Text to Speech using Windows?

Featured Replies

I'm moving from FM Pro 7 under MacOS to FM Pro 7 under XP (well, I will also use FMPro 8 under XP)

How do I get the Speak Script Step to work?

Yes, I know that the script step < Speak ("phrase") > does not exist under the Windows XP versions of Filemaker.

But is there any way to make a script make a voice announcement under Filemaker / Windows XP?

Thanks! -Cliff

*******, im missing out, MAC TALKS TO YOU!?!?! lol that would just be fun. Freak out my users. Oh well...

god i hate this filter, since when is the word D A M N a swear word anyway.

It wasn't censored before your tirade.

:o

Must be kid friendly. Too bad the kid doesn't appreciate it! :o

Cliff,

I don't have a Windows version to try, but you may be able to record some audio into a container field, then play it using the Go to Field [ Select/Perform ] step.

Oh come-on, i said i was sorry, can't we just make me promise not to do it, and ban me if i say a really bad word?

Who do i have to talk about to apologize and try get this filter off? I don't think its fair that everyone be punished cause i said a bad word once. I mean other than me (and im being nicer now :o) everyone on this forum behaves. Or could we at least get the words D AMN, H ELL etc. unbanned. I get depressed if i cant unstress with words like this. Pretty Pretty please, any who, tell me who i've got to appologize to, and i really will behave

This Forum is provided to solve problems, help people and answer questions. So I will ...

"can't we just make me promise not to do it..."

Here is how:

Go To Record/Request [ head ]

Loop

Show Custom Dialog [ "Help, "Me" ; " Am I saying this for ME or to HELP someone?" ]

If ( Get ( HeadChoice ) = 2

Halt Headtrip

End If

Exit Loop [ If ( not peopleToHelp ) ]

End Loop

... put the rest of your actions here :beertime:

You (and others) may say you're just a kid and let you off the hook. I do NOT. You are very bright; after all, you are here. Write the rest of the script yourself sir ... you will be the one cleaning up your own data if it's wrong. :wink2:

Lol, your great LaRetta. True, i do get let off the hook far to often, though i am awfull confused about your script ( though ill assume its a metaphore for something :o ), i am trying to behave myself... Really.

~Genx

i am trying to behave myself... Really.

We ALL are ... and it's not always easy for ANY of us. But you'll find it quite worthwhile. :wink2:

Sorry Ender, you're comment went over my head (i'm to short at 6 foot 2 :o) sorry, last immature comment i promise.
