How to introduce some speech/sound 1

[isha]

I am developing a simple complaints lodgement system. At the click of Save button a complaint no. is generated and displayed in a text box on the form. I want an arrangement through which side by side displaying on the text box it is also communicated through the voice on the system speakers and it should sound "Your complaint no. is ----. Thank you"

Can someone provide me some hint?
Thanks.

isha,

hello

you can download the MS Agent.
download Text-to-speech engines and setup it up,
then down load Microsoft Agent character files then set it up.Try the code below from microsoft...he he he.


general declaration

Dim Genie As IAgentCtlCharacterEx
Const DATAPATH = "genie.acs"

Private Sub Form_Load()
Agent1.Characters.Load "Genie", DATAPATH
Set Genie = Agent1.Characters("Genie&quot
Genie.LanguageID = &H409
TextBox.Text = "Hello World!"
End Sub

Private Sub Button_Click()
Genie.Show
Genie.Speak TextBox.Text
Genie.Hide
End Sub

Your suggestion worked but i came across the following mentioned two problems.

1. When i made the package through Package and Deployment Wizard it gave an error as "dependency information for the following could not be found agentctl.dll" I clicked O.K. to proceed without dependency information.

2. When i set up the package at a client and try to run that particular form on which MS Agent is used it gives the error as "Runtime error 2147024893(80070003) The system cannot find the path specified"
I want to make one thing clear that I have not loaded the MS Agent, Genie and text to speech engine on the client.

Can someone help me resolve the problem.
Thanks.

All of the Win2k machines in our shop already have the necessary Agent files... There's an agent Code Generation utility called MASH that might be helpfull.
