Unfortunately for me, I have tried what you have suggested, and it still will not recognize the voices for whatever strange reason. You mentioned Windows 7, are you yourself using Win7? I am using win8.

I really would love for this to work, because if it did, I would certainly purchase the IVONA software and a couple of voices, because I love this TTS concept. The default voice I can deal with, but these IVONA voices do sound better.

Edited to add: Ok, I went ahead and gambled and purchased the voice Joey, and thankfully it worked beautifully. I am very pleased with it.
