'---End Of Snip---
Guys,
I have inserted a small snip of a code, above. When running this code, I
had it perform the middle SPEAK command in a slower rate, but only once.
Why it worked once, I have been unable to determine. I have run it
numerous times, and the rate does not slow down. I tried with some sleep
commands, both ahead of - and behind - the ActiveSettings instructions.
All the sleep command did, was to insert initial pause before the speech
would ever start out.
Am I doing something wrong in my code? Did I miss some instructions? Or,
is my idea of being able to slow down in the middle of a line of speak
commands, totally lost behind any possibility?
Thanks for any feedback and suggestions, that might lead me on the right
track.
