To Play the File in Question

To Prevent This Type of Error From Occuring Again

1.  If you are sending files to another person or working in an Author/Typist scenario, make sure that both the SpeechExec Pro Dictate & SpeechExec Pro Transcribe are the same Version & Build.

2. Make sure that the SpeechExec Pro Dictate software sets the proper ‘State’ upon download.  To do this, go to Settings > DPM/DT Configuration > Downloaded Dictations > Set Transcription Pending state for all DPM files.

Following these steps will ensure that you have configured the software properly.
