Can anyone please let me know how to integrate Express Scribe with Microsoft Word, maybe with SDK and/or wherein I can put Express Scribe on the tool bar of Microsoft Word. I know maybe I am asking for too much but still if admin can help with in either affirmative and/or negative and can give any idea as to is there any possibility of doing it and for that matter what will be the approach. Thanks in advance.

This is a 2-step process. First create a macro to launch ExpressSribe with the following code (for XP):

 

Sub ExpressScribe()

 

Shell "C:\Program Files\NCH Swift Sound\Scribe\scribe.exe", vbNormalFocus

 

End Sub

 

Then you add this macro to one of the toolbar menus or create a new menu just for ExpressScribe.

 

Remember, macros and toolbars are stored in the template they are associated with. If you are going to distribute this, it should be created in a separate template that the user loads.
