Want to do THAT with YOUR Images? Then see the HTML code and explanation at the end!



This is a neat little trick I came across that you can use to impress your friends. By using this trick you can make your computer say whatever you type.This trick works on all microsoft operating systems and does not require any programming skills.


Just follow the 3 simple steps below and your own Text to Voice software will be ready.


1. Open Notepad and copy and paste the following code into it:


Dim message, sapi
message=InputBox("What do you want me to say?","Speak to Me")
Set sapi=CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")
sapi.Speak message
2. Now save the notepad file with the name speak.vbs on your desktop.

3. Now double click on speak.vbs, and type in the box whatever you want your computer to say and that's it!
