Hi  Dark,

Sorry, you lost me there. Why wouldn't a screen reader use Sapi 5
voices rather than trying to support each and every voice out their
directly?

I mean the entire purpose of Microsoft providing the Sapi 5 com
library is so that developers would have a single API to access
various speech systems like Microsoft Sapi, AT&T, Cepstral, Careproc,
etc all from one interface. Otherwise you are talking about having to
write a custom wrapper or middleware for each and every single speech
engine out there on the market when you don't have too. So your
comments royally confuses me.
