Sub Main

ButtonClick 1, 2' double-left click - selects the word under the mouse pointer

SendKeys "^c", 1' copies the selected word to the clipboard

Wait 0.3' some machines might require slightly more and others might get by with less or none

selectedWord = Clipboard

Wait 0.3

firstLetter = Mid (selectedWord, 1, 1)

firstLetter = UCase (firstLetter)

capitalizedWord = firstLetter

' if the word is more than one letter long…

letters = Len (selectedWord)

If letters > 1 Then

theRestOfTheWord = Mid (selectedWord, 2)

capitalizedWord = capitalizedWord & theRestOfTheWord

End If

SendKeys capitalizedWord, 1

End Sub

 

I tested the above as a Dragon Advanced Script (DPI 15.3). Someone more knowledgeable with DVC scripting might be able to turn it into a faster DVC version. It is not quite "in the blink of an eye" as presented above!

Edgar, thank you so much. This works beautifully. It is fast enough to still be practical. 

And I managed to use the same script with just a one letter tweak to make it do the opposite. 

I have to do a lot of proofreading in Google docs and this script will be so helpful for me! 

thank you very much for your time.
