Setting Up Roaming Users
To turn the Roaming User feature on
1
Start Dragon NaturallySpeaking. If the Open User dialog box appears, click
Cancel. If a user file opens automatically (Dragon NaturallySpeaking will do
this if there is only one user available), click Close User on the Dragonbar
NatuallySpeaking menu.
2
Click Administrative Settings on the Dragonbar Tools menu.
3
On the open Administrative Settings dialog box, select the Enable check box.
Selecting the check box makes the other options in the Roaming User group
available.
To specify the location of the network roaming user
On each computer where someone will be dictating with a roaming user, you must
tell that installation of Dragon NaturallySpeaking where the network roaming user
is located, and if necessary, create that location. You do this on the Administrative
Setting dialog box as follows:
1
On the open Administrative Settings dialog box, click the Browse button to the
right of the Network directory box.
2
Use the Browse for Folder dialog box to open a location where you want to
store the network roaming user. It should be in a location accessible to all
computers on the network that you want available for dictation with Dragon
NatuallySpeaking.
3
If the directory does not currently exist, click Make New Folder and type a
name for the new folder. The new directory can have any name, but calling it
something meaningful, such as network roaming User, will make the folder easier
to find in the future.
4
Click OK.
To specify the location of a local roaming user
Dragon NaturallySpeaking must also know where to store a local copy of the
network roaming user.
1
On the open Administrative Settings dialog box. The default location is
<Roaming local>. If you want to change this path, click the Browse button to
the right of the Local directory box.
2
Use the Browse for Folder dialog box to open a location where you want to
store the network roaming user. This is the location on the computer where
changes made during dictation, such as corrections or new acoustic data are
stored before they are synchronized with the network roaming user.
