I have also tried the following script under Windows 2000 but it doesn't
work and it doesn't give any error.
The SAPI 4 is installed by default in Windows 2000 and it works fine with
Narrator and with my screen reader so this is not a problem.

Under Windows XP SAPI 5 is installed by default, and it might have a little
different syntax...

But I am wondering why this script doesn't work...



use strict;
use warnings;

use Win32::OLE;
my $voice = Win32::OLE->new("Speech.VoiceText");
$voice->Register('', 'Perl');
$voice->speak("hello world");
<STDIN>;        # wait til it finishes speaking
