So would I be able to download that software for free? I'm not real familiar
with programming things having to do with microsoft. I may have 4 years of
C++ in high school programming classes under my belt but that doesn't mean
I'm familiar with that interface.
It can be used for quite a few things, for example, any memorizing exercise.
To be able to take that word file and make an audio file and put it to a CD
and play it over and over while you drive, workout, etc. makes multitasking
easier. I can't really bring my desktop in the car with me and even having a
laptop on all the time can be rough with their limited battery life. Also to
give such files to others who have no intention of ever figuring out how to
make their computer talk to them whether because of ignorance or because of
stubornness.

Maybe you could program something with the "Microsoft Speech Object
Library"... but it would probably much simpler to use some recording
software like http://sourceforge.net/projects/audacity and choose "Wave" as
the source, while you let the Word macro read the text.
Not sure why you'd want to: The resulting *.wav file will be much, much
bigger than the original text document, which you can have read to you at
any time...

Okay, so I can now speak the text. How about saving the spoken text to an
audio file?

software?
