I want to convert text to speech on the PC's audio output. I have heard
that XP has this ability. I have VB6.0. Can anyone tell me how to go about
this?

Thanks,
Bob White

Hi Ken,
Will I need the SDK even to use the "built in" speech synthesizer that is
supposedly in XP Pro? At this point, I'm only looking for the simplest
synthesizer for a proof-of-concept dog and pony show.
Thanks,
Bob

Hi,

There are controls to make it easier. Not to mention documentation.
