I did it by creating OLE object with Delphi in 2000/NT/XP as following: Voice := CreateOLEObject('SAPI.SpVoice'); Voice.speak(...) But this does not work in Vista, how can I make my program simply speak some text in Vista? François I just tried (D2009 on Vista Home Premium) with the following code and it works! unit Unit1; interface uses Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Variants, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms, Dialogs, StdCtrls, ComObj; type TForm1 = class(TForm) Button1: TButton; procedure Button1Click(Sender: TObject); private { Private declarations } public { Public declarations } end; var

We've all seen it and now I want to do it. How may I go about achieving this effect with a winforms application? alt text http://www.activewin.com/winvista/images/Windows%20Media%20Player%20-%20Taskbar%20Player.png You are probably going to want to start reading about Desk Bands . It's not an easy process, and you won't be able to just put your winforms application in the task bar. It also depends on what version of Windows you want to target, as tommieb75 pointed out, the newer versions of windows have better integrating capabilities. In addition to the above, the Windows v6.1 SDK includes a

I am trying to debug a service in VS 2005 running. Service is running under SYSTEM username. I have opened VS as administrator. The error I am getting is: Unable to attach the process. The system cannot find the file specified I am running on Windows Vista. Maybe the program you are trying to debug is using admin privileges but visual studio doesn't have admin rights. run visual studio as administrator, even if you are logged in as administrator it doesn't automatically have admin privileges. you can do this quickly by right clicking on the short cut of Visual Studio and click Run as

Can I simulate in C#/C++ code Control + Alt + Delete sequence in Vista? When UAC enabled/disabled? How it is done in XP? Can you provide a code sample that works in Vista? Existing code to simulate the Secure Attention Sequence (SAS), which most people refer to as control alt delete or ctrl-alt-del, no longer works in Windows Vista. It seems that Microsoft offers a library that exports a function called SimulateSAS(). It is not public and one is supposed to request it by sending a mail to saslib@microsoft.com. There is a similar library available with the following features: Works both with

So I have noticed this while using a few differnt languages on Windows XP, Vista and 7. If you dump a couple thousand lines a second to the console window it generally has a negative impact on the performance of the system. Computer are fast, and always faster, and the console looks like just some text on a back ground. Where is the bottle neck? printf etc has to go from your process with some sort of IPC to the Console window process (csrss or conhost) The console can also be shared with several processes so there is also some synchronization and buffering going on. 来源： https://stackoverflow

I know a fair bit about the Windows Task Manager in XP, but I would like to understand it better in Vista. What is the difference between "Working Set (Memory)" and "Memory (Private Working Set)". What is the Paged Pool, what is the NP Pool (Non-Paged?). How do I use these to determine what is going on with memory usage? As an aside, when you minimize a program it frequently returns 90% of the memory it is using. Is there any way to do this without minimizing it? This MSDN blog entry might be informative on the first part of the question. A brief excerpt: Working set is the subset of virtual

I would like to control the name of my application as it appears in the UAC dialog. Right now it shows up as something like "MyCompany.MyApp.exe"; I would prefer something like "MyApp Pro". In other words, I would like a short, friendly phrase instead of the raw EXE file name. I noticed that MMC.EXE appears in the UAC dialog as "Microsoft Management Console", so it seems to be possible. But how? There must be a build setting somewhere that controls this, I just can't seem to find it ... Edit: The app is digitally signed. Paul Lalonde After some experimentation, I've found that providing a /d
