Hi All,
Obviously what we hear when we double-click JAWS + F12 is not the same for all
of us, so it must be controlled by the current configuration. I don’t hear the
day of the week (i.e., Tuesday for today).
I interpreted Bob’s statement “any calendar date” as meaning any
date, not restricted to the current one.
All the best,
Ian

Since some of us (me included *do* hear the day of the week with Insert+F12
twice, I think the answer is in the control panel, under regional settings then
standards and format/customize/Date page. I believe there you can dictate the
default date format.
I'm using XP pro by the way.

Hi Robert,
What you are asking – the day of the week as compared with the current date –
is not readily available. 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.
All the best,
Ian

How do I get Jaws and Windows xp to tell me the day of the week? It's fine
to have the date but I'd also like to know what day any calendar date is.
