Hello all-

Is there any way to programatically set voice to female? Rather than going through Control Panel -> Speech?
 

Excel Facts

Which Excel functions can ignore hidden rows?
The SUBTOTAL and AGGREGATE functions ignore hidden rows. AGGREGATE can also exclude error cells and more.
Maybe someone knows of a proper way of doing this.

Here is something I tried in WINXP :

Code:
Sub Test()

    With Application
        .SendKeys "{DOWN}"
        .SendKeys "{ENTER}"
        Shell "CONTROL.EXE SPEECH"
        .Wait Now + TimeSerial(0, 0, 1)
    End With

End Sub

Regards.
