Hi there,
By default, JAWS doesn't do it but thanks to
Chris Skarstad there is now a script for it.
I think it can be used with all JAWS
versions.
Cheers,
Joseph

i mean a single keypress of f12 reads both
date and time as in NVDA.

came out. It was there ever
since then.

The ability to speak the time and date is a
standard feature of JAWS 7.0 and
above. I can't remember if it was there
before that.
Press the JAWS key and f12 and JAWS *should*
speak the time. Press f12 twice
while holding the JAWS key down and you
*should* get the date.

Hello Chris,
Could you possibly please e-mail me a copy
of this say time and date
script that you have? What version of Jaws
are you using? Any help with
this would be muchly appreciated. Thanks.
Kindest regards,
Hank Merchant Jr.

David, you rock!!!
This worked great, although I must admit the
first time I tried it, I
forgot to capitalize the v in SayUsingVoice,
and I had to repair JAWS but
that wasn't much of a problem, that only
took a couple minutes. but now
when I press jaws key plus f12, it says, and
I quote, "It is 9:32 PM
Monday, August 27th, 2007. That's cool.
Thanks so much.

Just to add to my previous message.
You could modify the
SaySystemTime script but I think the code
that I wrote in my earlier
message
is easier. However, the SaySystemTime script
is the one you want to
modify
if you want to do it that way.

SayUsingVoice ( VCTX_MESSAGE, "it is

Just put the above in desired script and
assign keystroke to it. Easy as
pie. E.G.
Script test ()
SayUsingVoice ( VCTX_MESSAGE, "it is

Subject: getting the time and date with one
press of insert f12
Hi folks, I'm pretty sure
this is a scripting issue, and
I've never
been able to wrapp my mind around the
scripting language, all accept
for code that I've gotten from other folks
and put to use
myself. But like the subject line says, I've
noticed that other
screenreaders give you the time and date with
one press of a hot
key. With JAWS, you have to press insert f12
twice to do this. So,
is there a script, or some other type of
modification I can make so
that JAWS will say, 1:32 PM on August 27th,
2007?
Note the time I gave is my current time just
as an example. I'm
pretty sure this can be done, but I've never
understood why JAWS
doesn't do this too.
Thanks for any help.
