$a2="blah blah"

While $i<1

$j = InputBox("Text", "1.press 1 for checking complete.2.press 2 for ...blah blah", "")

$oSp = ObjCreate("SAPI.SpVoice")

$c="$a" & $j

;MsgBox(1,"",$c)

The variable $a isn't declared or given a value. "$a" is a string.

Nice observation.and somewhat there my problem goes.i need that string value sitting inside $a1 in the $oSp.Speak($c) line.is there any way to get the value of the value of $c because that's what i need. Edited October 6, 2009 by iamsandeep

'Opt("ExpandVarStrings", 1)'?

thnx a million omikron48 for u'r help.but it's still not working out.i thing the work around will be a huge switch case loop.but the code neither will be small nor smart.

$i=0

$a[2] = ["Checking complete.", "blah blah"]

While $i<1

$j = InputBox("Text", "1.press 1 for checking complete.2.press 2 for ...blah blah", "")

$oSp = ObjCreate("SAPI.SpVoice")

$c=$a[$j]

;MsgBox(1,"",$c)

$oSp.Speak($c)

WEnd

Or, maybe:

$oSp = ObjCreate("SAPI.SpVoice")
$a1 = "Checking complete."
$a2 = "blah blah"
While 1
    $j = InputBox("Text", "Enter 1 for complete, 2 for 'blah blah', E for exit")
    Switch $j
        Case "1"
            $sText = $a1
        Case "2"
            $sText = $a2
        Case "E"
            $sText = "Goodbye."
        Case Else
            $sText = "Try again, bone head!"
    EndSwitch
    $oSp.Speak($sText)
    If $sText = "Goodbye." Then ExitLoop
WEnd
$oSp = 0
