When I press the jaws key and f12 twice I get what I think of as the day of the week. Like today is Tuesday. I am told Tuesday and then April 5th 2011. Isn't Tuesday the day of the week or am I mis-understanding? Eileen From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Ian D.

When I press JAWS key + F12 twice with JAWS 12, I get only the day, month and year, not the day of the week. In fact, to get the day of the week for any date that you choose randomly, would I think need a program specially developped to do that. One may well exist, but I am not acquainted with it. The GetLocalTime function will fill a systemtime structure with information about the current moment, and that includes the day of the week. I hope that this helps at least a bit.

It's fine to have the date but I'd also like to know what day any calendar date is. Bob
