Voice File Information Records

A voice file information record specifies the file in which a voice is stored and the resource ID of the voice within that file.

In Pascal, the VoiceFileInfoPtr data type defines a pointer to a voice file information record.

   fileSpec:   FSSpec;     {volume, dir, and name of file}
   resID:      Integer;    {resource ID of voice in the file}
END;
