Microsoft Excel 2007

Hey everyone,

Quick question.........I have to present my paper tomorrow to the class and I noticed that my A+ teacher put a story in Excel and it read it back to the class. Does anyone know how to get that to work?

Not understanding what you're asking...

If you mean a story like a text story? Just copy and paste it / type it into a cell and there you go...but why don't you just use Word for this?

Click the 'Customize Quick Access Toolbar' arrow at the right side of the Quick Access Toolbar.

Choose 'More commands'

In the 'Choose commands from' drop box, set it to 'All commands'

Go down the long list of commands and add the 'Speak cells' command.

Then you can click the Speak Cells button in the Quick Access Toolbar and it will read whatever text is in the cells.


By the way, for future reference, I found that by opening Excel 2007's help and searching for speech. Usually help files are even more helpful than forums.
