Overview
The applications that you develop can react to the user's voice. For example, some actions (scrolling a table, closing windows, selecting a check box or clicking a button) are automatically supported.
All the standard commands of Windows are supported.
You can also add your own voice commands to your applications. For example, say "Find the form for Mr John Smith" and the corresponding action is performed.
How to?

Necessary conditions

AndroidiPhone/iPad To use the voice commands in your applications, the service for speech recognition must be installed on the phone. The recognition of the voice commands must be triggered by SpeechRecognitionTrigger.
iPhone/iPad Caution: The functions for speech recognition can be used from iOS 10.

Proposing additional options or macro-commands

Procedures or functions can be associated with a voice command. All you have to do is associate the procedure with the command via SpeechRecognitionAddCommand. This procedure is linked to the procedure for the current window.
In the procedure, the sentence that triggered the voice command can be retrieved. This allows you to isolate the requested information (customer name, city name, ...).
You have the ability to delete this association with SpeechRecognitionDeleteCommand.
Example:
// Start the "Find" procedure if the voice command is recognized
nVoiceID is int
nVoiceID = SpeechRecognitionAddCommand("Find", "Finds the form of")
PROCÉDURE Find(Param1)
sCustomer is string = Param1[[21 TO ]]
HReadSeekFirst(sCustomer, FIRSTNAMELASTNAME, sCustomer)

The voice commands of Windows Vista (or Windows XP, with a specific software) are used to control WINDEV applications with the voice.
A WINDEV application already responds to the voice when the user dictates in an edit control or spells out the caption of a button.
You also have the ability to program a specific voice command to perform a specific action.
