Calling the "no space" voice command with Dragon NaturallySpeaking from another voice command

I wrote the following voice command in Dragon NaturallySpeaking's advanced scripting:

Sub Main
    SendKeys"number_of_"
    Wait(0.2)
    HeardWord "no", "space"
End Sub

The point of the command is to type number_of_, then prevent Dragon from adding a space when the user dictate another word. As a result, I used HeardWord to call the no space voice command.

Everything works as expected except the line HeardWord "no", "space", which fails to call the no space voice command. Why?

Solution

  • When using HeardWord, you need to write the exact name of the command, and not some homonym. In this example, the exact name of the command is No-Space, and subsequently you should write:

    Sub Main
    SendKeys"number_of_"
    Wait(0.2)
    HeardWord "No-Space"
End Sub
