hi, the reason gw micro did not do this is because there is no internal means of setting sapi voices. you can trick a device to directly use a sound driver for the screen reader then the screen reader will then direct the sound to the actual sound driver. gw micro chooses to use the built in capability of the synthesizer with out resorting to this hack. this is my understanding of the situation. hth

Honestly, I never understood why GW did not let the SAPI voices have the same chance of changing from within WE itself. True, in general, there is no need to invent the wheel all over. So, if you can do the setting in Windows itself, why bother having WE do the job. Yet, in cases like this, I think it might serve more as a basis for confusion and frustration, that one voice can be redirected from the WE control panel, whilst the other one will have to be redirected from Windows. To most users, the voice is connected to WE, and hence the only logic would be, that it can be controlled from WE directly. After all, you don't have to go to the Windows control panel, so as to adjust volume and speed, even for the SAPI voices. So then, why this strange thing about not being able to select sound card, for the SAPI voices right there in the WE panel? ----- Original Message ----- From: jim grimsby Jr. To: gw-info Sent: Saturday, February 05, 2011 5:23 AM Subject: Re: A WINDOW-EYES QUESTION hi, this works also with eloquence and imp via voice out loud. hth Jim Grimsby JR.
