SpeechIndex Property

  • Article
  Microsoft Speech Technologies Homepage

Gets or sets the activation order of the control, relative to other Speech Controls on the page. Read/write.

Usage

ASP.NET markup: <speech:SpeechControl SpeechIndex="..." />
Get value: Int = SpeechControl.SpeechIndex;
Set value: SpeechControl.SpeechIndex = Int;
Data type: Int
Required: No

SpeechIndex can be used by dialog authors to modify the order in which the client-side dialog manager RunSpeech activates the control. See the Activation and Semantic Processing topic for more details.

The value of SpeechIndex must be a positive integer. The control throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException for negative values of SpeechIndex.
