I'm tied up right now, but if this works, I'm gonna have a riot with an inter-office application I'm writing for vibration data post processing! My errordlg messages already insult you for making mistakes!

Thanks in advance!

[Dimitri Shvorob]

:))) Neat!

[Elior Shenhav]

Wow

[Mark Brown]

How is this any different than the file (speak.m) posted here in 2004? Both use the ActiveX interface to MS Excel.

[Matthew Teow]

Well done :)

Came back with the error:

Error: Object returned error code: 0x800A03EC

Error in ==> say at 7
cell.Speak; % Amazing!

This is even though I have Excel installed.

The error may due to different Voices available in Your Windows system. You can check at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Speech\Voices\Tokens
For me, its Microsoft Sam. So change this line in say.m will be fine.
else
    voicestr = 'Name=Microsoft Sam';
end
