MS Agent

[Kim K]

My boss asked me to get info on MS Agent, I have never wowrked with this
before so I am unfamiliar with it, I went to MS Agent site and got the
necessary utilities and thay are working as confirmed on MS Site testing the
agents and voice etc.

I need to know how to activate it to use it and choose the character say in
PP, I am thinking that it is used in conjunction with scripting of sorts, but
I am at a loss. Can someone please give me some insight and info on how to
activate and use this?

Easy way to do it is to check into Vox Proxy. URL is:

That looks very nice, I certainly wish that the federal governemtn had not
cut educational funding!

Is there a way to do this easier or with any of the scripting builti into PP?

There should be some instructional documents (a Word file and a sample PPT
file, IIRC) on the MS Agent webring. You'll have to do the script coding by
hand, in PPT's notes area. It's tedious, but yeah, it's doable.

Oh, http://www.msagentring.org/setup.aspx leads to
http://www.microsoft.com/products/msagent/default.asp There's a ton of stuff
there, but I don't know if the Word and PPT docs are there. Seems Agent
became more complicated since I last played with it! Probably someone on the
Agent forums can help, though. Head to the Agentring.org site and hit
"support forums" on the left.
