voice recognition in powerpoint as a trigger

[Guest]

I think it would be a good idea to add voice recognition as a trigger in a
powerpoint presentation.
For example, you could write a script to go along with your presentation and
powerpoint would follow allong with the script until you hit a trigger word
that will call the next preset animation just like you would a mouse click.

Does that mean it is going to be in the next version of Power Point or is it
in version 2003? If it is could you direct me to where I could find it, I
didn't see it in the help documentation.

Kinda of tough to find it but if you go to help in PPT 2003 and search for
"speech recognition" you get a dozen or so returns such as "Use speech
recognition", "Examples of using speech recognition with Office", "Things
you can do and say with speech recognition", "First time use in Office",
etc.
