Changing Your Phone Settings With Assistant
Assistant has several main tabs you can click to view different phone setting options.
To change your phone settings using Assistant, do the following.
1. Click Settings in the Assistant window.
2. The Properties window opens to the Identification tab. This is where you can
change your name as listed in the directory, and add any nicknames callers might
use when asking for you. Any nicknames you enter are added to the voice-dialing
list used by Microsoft Response Point.
You can click the other tabs to change additional phone settings. See the following

Recording a User Name With Assistant
The name you have been assigned by the System Administrator is the name callers
hear when they ask the Automated Receptionist to speak to you. The recorded name
can be changed by specifying a different name for the computer-generated speech, or
recording a sound file of your own.
The words that the Automated Receptionist uses to confirm a caller's request are not
always the same as the user name or directory entry. For example, a caller may
request to speak to "Ms. Margheim." However, you may want the Automated
Receptionist to say "Diane Margheim" in confirmation, and the user name may be
"Dr. Margheim".
