Having all commands available at all times could cause problems where dictation is recognized as commands. However, if there are just a few commands that you would like to use during dictation, put them in the "Dictation Text Macros" set. These commands are active in both dictation and command modes. You will need to quit and relaunch iListen for these commands to be active. This is better than putting them in the "Dictation Macros" set because updates to iListen do not change the Dictation Text Macros. Joe Senecal
