Writting an application to learn chinese in VFP

Hello:

I use VFP7 SP1 and am writing an application which must read chinese
traditional and simplified texts using TTS.

I'd done this in english and spanish using Ms Agent. Now in chinese I dont
know how to do it. I dont know TTS chinese engines as microsoft offers.

Does some one can help me?

With best regards.

Microsoft SAPI 5.1 contains simplified Chinese TTS. In Windows XP sold to
some local government PCs, this TTS is included there. Extracted below is
the register item:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\Tokens\MSSimplifiedChin
eseVoice]
@="Microsoft Simplified Chinese"
"CLSID"="{AE2CF4DB-3697-45F4-9787-0FC5A37BEB36}"
"409"="Microsoft Simplified Chinese"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Voices\Tokens\MSSimplifiedChin
eseVoice\Attributes]
"Name"="Microsoft Simplified Chinese"
"Gender"="Male"
"Age"="Adult"
"Language"="804"
"Vendor"="Microsoft"

If you use Windows XP as well, you can do this just as you do with the
English TTS.

That company offers a freeware version of SmartRead. The English version of
the website is also available.
