Listening

The WIn key is not in the list of OnKey events. As such, you won't be able to create a macro using the Application.OnKey command.



Research has shown you might be able to capture the WIN key by using a Windows API ... but that would be highly intensive and always dangerous if you are

not fully aware of the implications getting into the Windows API.



I tried using the Macro Recorder to capture the key strokes of WIN + H but the recorder was unable to see those key presses and did not create a macro.

Not 100% sure on this, but does this do what you want?

VBA Code:
Sub Listening()
Shell "POWERSHELL.EXE C:\Windows\Speech\Common\sapisvr.exe -SpeechUX", vbNormalFocus
End Sub

I think you may have something there. And to think with all the websites, forums, etc I researched ... no one suggested what you have.
I'll be following this thread.
