Text to speech nonfunctional in standalone

[Marian Petrides]

Addendum to previous

If I add a second field to accept text from the following command 
(placed in the button's mouseUp handler in addition to the revSpeak 
command):   put whatText into field "debug"

Entire button script follows:

On mouseUp
   Put field "TextToSpeak" into whatText
   RevSpeak whatText
   put whatText into field "Debug"
end mouseUp


In the IDE:   the text entered into the first field gets spoken and 
appears properly in the second field ("debug")
In the standalone: No speech, no text placed into field "debug"

What gives?  Evidently there is some difference between the IDE and the 
standalone that prevents the contents of the first field from being 
properly captured and presented to the speech routine but also prevents 
it from being passed to the second field.  But I can't figure out 
why??????
