Try this Access SoapService download http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=26157&lngWId=1 Access 97 mdb methods to call various Soap Web Services such as Talking Clock, Text to Speech (returns .wav file so MS XVoice.dll not required) make your error messages verbal, Airline Plane location while plane in the air, Text language translation English to Spanish etc., California Highway conditions, Worldwide SMS phone messages, Soap to Email, Stock Exchange quotes etc. The PocketSoap version 0.9 download may no longer be available so you would need to rewrite to 1.4 version or use MS Soap toolkit. Guess I should rewrite haven't touiched this in two years. There is one form in mdb that uses text to speech agent only;so try that, should run removing soap references. It also creates a .wav file. Maybe I should rewrite. Further explanation in download text files. http://www.microsoft.com/msagent/downloads.htm#tts 1 Download the Microsoft SAPI 4.0a runtime binaries (824 KB exe) 2 Download Text-to-speech engines English or German etc 3 Download the Microsoft Agent core components (395 KB exe) not needed for XP 2000 or Me 4 there is a download for limited speech recognition haven't tried. http://www.pocketsoap.com Jim Lawrence (AccessD) wrote: >Hi All: > >Has anyone heard of voice activated software/hardware that will allow >inter-action between an application that say might be written in Access? > >MTIA >Jim > > >
