i think you understand ... something that you write ,click SPEECH and there will speech that what you write ..

The Program is too simple to build , finally will look like this ..



All you need are :

Perhaps you could explain what SAPI is, the parameters you are able to pass to speak() (optional and require, the types, etc) and what "SAPI.spvoice" is. I'm viewing this from a beginners perspective and after using your code I wouldn't know anything more about it than what I did before reading.

I have forgotten to answer this question :$
The Speech Application Programming Interface or SAPI is an API developed by Microsoft to allow the use of speech recognition and speech synthesis within Windows applications.

What params does/can it take to initiate it?

[mendim.]

I really don't understand nothing that you're asking but .. this programs works ..
cause it connect with the SAPI that is on Windows and makes the Voice..

Here, allow me.

The Speech Application Programming Interface (SAPI for short) is an API that uses Microsoft's built-in speech reading tools to read out text.

In this tutorial, mendim late-binded an object to the variable, so it is impossible to tell from the IntelliSense drop-down lists which members (methods and properties) the API accepts. For this, you need to consult the MSDN documentation. If you wish to import the API, it is available at C:\Program Files\Microsoft Speech SDK 5.3\Lib\i386\sapi.lib.

SAPI Object classes (SAPI 5.3)
