I did a childrens' project in Director some time ago in which I used a speech
recognition engine (it came with Dragon Naturally Speaking software) in concert
with the Windows animated wizard. now I would like to translate it into Flash.
Can the Windows wizard (Active-X - I think) be made to work in Flash? And can a
speech recognition engine be used to compare spoken words to a word list?
Thanks for any info..

There are some "wrappers" for Flash that allow you to convert your flash
into an EXE (which runs locally); I believe some allow you to hook into
external controls in this manner.
If you want web based then your options are:
1. Try and embed the ActiveX into a page and then use javascript to
communicate with the Flash 'applet'; probably has licensing
issue(s) as well as technical issues.
2. Use a server-side backend; the downside here is that since Flash
compresses mic. input into a proprietary format there may not be a
way to get it out into a format usable to your recognition engine.
