Hi David,
Yes, I have the same setup. the only thing I can not do and don't know
why and that is run the Sapi 4 on a web page, just an HTML file from my
computer. It
says: ActiveX component can't create object: 'ActiveVoice.ActiveVoice'
I used regsvr32 xvoice.dll and that did not fix the problem.
So I thought I would just see if any of you ran into that problem when
scripting.
Bruce

Subject: Re: SAPI questions
Even in cases where you do have SAPI 5, you sometimes might have SAPI 4, and
it would work the better. For instance, on my system, I have the voices from
AT&T - Crystal and Mike. They come in both version 4 and 5. The modulation,
and also the speed setting of SAPI 4, I do find far better than that of SAPI
5 version of these voices. So, yes, most people wil have access to SAPI 5
voices, but might still want to go for their good old SAPI 4 ones.
