  it needs the commands.  Let me emplane why.  Most of you on this list just make Dectalk sing for fun.  People who can't talk, have no other way of singing, Dectalk is the only way they have to sing.  I'm one of them, but only one of many.  Today I'm trying to finish "THE HALLELUJAH CHORUS" in 4 part harmony so 4 people with Dectalk can all sing together.  I wanted more parts but I can't find a version of sheet music that has more than 4 parts.

  In any event, there is a serious problem coming up.  I have no idea why, but the 4.40 speak window will not install in the latest update of Windows 7, the en files will not associate with the speak window.  I now have 3 known computers that the speak window will not run on.

  Blake and I have posted about this several times but it keeps getting ignored.  Guys, if we don't solve this problem, and if any of you ever switch computers, you might not be able to run Dectalk.

    thanks both of you for this project. maybe when you guys get the code compiled wright, or the wright code at all, you can make a sapi version of dectalk that is better than the stuff already put out there. maybe a sapi dectalk with not just voices but commands and everything.
