Post by: MacGlide on November 05, 2006, 05:42:25 PM: The voice comes from MS Office 2003 text to speech.
You just have to type out what you want then evoke the text to speech and record it while it reads your text.

Title: Text to voice
Post by: MacGlide on November 05, 2006, 06:09:39 PM: If you have office, you may have to go to, > Control Panel > Regional Language Settings, to activate the MS language bar. I keep mine off most of the time as it uses allot of resources and runs in the background all the time.
