	}
	If ! InStr(FileExist(SaveFolder),"D") {
		SB_SetText("No valid folder provided...")
		Debug(_title " " A_ThisLabel " Error","No valid folder provided...",16)
		GuiControl,,ConvertVar,Con&vert Text To Speech

	}
	If ! FileName {
		SB_SetText("No file name provided...")
		Debug(_title " " A_ThisLabel " Error","No file name provided...",16)
		GuiControl,,ConvertVar,Con&vert Text To Speech
		Return

	SB_SetText("Creating VBScript text...")
	replacement:=StrReplace(example_script,"Example Text...",TxtToCnvrt)
	replacement:=StrReplace(replacement,"replace_fd",SaveFolder)
	replacement:=StrReplace(replacement,"replace_fl",FileName)
	SB_SetText("Checking if old script exists...")

		SB_SetText("Attempting to delete old script...")
		Gosub,DeleteVBS	
	}
	SB_SetText("Writing VBScript to file: " SaveFolder FileName ".vbs")
	Try,FileAppend,%replacement%,%SaveFolder%%FileName%.vbs
	Catch {
		SB_SetText("Could not write " SaveFolder FileName ".vbs to file...")
		Debug(A_ThisLabel " Error","Could not save VBScript to the provided folder.`nMake sure you have the appropriate permissions.",16)

	SB_SetText("Successfully converted your text to speech...")
	TrayTip,%_title% Info,You can find your wav file at: %SaveFolder%%FileName%.wav,10,1
	If FileExist(SaveFolder FileName ".vbs"){

	}
	SB_SetText("Successfully converted your text to speech...")
	Sleep,1000
	Gui,Flash
	SB_SetText("Find your file @ " SaveFolder FileName ".wav...")
	GuiControl,,ConvertVar,Con&vert Text To Speech

Motivation

I use VBScript to convert text to speech very often and so I wrote this to help automate the process.
