AndreRyan Posted July 10, 2003 Posted July 10, 2003 I got an SDK for Microsoft Speech Synthesis/Recognition but all the files are MSMs. According to Microsoft, the MSMs are dependency scripts for Windows Installer. But when I put the MSM into the MSI project, I get a build error saying "A module with the dependency signature was not found '**SigIDNum**'" Does anyone know how to install MSM files without needing a project that depends on it?

If your program uses large amounts of memory but releases it when something else needs it, then what's the problem?
*Experts* Nerseus Posted July 10, 2003 *Experts* Posted July 10, 2003 I created a new Windows Setup project type and added the MSM file as a Merge Module (right click the project, select Add->Merge Module). I built the project, and ran the resulting setup.exe. Now I have the new voices installed on my machine (Mike and Mary, free for download from MS). To see them, go to Control Panel, Speech, Text To Speech tab and select the new voice from the Voice Selection Combo. -Ner Quote "I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over.

AndreRyan Posted July 10, 2003 Author Posted July 10, 2003 Heres the Task List showing the build errors BTW. It's just a "Setup Project" with the Merge Module inserted into it then pressing compile Quote .Net allows software to be written for any version of Windows and not break like Unmanaged applications unless using Unmanaged procedures like APIs.

*Experts* Nerseus Posted July 10, 2003 *Experts* Posted July 10, 2003 Not sure what it could be. I downloaded and installed the Speech SDK 5.1 today and installed it. I then downloaded the MSM file (MikeAndMary or MaryAndMike, I can't remember). Then I did as you did, started a new Visual Studio project, chose a Setup project (not setup wizard) and added the MSM file as a merge module. Seemed to compile fine - I made NO other changes to the project. I'm not that familiar with the VS Setup program and even less familiar with merge modules. Good luck though :) -Nerseus Quote "I want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see from the center." - Kurt Vonnegut
AndreRyan Posted July 12, 2003 Author Posted July 12, 2003 I think there was something wrong with the compiler. I reinstalled VS.Net and it worked perfectly Quote .Net allows software to be written for any version of Windows and not break like Unmanaged applications unless using Unmanaged procedures like APIs.
