I don't think it's so much that they are VI programs, I think it's because
so many share a common speech engine, i.e., RealSpeak. The important thing
seems to be the order in which the programs are installed: I've done it in
the past, using trial and error, and it's a long, tedious
restart-your-computer business. However, any supplier should have plenty of
experience of this kind of set up and will be able to tell you which way
round to load things. I'm not clear in the original post if the question is
whether Dragon and Lunar can operate on the same machine or if it is whether
Dragon can be used to control Lunar.
