    SAPI5.1 Text To Speech

    Hi,
    I'm trying to learn how to use the SAPI5.1 SDK, and I found a small tutorial online, but I can't seem to compile it. I'm using DevC++ and when I try and compile I get an error from the sapi.h file.
    The errors were...

    2 C:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\Test.cpp In file included from Test.cpp
    3536 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Speech SDK 5.1\Include\sapi.h invalid use of undefined type `struct IServiceProvider'
    90 C:\Dev-Cpp\include\ocidl.h forward declaration of `struct IServiceProvider' .
    C:\Dev-Cpp\Projects\Makefile.win [Build Error] [Test.o] Error 1

    And here is the code I was trying to compile...

    Code:
    #include <sapi.h>
    
    ISpVoice* Voice = NULL;				// The voice interface
    
    int main ( int NumOfArguments, char** Argument )
    {
    	// Initialize COM
    	CoInitialize ( NULL );
    
    	// Create the voice interface object
    	CoCreateInstance ( CLSID_SpVoice, NULL, CLSCTX_ALL, IID_ISpVoice, (void**)&Voice );
    
    	// Speak!
    	Voice -> Speak ( L"Hello World!!!", SPF_DEFAULT, NULL );
    
    	// Shutdown the voice
    	if ( Voice != NULL ) Voice -> Release (); Voice = NULL;
    
    	// Shutdown COM
    	CoUninitialize ();
    
    	return 0;
    }
    Examples code would be helpful if necessary and I got this sample code from this website. http://www.gamedev.net/reference/art...rticle1904.asp
    Thanks,
    Blair
