Hi Scotte,

Thanks for the reply.  And as you figured out, I really meant speech to
text.  :)

I'm on Windows 10, but I'll give the built in speech recognition a shot and
see how it performs.   I've always been amazed though at how well Amazon
and Google handle speech from multiple people w/o any need to train the
application first.

Best regards,

Alan
