Jeff,
Just as a side note, getting the synthesizers collection on every
OnSpeak comes at a pretty heavy price. Just to test and play it is fine
but I wouldn't want this script always doing this with every OnSpeak.
So I was going to give you great words of wisdom on how you really
should do this and realized you can't <smile>. This is just an
oversight on our part so we'll be adding a Synthesizers.OnActivate
event. This event would fire whenever the synthesizer changed and give
you the current Synthesizer object. We already did this for
BrailleDisplays.OnActivate. This way you could just hook the event and
when the synth changes to the one you are interested in then you can set
a flag that you can check in your OnSpeak event. This would be much
more efficient.
Regards,
Doug

The
Synthesizers.Active.Description
Works great.

Almost.
SynthesizerDescription needs a dot separator. Synthesizer is the object,
and Description is the property, so you would do:
If Synthesizer.Description = "DECtalk Access32 (Window-Eyes)" Then
That's one of the reasons why turning on punctuation when reviewing code
is so important.
But even then, you need to determine what the active synthesizer is, not
just any random synthesizer. The Active property of the Synthesizers
object (a collection) gives you back a Synthesizer object (a single
object) representing the active synthesizer. You can then compare its
description to the string you're interested in. So you really want:
If Synthesizers.Active.Description = "DECtalk Access32 (Window-Eyes)"
Then

Ok, Aaron, I see that--thanks.
Now when the script runs without errors, should I be able to press a
key
say control-shift-t for the title and hear the "DECtalk Says " before
the title?

I think you've got too many spaces between Access 32 and (Window.
There
should be only once space.
