The way to accomplish simple tasks is to use the WSRToolkit version 2. Among many other things, you can easily create macros. Macros are shortcuts. These can be blocks of text, navigation macros to other screens and programs, or a series of commands like:

select all (Ctrl + A)

copy (Ctrl + C)

switch windows (like to Word which is Winword.exe)

paste text you copied (Ctrl + V)

PS. the previous 3 lines were inserted when I used the text macro, "Sign off."

 

If upgrading to a newer version of Microsoft Office/Word is not an option, below is a macro for dictating into Word Pad (say, "Open dictation box") and when finished, say "post dictation." This should put the text into Word if the cursor was in Word when you initiated the macro.
