FirstElement Property

The FirstElement property returns the offset of the first spoken element spanned by this property.

Syntax

Set:	(This property is read-only)
Get:	Long = ISpeechPhraseProperty.FirstElement

Parts

ISpeechPhraseProperty: The owning object.
Long: Set: (This property is read-only)
Get: A Long variable that gets the property.

Example

The following code demonstrates retrieving the Name property from a command and control recognition.

To run this code, create a form with the following controls:

Two labels called Label1 and Label2

Paste this code into the Declarations section of the form.

The Form_Load procedure creates and activates a dictation grammar. The grammar file sol.xml is the solitaire grammar provided with the SDK. The path listed is for a standard SDK install and may be changed as needed.

If "play the red five" has been recognized, the application will display the recognized text in label1. Label2 displays the names of the two properties used from the grammar along with the actual word or phrase which activated the rule. In this case, the rules would be "color=red" and "rank=five." The number of elements in the phrase matching the property is displayed in parenthesis. It is possible for more than one word to activate a rule for a property. In the case of sol.xml, only single words are used. However, if the file were changed, for example, so that the ColorRed definition becomes "red card" instead of just "red", then the expression "play the red card five" would display two elements for the property.
