I type a lot of long documents in MS Word on an XP
machine. Often, I don't have time to have others proof
read my stuff and prefer my readers think my education
wasn't a waste. Many years ago (Windows 3.1 days) I used
to have a little app that would read my text back to me.
It sounded very "computerish" but got the job done. I
could at least catch grammatical and gross spelling
errors.
I've fiddle around with text to speech in Windows XP but
can't make it do very much. Am I on the right track in
assuming this will read back written text? If so, can
anyone point me to instructions (for the lay person) on
how to configure it.
My hardware/software is as follows:
-Intel D845WN MB w/P4 2.0Ghz
-512MB RAM
-MB-integrated sound
-Windows XP Pro SP1 and all the latest updates
-MS Office XP Pro w/SP2
Thanks for your help
