Getting Excel Speech Recognition to Recognize Names
For the Excel spreadsheet I'm working on, I need the speech recognition feature to recognize names that I say. I tried adding those names to the speech recognition dictionary in Windows 10 but when I went back into Excel, it still didn't recognize them. Does anyone know how to get these names added to a speech recognition dictionary that Excel will be able to link to? Thanks!

sfrydman I know the post is already quite old but if you are still struggling with the problem you may try Speech4Excel. The app can be used to enter data into Excel sheets.
It is available in the Windows App store (just search for Speech4Excel) or you check out the https://www.speech4excel.com/.

NikolinoDE The link you provided does not explain how to add words to the speech recognition dictionary and make sure that dictionary is linked to Excel, but thank you very much for taking the time to respond.
