How To Make Your Computer Talk In Visual Basic 2008

[BOS6940]

I didn't make the text to speech thing, instead I used the voice commands to add a speech interface to one of my apps, thanks mate. You earned a subbie :)

[00oDaRkAnGeLo00]

Thank You so much for this useful video. but I have a question what if I add a long text to the Textbox and while the program read the text in the middle I want to stop it or pause it not end the program. So what should I do?

Thanks

First time, I worked with this code, I could hear what I wrote on the textbox... But suddenly it stopped, I can't hear anymore, no sound.

---CODE---

Private Sub ToolStripStatusLabe2_TextChang­ed(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Dim SAPI SAPI = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice") SAPI.Speak(ToolStripStatusLabe­l2.Text) End Sub

It worked before, but not anymore :/

[TehAnimatorKing]

OMG dont worry it works now YOU FIXED IT!!!!

[TehAnimatorKing]

hey can you help me, i cant get it to work on 2010 :(

[zaNNSurfCSS]

Type this in the button1 code

Dim SAPI

SAPI = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")

SAPI.Speak(TextBox1.Text)

Type this in the button2 code

Me.Close()

[TheHunranger]

[Thebignoobshow]

Dude, is there another sound? I hate this lady talkiing.

[kenny12101]

@Thebignoobshow thats how my computer (win 7) is but its male on my win xp

[Thebignoobshow]

Hey, why all youtubers put songs in their video and they don't know what's the name of the song? So how do you put it, vote up if you agree me.

[Tuggummiponken]

LoL

[brent4218]

Sweet tutorials GOOD JOB DUDE

Quick question though, How do you change the voice?

[natboy101]

can you make it talk slower

[tekriavideos]

i created a program thats talks to you with this :)

if textbox1.text = "a question" then

Dim SAPI

SAPI = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")

SAPI.Speak("an ansew")

else

' do nothing

end if

[MrBlading4ever]

@tekriavideos because your ment to have

Dim SAPI

SAPI = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")

SAPI.Speak(TextBox1.Text)

not (if textbox1.text="aqwestion" then and else ' do nothing

[NPwrestler103]

@NiboRRobiN86 oh det. det går nog inte att göra med nån text to speech

[mlbmills]

can you change the pich

[MagicRevealer09]

Sweet!

[TechBoywii]

@XboxGlitchesModsTuts FUCK YOU

[Pad6]

Nice, got it to work better if it's after anyhting else, such as the form backcolor on load. Works great on close as well, SAPI. Speak ("Good Bye")

So I guess, in closing, this Dim Sapi can be used on form load, button click, timer, and on close as well as others I'm sure. Too bad C# voice code isn't nearly as easy. EN you rock!

[Pad6]

ok so it was easy,

Form1_load Dim SAPI SAPI = (CreateObject("sapi.spvoice")) SAPI.Speak("Whatever you want to say"

my only issue is that it says the words THEN it shows the form, I would like to do both at the same time so just in case the sound is off they don't think there is a problem with the form.

[pangher0]

try this code

Dim Speech Speech = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice") Speech.speak("welcome") Timer1.Enabled = False

put it in a timer..this code will only be called once, every time the form is loaded..

just add a timer into your form and set its ENABLED property to TRUE and INTERVAL to 1 to

if you have better code just post it..because I,myself, haven't tried this code yet.. :p

[bassdude4eva]

Okay, two things;

1) You put all the code in one line.

2) It's called the Form1_load event. Adding a friggen timer is a waste of time and space. Just double click on the form and type:

Dim Speech

Speech = CreateObject("sapi.spvoice") Speech.speak("welcome")

[Pad6]

can we chagne the speed of the voice. Great tut by the way. got it to work in under a minute.

Decided to use a combo box so I could have a few sentences premade for showing it off.

also added a clear button

cboinput.Text = ""

and an exit button Me.Close()

But now I want to have it say things to the teacher on form load. Such as: "I have no idea how to do this!", or "sorry this is late, my virtual dog ate it.".

[marky2048]

bad theme, vista theme to xp, haha...succk

[DeanNirvana]

instead of this fucking loud music, i'd prefer a clear tutorial cause it's not easy to follow the instructions just by following the cursor, many things are not explained ! this is frustrating!

[sxme25]

thanks. i did myself and all are working properly.

[TsopiLordConqueror]

[halo2psp]

It keeps comming up with errors when i try to debug. can you help me?

[Linkminer]

Nice,

Im pretty new to VB and I have to say I learned more from this little SAPI call than I did from the VB videos. I had a blast with this in writing a microprocessor program. I used it to guide the user in setting the inputs for the MC controller. It worked great.

Thanks

You can also use the narrator found in , start>all programs>accessories>accessibi­lity> narrator. Then look for shortcuts to speak and open notepad and type anything. then click the hot key. Then it speaks.

[ILUXONCHIKFILMS]

How do i make my PC talk with man voice?

Cuz my talks with women voice!

[TomboFry]

I'm guessing you have Vista. Vista has a default voice of a woman. I don't have Vista though. XP by default is Microsoft Sam.

[ILUXONCHIKFILMS]

Yah! iM vista user thx!

[XBLXxR1fleManxX]

thanks its not hard at all XD

[thehunnted]
