HI Ric, I think that using the openBook programme text files can be converted to audio. I've see a "save as mp3" under the files menu and my understanding is that it will save a recording of a file. However, I don't think there is a transcription software like victor's searching for alas. Kerry

Actually, you can't even convert text files to audio, that is simply just a recording.

In any case, as the subject line says, my friend essentially needs to convert audio files to text files, with exact transcripts of what is said in the interviews she intends on doing. I thought about Dragon Naturally speaking, but then realized that she can only train Dragon in her voice, and not the other 40 voices she's going to be interviewing. So, does anyone have any advice for me, aside from her sitting there and typing out 80 to 100 hours worth of interviews? Any software that anyone knows about? Again, my apologies to the lists I'm on, but as I said, time is of the essence.
