So this is not something that Silverlight will help with.  If you are on a Microsoft Platfrom I would check out the Microsoft Speech SDK 1.5 which is a piece of cake to use!

Re: text to speech

I guess you meant SDK 5.1? I know that Silverlighty doesn't include speech to text. My question was: I am creating Web application based on Silverlight technology. I want text to speech capablities of this application. One of possible solutions is to install corresponding SDK and then use ActiveX, but I am tryting to avoid bot ActiveX and installation. Don't tell me this is impossible - everything is possible.

Re: text to speech

Silverlight offers nothing in this scenario - read my blog for clarification.  You get what you get with any other web client, html / javascript and if you are on a windows os - you could use ActiveX.
