Hi Dark,
That's not necessarily a bug. Comparing a screen reader to a software
speech system like Sapi isn't really a good comparison in this instance.
While text to speech systems like Sapi have there own dictionaries that
tells the synth how to say various words, numbers, and punctuation
marks, etc any third-party software such as a screen reader can over
ride the voice's built in speech dictionary. For example, in Jaws you
can configure it to say numbers as whole numbers, single digits, or in
pares. So a string of numbers like 1, 9, 8, 6 can be spoken as 1,986, 19
86, or 1 9 8 6. That's a simple case where the screen reader overrides
whatever the text to speech voice would ordinarily say given the same
number in another application.
Bottom line, just becauseJaws says something correctly it doesn't mean
the Sapi voice or application using Sapi is buggy. It is more likely
that Jaws, Window Eyes, Hal, etc has performed some extra speech
processing behind the scenes and is more accurate.

Hi Che.
sinse that line reads fine with JAws and not with Sapi, I would
actually class it as a bug, ---- I'm only using scripting because it
won't automatically read.
I've tried the command with what I believe to be the correct syntax in
the trigger dialogue, ----- as I detailed, but either I did something
wrong, or there is something more intrinsic to why sSapi won't read a
line written in betwene less than greater than prompts.
I'm really not sure sinse as I said, apparently it reads fine with
other speech methods.
Beware the Grue!
