Oops, the snip I send, had an error in it. Here is the correct line, but it doesn't work:
If InStr(OriginalString, "/") Then OriginalString = "Fractional, " & OriginalString Speak "Fractional, is running." ----- Original Message ----- From: David To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2011 12:18 AM Subject: Guess I am on the wrong Event? Hi scripters, I am trying to make an app that handles fractional numbers. That is, have it speak the word "Fractional", when it reaches numbers like 1/4. Below is a snip of my code. My thought was to connect to the Speech/OnSpeak event, and simply check if there is a SLASH in the original string. But that seems not to work. When things like 1/2, 2/3 or 3/4 occurs, it seems that the OnSpeak string is broken into two seperate strings, by Window-Eyes. Not sure why GW would do such a thing, but that seems to be the case. In other words, the 1/3, will be broken into two strings: "1", and "3". This causes, far as I can see, Window-Eyes not to ever 'see' the slash inbetween; hence my code never works. Am I connecting to the wrong event? Is there a better approach to the matter? ---Snip of code--- ConnectEvent Speech, "OnSpeak", "MOnSpeak" Function MOnSpeak( OriginalString ) If InStr(OriginalString, "4") Then OriginalString = "Fractional, " & OriginalString MOnSpeak = OriginalString End Function 'MOnSpeak. ----End of snip---- Speak "Fractional, is running."
