hi..
i am working with our project study..it's about text to speech translator..
i was assigned to work with a program that will display the english equivalent of the words of the words in the database that is created by one of my groupmate..
i dont know how to retrieve the english words in the database and put it in the form particularly in the groupbox..
for example the user enter a word in the textbox then when he clicks the speak button, simultaneously, in the groupbox, the english word will be displayed.
how is it?
tnx..=p

Some more details on your project would help us help you better.
You refer to your project as a TTS project, however you mention things about the "english words" in the database. Does this mean the application is also a language translation application?
It sounds like what you want is to be able to enter a word (in another language), have it converted based on a table of translations, then have the final English word spoken via a TTS engine.
I don't understand however where you are coming up with a "groupbox". My definition of a groupbox is the 3D border that can be drawn to enclose a group of controls (with a title printed into its top bar). Perhaps you meant a listbox? If so that listbox would need to be populated from the database source.
Please also tell us how your database is being stored: SQL Express, a backend SQL server, retrieved from a Web page, in a simple CSV file on disk, etc.
And finally, I'll assume you want to use SAPI 5 TTS speech. IF you're using .NET Framework 3.5 classes for SAPI are included in the framework; if you're using 2.0 you'll need to use COM interop to make this work.
