Hi Gary, Yes, that is probably his problem. It is advertised everywhere, kind of the usual Microsoft joke.
Also, I found the web page that had all your hints on getting things to work. After all the no help at the Microsoft site and such I did do the voice install you recommended once I found the page it was on. http://wwwx.cs.unc.edu/~gb/wp/research/hark-the-sound/install-instructions/ Now with my XP Pro I do have the 3 voices. I tested it and they do now work and are on the list of names using the getname command. print "List of voices =", tts.GetVoiceNames() Thanks, and good luck Ian Bruce Sorry to hear you run Vista. That is probably the root of the problem. I have made pyTTS work on Vista back when I had a VM running it but I don't now. I recommend you upgrade to XP. Lots of vendors are offering XP upgrade coupons for people who bought Vista. gb Ian Mallett wrote: > Vista Home Premium >
