? Right, we will use these words for the voice command to load these programs. In addition, the DirectSR1.Activate is used to start the engine to begin recognizing voice commands. DirectSR1.Deactivate is used to stop the engine from recognizing voice commands.
We are almost set. All we have to do is return to the PhraseFinish procedure to parse the command. From here on is pretty simple, remember that the Phrase parameter is all we need to be concern about, well here is how we do it in the following code.
Dim sFile As String
Dim noth As Long
Select Case Phrase
Case "Notepad"
sFile = "\system32\notepad.exe"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", _
Environ("SystemRoot") & sFile, "", "", 1)
Case "Volume"
sFile = "\system32\sndvol32.exe"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", _
Environ("SystemRoot") & sFile, "", "", 1)
Case "Media Player:
sFile = "C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\mplayer2.exe"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", _
sFile, "", "", 1)
End Select
Here is the low down or lodown. When the DirectSR recognizes a sound, it will process the sound into a word that may closely match the one you provided. If it matches, the Phrase variable will contain the matched word. And lo and behold, the code we use is a Select Case just for the Phrase variable for the words we fed in the engine in the load function. When a match occurs we will use an API function ShellExecute() to load the program.
To declare the API put the following code on top of the form module.
Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" _
Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal _
lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal _
lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, _
ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As Long
The core of the sample is basically done, however, as you know, nothing is really done without some style with the GUI. Here is the plan, lets put a button on the form to stop the recognition engine and also to start the engine when its stopped. Also, lets put a label to show the status of the engine and the recognized word.
Place a label on the form. Next place a bottom on the form and double click on the button to open the code. Place the following code inside:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Select Case Command3.Caption
Case Is = "Disable"
DirectSR1.Deactivate
Command3.Caption = "Enable"
Labe11 = "Disabled"
Case Is = "Enable"
DirectSR1.Activate
Command3.Caption = "Disable"
Labe11 = "Ready"
End Select
End Sub
The code is straight forward. A select case to test the caption of the button. If Disable, Deactivate engine, set button caption to "Enable" and set the label caption to "Disabled". If Enable, Activate engine, set button caption to "Disable" and set the label capti -

