Anyone remember the name of that program...

when you ran it through email a Genie would pop up and read your email to
you? I think you could get it to read other docs too.

dunno but I'd say there's a good chance it was one of these apps:

I think Micro$oft Agent is what you are looking for.

I've heard a title similar to what you have described,
called"OESpeaker",which runs in outlook express,but I don't think it
can works in other docs,
or you can use TextAloud, which is a cool text to speech application,

the best I can do I'm afraid!

good luck!

Using Microsoft agent this can be done.

Try to ask in microsoft.public.msagent if no answer here.

That is it, thank you very much. I know thats it because as well as Genie it
also had Merlin but it must have been purchased by MS because when I used
it, it was just a small company giving it away.
