Hi Have you tried Microsoft Speech tool itself? I don't know your client's needs but from what you are saying Windows Text to Speech tool may be a good place to start. You need to go to control panel and then select speech. Hope this is helpful.

[mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Lewis, Tony Sent: 14 December 2009 09:15 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Key board access to obtain communication. I know of a client who has had a bleed on the brain and is left with a stroke. His family have been practicing with him using a standard key board . He can use the key board fairly well but family were wondering if this could be taken to the next stage , i.e. Speech. The family seem to be struggling with any professional input on this , and I do not know the full story .Question ;- Is there any guidance you can give . Family would be prepared to fund privately if push comes to shove. Many thanks and Seasons Greetings . Tony Lewis.
