For those of you interested, You can use voice software to activate any keyboardshortcut within Revit using Dragon the Naturally Speaking Professional software from NUANCE. I have included a PDF showing the procedure to generate a simple command to get a new Revit family started.
For those who chuckle thinking about the background sound and other people "interferring", I am using it with a pair of computer stereo speakers less than 18" away without any problems.
