Hi Iain and everyone,
Not exactly sure why this should make a difference but I've been messing
around with the Voice Options and, when I selected a different voice
profile, the problem resolved itself. Even if I now set it back to the
Eloquence, it stays working OK.
When I first tried it, I hadn't installed the RealSpeak voices. I then
installed the voices, changed the voice profile for FS Reader and everything
started working. As I say, now, if I change it back, it works fine with
Eloquence!!
Most odd but glad it seems to have resolved itself.
Jamie

I have Net Plextalk on my machine. FS Reader is by far preferable.
