Can you do this with your own custom sounds?

[SnailWrangler]

You mean just to play your own sounds in general? Like beeps ect.

Some Random woman

@SnailWrangler - It is NOT some random woman, actually it is Microsoft Anna, an alternative to Microsoft Sam.

Win XP : Microsoft Sam

Win 7 : Microsoft Anna

i enjoy your video

On windows vista the built in Text-to-Speech doesn't use Microsoft Sam it uses Microsoft Anna. The code uses the default for the OS. So if you used the program on Windows XP, you would hear Microsoft Sam.
