Hi,

You can use the speech sdk 5.1 for that.

As I see it it's only for VB6 and C++ - is that true ?

Hi,

You can use it with vb.net. I have written apps that used its text
to speech functions.

I need to react to the call, play a WAV-file, react to the caller pressing
keys.

What shall I have to do that ?

Do you have SIMPLE sample code ?

Hi,

IMO, you are best off using a commercial add-on. The ones that I know of a
COM (ActiveX controls), but will work in .NET. For example, amTAPI
(www.allen-martin-inc.com) and TeleTools (www.exceletel.com). There are
others for Dialogic boards, etc., so depending on what you want to do, and
what hardware you are using, you may want to investigate more. The few
hundred $ that these cost will be paid back in time saved on just the first
day (again, IMO).
