     This is a complete application that will speak the time every hour on the hour. It is a good example of using a resource file and of using API calls to play .wav files If you download and install voice clock, please take the time to rate it. Also, I would appreciate any comments that will help me to understand what is good about it and what it lacks. Thank you madwhit@netzero.net

Note: Due to the size or complexity of this submission, the author has submitted it as a .zip file to shorten your download time. Afterdownloading it, you will need a program like Winzip to decompress it.Virus note:All files are scanned once-a-day by Planet Source Code for viruses, but new viruses come out every day, so no prevention program can catch 100% of them. For your own safety, please:
  1. Re-scan downloaded files using your personal virus checker before using it.
  2. NEVER, EVER run compiled files (.exe's, .ocx's, .dll's etc.)--only run source code.
  3. Scan the source code with Minnow's Project Scanner

If you don't have a virus scanner, you can get one at many places on the net including:McAfee.com

I have been trying to do this type of clock myself. With VB6 you get an App called ATM, I've been modifing that to get sounds, but I can't get it to the way I want it. BJ
