Hi!

I'm trying to use google speech to dictate in swedish but Inputkeys textentry doesn't output swedish characters correctly.

How do I get Inputkeys textentry to put out swedish characters correctly?

The swedish characters shows up correctly in command history window after InputKeys.TextEntry:

But get exchanged for questions marks when output in Notepad:

l?sa p? ?ken

When using System.SetClipboardText the swedish characters shows correctly when pasted from clipboard.

Could it be fixed by somehow changing the characterset encoding or how can I get the swedish characters to be typed out correctly?

Grateful for help.

I don't know if it's possible to do this with the keyboard emulation I am using in VC.

Why don't you try to use SetClipboardText and paste using keyboard emulation of Ctrl-V

Ok.

If I go via the clipboard I loose what's in the clipboard every time I dictate.

And I often use the clipboard and dictation at the same time like when editing/creating a document;

Dictating - cut or copy - dictating more - paste...

It might be a bit clunky, but you could always make a backup of the clipboard contents first and then restore them after you paste.

It might turn into a mess, or you never know, it might just work perfectly.
