Hi David and others,
I see that MS has replace SAPI with the Microsoft Speech Platform, which evidently has a different way of interfacing with the voices. Does anyone have any info on the two systems: when will SAPI stop being supported; am I correct in thinking that the speech platform is not backwards compatible with SAPI commands? Etc. Was just wondering if a developer put a lot of effort into SAPI could he count on it continuing to run for a long time? Thanks.

In my app, I am using a SAPI voice, to read out a certain amount of text. the very basics of the code, is: Dim SVoice: Set SVoice = CreateObject( "SAPI.SpVoice") SVoice.Speak "blah-blah-blah!" Allright, all of this works fine. Yet, since the text is somehow lengthy, and I want other processes not to wait for all that text to be spoken, I have this one question for you experienced developers. Is there any instruction I can use, to send the text to the Sapi voice, and immediately have the next line of code carried out? That is, some kind of an instruction for the Sapi Object, to know that it is not supposed to wait for the voice to finish speaking, before the code can move on. Thanks for any response, and hope the above somehow made sense.
