Having Text to Speech read a document back to me? How?

P

Patrick

Hello - I am going to have to proofread a heap of information in the next
month - I would like to hear the text to speech read my info back to me from
Word 2003. Any help? Most of the information I can find uses ALT + T + H to
setup speech recognition - but I don't want the computer to recognize my
voice, just have it read the document back to me.

It would be a huge time saver, and thanks ahead of time for taking the time
to answer.

Hi Patrick,

Text to Speech in MS Office is basically an Excel
spreadsheet tool so you can proof read against
a printed copy 'hands free' but you can adapt it
to work with MS Word. This article may help:

You can also use the Windows XP Text-to-speech
feature:
