Here is a complete set of voice controlled checklists for the PMDG 737-700 and the 737-800 (-900 should also be fine with the 800 Template, but untestet)
To run this you need to have the full and newest version of Lorby's Axis and OH's installed. Also you need Microsoft's voice "MARK" (english voice package) installed on your windows system.
These checklists also check the status of most of the items and give you the appropriate feedback if something is set wrong.
The Checklist is based of the Ryanair Checklist from FilbertFlies, you can find it here: https://flightsim.to/file/33795/ryanair-pmdg-737-flows-checklists
In his Checklist you will find blue boxes these are the Checks i have replicated, so first you do the flow and after that you can start the checklist to check if you set everything correct.

Hope you find this useful :)
Installation:
First make sure you have voice "Microsoft Mark" installed on your windows speech recognition system. If you have another voice installed, you need to change the scripts manually according to your used/installed voice.
- Template for AAO -> 737 or 738.tmpl file needs to be imported in AAO (Templates->import Template). I suggest you merge that with your existing template you are using with your 737/738 by applying template to aircraft.
- Copy the 737 Folder into AAO Documents folder -> these folder need to go to your documents folder which is supposed to be here: C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\Documents\LorbyAxisAndOhs Files\Scripts\
so the full path will be C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\Documents\LorbyAxisAndOhs Files\Scripts\737\XXX_737.txt
Then you should be done so far. Easy as is. Only one thing needs to be changed and that is your PTT button. As I have a button on my Keyboard assigned (/) to toggle between voice recognition on and off you might need to change that to your needs. Therefore go into AAO Assigned buttons window and look for "AAO_VOICEREC_TOGGLE". Double click on it and change it to your prefered device and key/button.
Hope you like my work and feel free to give feedback or if you find a bug ;)
First version, not fully tested yet, so feel free to give Feedback :)
PS: Thanks for Oliver (AaO) and Chris PU // A320 from the JayDee Discord Server for the help :)

Hi,
it would not work for me initially; I just could not start the scripts, although I thougt I had followed the installation method meticulously.
Here is what I missed:
AAO > Extras > Show list of all SAPI voices
"Mark" has to be in that list (which wasn't the case for me).
You can add "Mark" in the AAO-dialogue window:
> Registry hack: Add WinRT voices to SAPI
At least that was the fix for my system...!
Now everything seems to work fine - thanks a lot bam2000 (but I may also mention Lorby-SI, Chris_PU_A320 and JayDee...).

What do you mean by " You can add "Mark in the AAO-dialogue window" ??
The input field at the end of the Registry hack line is not editable.

Hi, AAO able to hear my voice command ( the green light flicker), but I don't hear from Mark to read the checklist, all the txt files are in the Script folder. Am I missing something?

Hi have you checked if you have "Mark" instelled „Extras->Select language
for speech recognizer“. Doubleclick on a langauge in the list to select it, you need have it installed in Windows and it needs to be added to the registry via the Axis and Ohs menu above
