well.. i'm not quite sure how to make word to do that, but you can use the built in narrator feature to read out text from notepad. \n\nstart -> program -> accessories -> accessibility -> narrator

Try using Dragon NaturallySpeaking. I don't know if there is a free trial demo though. And I don't know if it'd work in a chatroom too.

Microsoft windows xp and 2000 had a built in program that does that for you. Click Start>then click Control Panel> click on Speech icon and follow the prompts. Good luck!

you may want to try Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library and the ADO 2.8 objects (very useful when it comes to connecting word to a database ie SQL) and Microsoft Excel Objects Library when you want to control Excel from Word.\n\nTo do so you need to reference it : from the visual basic editor (ALT+F11) click Tools and Reference and scroll down till you can find "Microsoft ActiveX Data " and tick it. Do the same for excel library.

Well I'm doing my part.  My computer and I have regular conversations.  Well.  Almost regular.  I have been working at integrating TTS and Speech Recognition into a single application.  With the aid of an animated Avatar, this software seems to work as a real agent.  Although hopefully not as bad as agent Smith from the Matrix.  Check it out on YouTube:\n\nhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYu6_cNRCD4
