Hmmm.... I suggest you take a look at the Microsoft web site. As no error occurs, our code seems to be working fine; the Microsoft text-to-speech control just isn't saying anything.

well you have to download all the stuff that was at the begenning of the TUT, then add those lips to your form lol.
heres what i use for code... it looks like this

spkSpeak.speak "Hello how are you"
spkSpeak.speak = txtSayit.text

stuff like that
umm if you have msn msg me at zith321@hotmail.com

Dear James,

I have been solve this problem already! The Control didn't work because the matter of sound card and the configuration of the windows. Thank you for your responding.

I have another question! how do i change the voice of this control from the man voice to woman voice????

Regards,
Mun Yoong

didn't wok. error message METHOD 'Speak' of the object 'ITexttoSpeak' failed. what can I do?

It will not really work in Windows 95 as it is clearly defined on SAPI home page that Windows 95 and below is not supported.

I guess you all have the wrong version of Visual Basic.
When i was downloading the text-to-speech control from the Microsoft Speech website i sa this:

Software Requirements:
Microsoft Visual Basic® 6.0 is needed to write applications incorporating SAPI automation, or for compiling the Visual Basic sample code. Since SAPI supports COM automation, other languages and...bla bla bla..

Maybe that is the problem?

Jackal salutes you..

Hi Ann, Do u already fixed d' problem 'bout d speech recognition program. I also have d same problem. Is it d sound card is not compatible? - Petrick

thanks petrick, what sound card is compatible to that program.  I really really want to know because I'm very much interested to learn the text-to-speech because I want to apply the program to my system design and analysis defense, para kakaiba kami di ba!.  Thanks again!!!

 I have woked accordingly as per written instruction,but this component cant work.no sound is produce,how this is going to work?

The Visual Basic version should not matter.  I have the Developing for MS Agent book.  It gives examples for Text-to-speech in VB, C++, even HTML.  Some of the problem may be that Agent isnt loaded.  Do you see it in the notification area on the taskbar?