Hello
i have made my programme do what it is supposed to do ,
open notepad
open volume
open media player
tried to make my programme open winamp.exe but does not acknowledge it
so i found out i had to add another line
eg.
"<start>=winamp" & vbcrtlf , something like that
but it does not work
even if i copy exactly like you did and change my name ,it does not work
please tell me where i am going wrong
thanks in advance
Robert -
here are some possible problems:
1. "winamp" could be a hard word for the computer to understand.
2. you are not specifying the full path to winamp.exe (maybe you could try ShellExecuteAPI) -
Hello
first off , thank you for your fast responce, really appreciate it
i have tried using everything from music - to amp , but i think my problem is the form_load execution for this command , because it wont except anything i put there..
eg : <start>win
would you mind showing me how to add winamp from scratch with the form_load section
thanks
Robert -
does the actual code from the tutorial work for you?
-
yes , it works very well thank you
i just cant or maybe dont know how to add new commands for it
please help
thanks
Robert -
it wont except my <start> statements , keeps telling "Expected Line Number, syntax error"
Help please
thanks -
could you post your complete code here (with grammar text), so i can help more.
-
hello again
well under my PhraseFinish i have the following code for my winamp
Case "Music"
sFile = "c:\Program Files\winamp\winampa.exe"
DirectSS1.Speak "Win Amp Is Loading"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", sFile, "", "", 1)
and under my form_load i have the following
Dim totaldata As String
'define configuration
'[Grammer], set language to english (1033)
'[<Start>], define the words we are looking for
totaldata = "[Grammar]" & vbCrLf & _
"langid = 1033" & vbCrLf & _
"type=cfg" & vbCrLf & _
"[<Start>]" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Memo" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Sound Settings" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=New Media" & vbCrLf
"<start>=Music" & vbCrLf
DirectSR1.GrammarFromString (totaldata)
DirectSR1.Activate
the problem i am getting is everytime i add a new word to look for it displays red and tells me "Expected Line Number"
it is like my programme is locked for only three phases
please help
thanks
Robert -
here's your problem:
"<start>=New Media" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Music" & vbCrLf
you need the text in blue to tell VB that your continuing it on the next line.
hope this helps. -
Thank You very much for all your help and support , it really helped me alot
thank you
Robert -
thanks for all your help as of yet
but i seem to have found another problem, i can only add 20 phrases and now it tells me no more
how do i get to add more phrases
please help
thanks
Robert -
try using GrammarFromFile instead of GrammarFromString... put the grammar in a file and use VB to load it. hope it helps
-
I thought about that and am busy trying it out , if you dont will inform on how well it is going
thanks for all your help
Robert -
i have tried to tell my Directsr1(the funny ear component) to acknowledge my file but it does not like my name no matter what i try
i even tried putting code for the file name but nothing would you mind telling where to put the code for the file
i know , i know i am asking for a shit load of help , but if you would not mind i would appreciate it
Thanks
Robert -
your welcome.
if you can't find out how to do GrammarFromFile after a trying, come back and i'll try to give an example. please post your code again, as that would speed everything up. -
i am trying and trying and no luck , i have put info into a text , database and a doc file , but when i attach it to my DirectSR1(funny ear jobby again)
it does not except it
DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile (c:\speech.txt))
DirectSR1.Activate
i know i am not doing it correcdtly to start but geez tried almost all the basic stuff and more but not getting the grammer file right
please help -
i have written over 50 words into a file called speech.txt
and i have changed the code as follows
on form_load
Dim totaldata as string
totaldata = "c:\speech.txt" & vbCrLf & _
"langid = 1033" & vbCrLf
DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile (totaldata)
DirectSR1.Activate
and the phrase section has stayed the same
but no go -
make sure this is the only code you have for loading:
Code: DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile ("c:\speech.txt")
DirectSR1.Activate -
One Last Question please, in the speech.txt file how should i list my phrases
just the words
eg
Music
New Media
Sound
or must i put the the shibang in
eg
<start>=New Media" blah blah
thanks -
Quote: <start>=New Media" blah blah
-you need that stuff. -
Hi , how you doin?
would have replied sooner but , got side tracked , last time we spoke you told me how to put the phrases into a file but cant get it right
all i have on my form load is
DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile ("c:\speech.txt")
DirectSR1.Activate
and in my file i have the following
"[<Start>]" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Memo" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Sound" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=New Media" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Music" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=User Control" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Options" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Shut Down" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Disable" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=View Logs" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=What Time Is It" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Time" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=What Is Today's Date" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Microsoft Word" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Microsoft Excel" & vbCrLf &
but it dont except nothing
please would you mind reading the above and see if you can find any problems within it
Thank you -
hi again,
you can't actually put VB code in the text file... try putting this in the textfile (remember to make sure the code in the PhraseFinish event recognises the commands too
).
[<Start>]
<start>=Memo
<start>=Sound
<start>=New Media
<start>=Music
<start>=User Control
<start>=Options
<start>=Shut Down
<start>=Disable
<start>=View Logs
<start>=What Time Is It
<start>=Time
<start>=What Is Today's Date
<start>=Microsoft Word
<start>=Microsoft Excel
hope this works now -

Hi,
This tutorial is a miracle for me, but when I tried to add a String in the grammar, it don't work, it open the VB directory ?!?
This is my code:
[arial] 'define configuration
'[Grammer], set language to French-1036 (1036 don't work so it's set to English-1033)
'[<Start>], define the words we are looking for
totaldata = "[Grammar]" & vbCrLf & _
"langid = 1033" & vbCrLf & _
"type=cfg" & vbCrLf & _
"[<Start>]" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Notepad" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Volume" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Media Player" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Solitaire" & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=" & opt1 & vbCrLf & _
"<start>=Close" & vbCrLf [/arial]
The "<start>=" & opt1 & vbCrLf & _ is the only way I find to add a regulary changed String, but it don't work. Can you explain me why? -
hi alex y is that this topic paste on the web cant be worked?

I read your tutorial in Voice Recognition. I followed it, but it doesn't work in my pc. then I also read your advise to seshutou; which was last year. below your advised.
"seshutou, you can train it to understand your voice after a while (so you don't have to speak in an american accent).
to train, goto:
Control Panel > Speech, then click 'Train Profile'
hope this helps "
I'm using windows 98 and I have installed Microsoft Speech Recognition 4.0. But when I open Control Panel>Speech>and click "Train Profile" there's nothing change. There's no window appear. What is your comment about it? Is my installation for Microsoft Speech Recognition is not completed? Or I must install something...?
Thanks!

i sit in INDIA, bangalore .. U know what the help what i got from this group helped me to complete my robot and there by fetch a fantastic job in Software Industry .. Ans as this job is my first job .. its really amazing
Thanks alot again

