This code works... I just want to change the voice to one of the more realistic ones. I don't like Microsoft Sam that much.. Any ideas what I need to change? I do have the Lernout & Haupsie Truvoice engine installed 

sub talk
    {
        local $txt = $_[0];
 
        use Win32::OLE;
 
        local $voice = Win32::OLE->new("Speech.VoiceText") or die("TTS
+ failed");
 
        $voice->Register("", "$0"); 
        $voice->{Enabled} = 1; # optional
 
        $voice->Speak($txt,  1);
 
        while ($voice->IsSpeaking()) 
        {
            sleep 1;
        }
    }

Don't -- me without telling me why. If you asked a stupid question, I wouldn't down vote you.
