Hi there,


I want the voice recorded in a female voice. Can someone fix this for me?

I found this on Wikipedia

Thanks


Code:
Sub TestStringToWavFile()
    Dim sP$, sFN$, sStr$, sFP$
    sP = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\work\"
    sFN = "Mytest.mp3"
    sFP = sP & sFN
    sStr = "I want you to speak with a female voice"
    StringToWavFile sStr, sFP
End Sub


Function StringToWavFile(sIn$, sPath$) As Boolean
    Dim fs As New SpFileStream
    Dim Voice As New SpVoice
    fs.Format.Type = SAFT22kHz16BitMono
    fs.Open sPath, SSFMCreateForWrite, False
    Set Voice.AudioOutputStream = fs
    Voice.Speak sIn, SVSFDefault
    fs.Close
    Voice.WaitUntilDone (6000)
    Set fs = Nothing
    Set Voice.AudioOutputStream = Nothing
    StringToWavFile = True
End Function

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)
