There might be a way to do that with Microsoft Word Installed, rob would know all about this. I wonder where he is...

Sounds like you are looking for a third party program to do this and not write a program yourself.

In that case a google search should turn up the most popular searched programs for that. :)

try searching for "text to speech", weren't there free libraries from ms around a while ago Robdog?

something like this?

Yes, but we need clarification from the original poster to see if its something third party purchasable or something to be programmed/written as custom. ;)

custom :-)

get famous people to do the voices :D
