Local $oSpeech = ObjCreate("SAPI.SpVoice")
$oSpeech.Speak("Failure is inevitable.")

Maybe...

a little error checking

Local $oSpeech = ObjCreate("SAPI.SpVoice")
If ISObj($oSpeech) Then $oSpeech.Speak("Failure is inevitable.")

You must have missed the irony in the quoted text.

You probably already have it sorted, but I'll suggest this little app anyway, Alive Text-to-Speech. It's useful as it also can save the spoken stuff out to wavs and mp3s. You can find it here:

Though, I hate the garbled Hawkings-sounding Microsoft Mike of the standard SAPI stuff, so I used another couple of voice sets I got separately. I highly recommend the NeoSpeech Kate and Paul voices. They are totally worth the minor amount they cost as they sound MUCH more realistic than the standard voices....

(this isn't spam btw, I'm just relaying my experiences as an end user in case it helps... )

it only took me about 10 minutes to get the code done after i got the link, so i'm fine

allthough seeing you allready made one zfisherdrums, makes me believe that i lack skill of forum searching xD
