Yes, I am using the following event to keep from having so many text items
but I also have one just like you mentioned.  But it sounds Like Mark G.
found something he didn't like in that area.  If he gets much faster at some
of these fixes we won't even be able to ask for them.  The Speak/W works
great.

Are you doing ant TTS by having ECS read from a file?  When I have the text
as part of the actual item ECS reads that just fine, it is only the file
reading where I have a problem.

Is anybody else having an issue with the insertion point?  I suppose this
could be unique to my machine.

The Speak->VC/W would certainly work.  It seems to me that ECS needs to
process things in order, irrespective of that command.  In my case, and I am
sure others, the announcement of the caller comes before the answering of
the call.

I am speaking text files extensively and they seem to be working

My insert and delete are also working properly

And even though ECS is doing exactly what was advertised ( TTS
concurrently ) speech takes up time and ECS has already answered the phone
before the Speech has really got started.  In my case it was at shutdown the
System would cut off the message I had play on exit and shutdown.  This can
be corrected with a pause xx.
But if it can be done without too much trouble it would be nice to have a
Speak->VC/W command.

Also (some where in the future) it might be nice to have pages take place
concurrent with program execution.
