MATLAB: Audio from text in app designer input box

audio

Hi everyone,
As of right now, I have a MATLAB app designer app that has an input screen where whoever runs the app is able to type whatever they want into it and click a button to display their text on the panel that becomes visible (covers the input box). Is there a way to code in that the computer will speak the text they type into the input box when the "enter" button is pressed? I found this code (not mine) online and am thinking there is a way to add parts of this to my code and make the audio work.
% Program to do text to speech.
% Get user's sentence
userPrompt = 'What do you want to say to the patient?';
titleBar = 'Text to Speech';
defaultString = 'Type in a message you want the patient to hear!';
caUserInput = inputdlg(userPrompt, titleBar, 1, {defaultString});
if isempty(caUserInput)
  return;
end % Bail out if they clicked Cancel.
caUserInput = char(caUserInput); % Convert from cell to string.
NET.addAssembly('System.Speech');
obj = System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer;
obj.Volume = 100;
Speak(obj, caUserInput);
Thanks in advance!

Figured it out actually!
Just had to add the lower part of the clip of code I attached:
caUserInput = char(app.finished_message.Value); % Convert from cell to string.
         NET.addAssembly('System.Speech');
         obj = System.Speech.Synthesis.SpeechSynthesizer;
         obj.Volume = 100;
         Speak(obj, caUserInput);
into the callback function for the "DONE" button - the button they would press to display their input text.
