Voice Selection

The voice selection dialog box allows the voice used by the current application to be selected.  Voices can also be removed and installed using this dialog.

To choose a new voice:

o	Select the voice from the list and press OK.   Voices which are on the CD-ROM will not be listed unless they have been copied to the hard disk or the CD-ROM is present.  After selecting a voice which is on the CD-ROM, you will be asked if you want to copy it to the hard disk.  The voice will always be available if copied to the hard disk.  It will be available only when the CD-ROM is present if you do not choose this option.

To test the selected voice:

o	Select the voice and press the "Test" button.  The phrase "Your schedule is clear today" will play using the selected voice.

To exit without changing the voice:

o	Press Cancel.

To configure a voice:

o	Choose the voice and press the Voice button.  Some voices (such as Make-Your-Own) allow for further configuration.  Others will simply display information about the voice.

To copy a voice from CD-ROM to the hard disk:

o	Select the voice

o	Press the Copy from CD-ROM button.  This button will not be available if the voice cannot be located on the CD-ROM, or if the voice is already on the hard disk.

Note: 	The uncompressed versions of many of the voices are very large, typically 5-10 MB.  You may want to install a compressed version of the selected voice instead.

To remove a voice from the hard disk:

o	Select the voice

o	Press the Remove from hard disk button.  This button will not be available if the voice cannot be located on CD-ROM, or if the voice is not on the hard disk.
