HRESULT SetVolume(
   USHORT 	usVolume
);

Parameters

usVolume
[in] Value containing the requested volume level. Volume levels are specified in percentage values ranging from zero to 100 - values outside this range may be truncated.

Return values

Value Description
S_OK Function completed successfully.
E_INVALIDARG One or more parameters are invalid.

Remarks

SetVolume affects the volume of synthesized WAV data; it does not affect the volume of the .WAV file that is played back. Volume is specified as a percentage of the maximum volume of the current voice. Different voices may have different maximum volume levels.

Applications can adjust the volume of a voice either through this function call, or through XML grammar passed to the voice with the input text of a speak call. The voice should combine volume adjustments made in these two ways to arrive at a final volume.