Hello,
I have tried all the steps as mentioned in the "Speech Recognition Program" but the things are not working.
on the form load the code is:
Private Sub Form_Load()
DirectSR1.GrammarFromFile App.Path & "\SpeechFile.txt"
DirectSR1.GrammarFromString (totaldata)
DirectSR1.Activate
End Sub
the file is placed in the application path & content of the file is as follows:
[<Start>]
<start>=Memo
<start>=Sound
<start>=New Media
<start>=Music
<start>=User Control
<start>=Options
<start>=Shut Down
<start>=Disable
<start>=View Logs
<start>=What Time Is It
<start>=Time
<start>=What Is Today's Date
<start>=Microsoft Word
<start>=Microsoft Excel
The code in "PhraseFinish" is as follows:
Private Sub DirectSR1_PhraseFinish(ByVal flags As Long, ByVal beginhi As Long, ByVal beginlo As Long, ByVal endhi As Long, ByVal endlo As Long, ByVal Phrase As String, ByVal parsed As String, ByVal results As Long)
If Phrase <> "" Then
Label1.Caption = "Matched word is " & Phrase
Else
Label1.Caption = "No word matched"
End If
Text1.Text = Phrase
End Sub
So, when i speak the words like Options, Sound, Disable, Time nothing is reflected in the textbox.
I do not get the option of "Control Panel > Speech" in my Control pannel. Hope this should not be the problem.
Hope you find something which will be a ray of hope for me. Thanks !!!!! -
I had the problem that it wouldn't respond, however I figured out that I hadn't changed the following line to my name "BumbleBee".
Const YOURNAME = "Alex 'You can replace this with your name"
to
Const YOURNAME = "BumbleBee"
Works like a charm now
Btw, I added another line that acknowledges that the program heard something even if it didn't understand what is being said.
Private Sub vcrVoice_PhraseFinish(ByVal flags As Long, ByVal beginhi As Long, ByVal beginlo As Long, ByVal endhi As Long, ByVal endlo As Long, ByVal Phrase As String, ByVal parsed As String, ByVal results As Long)
Select Case Phrase
Case Is = YOURNAME
spkSpeak.Speak "Hello " & YOURNAME
Case Is = "What year is it?"
spkSpeak.Speak Year(Date)
Case Else
spkSpeak.Speak "What did you say?"
End Select
End Sub
Thank you Alex for this awesome tutorial!!! -
I need help how can I get my text to speech engine to read spanish
-
i am doing a project on direct speech recognition . i found the code for my project on your website. in user comments i found some of them reply that this code is not working .
i would like to give some suggestions for it.i worked this code with a little modifications in my procedure.it worked
the code is:
Option Explicit
Private Declare Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" _
Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal _
lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal _
lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, _

Dim sFile As String
Dim noth As Long
Select Case phrase
Case "Notepad"
sFile = "\system32\notepad.exe"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", Environ("SystemRoot") & sFile, "", "", 1)
Case "Volume"
sFile = "\system32\sndvol32.exe"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", Environ("SystemRoot") & sFile, "", "", 1)
Case "Mediaplayer"
sFile = "\system32\mediaplayer.exe"
noth = ShellExecute(0, "OPEN", Environ("SystemRoot") & sFile, "", "", 1)
End Select
If phrase <> "" Then
Label1.Caption = "Matched word is " & phrase
Else
Label1.Caption = "No word matched"
End If
End Sub
1. add the phrase used in this code in speech recognition dictionary by
selecting tools option in the language bar and by choosing add/delete words option.
2.check whether your speech recognition engine works perfectly.i used dragon natural speech recognition version 7, in addition to microsoft speech recognition engine. after installing the engine you would find dragon activex control in components property in visual basic.
In this method it opens the windows applications on telling the phrase. -
Hello Sir,
Sincere thanks for your effort on the speech recognition project it really proved of great value to me. i am a student working on creating the same as my project. I only wish to operate different peripherals such as- printer, scanner, modems, web cameras on the voice commands along with an added feature of security. If u could only shed some light on my how to interface these in VB, i would be really be obliged.
Looking forward to your response
Thank you -
i am sorry but this progy is not working for me i have all d/l and i have the mic on, the seakers on too i scaned the things i typed and stell the samething it wont work for me i also tryed some athere things but stell its like everthing i try dont work for this program

&vbCrLf&_
type=cfg
[<Start>] and
<start>
Like the grammar can we change the prounciation by our own. If possible please give the code to change the prounciation dictionary.
Thank U.
