Hi Darran,
I found a note in the Jaws help indicating that Jaws now follows the rules
set in the regional settings for the date and, presumably, the time.
The main problem here is that the date, as you have it written, doesn't
match the standard UK setting for the date and time. Also Jaws is trying to
make sense of a partial date followed by a correctly formatted time field
and is coming to the wrong conclusion.
You could try playing around with the date and time setting in the custom
settings in the date and time tabs in the regional settings from the control
panel but you might end up with worse problems elsewhere.
Sorry,
Phil Medway.

Hi List.
I'm hoping someone has a solution to this one. I've been all through the
various configuration settings in version 7, but haven't hit on the right
one yet. Here's the situation.
When JFW sees 08 April 15:00 - 0 8 A p r i l 1 5 colon zero zero - instead
of announcing 8 April three O'clock, it says stuff like 8 April fifteenth o
o. When I changed it in the JFW dictionary to read 1 5 0 0 as 3 O'clock, JFW
then came up with 8 April third o o !
I realise that this message is probably making your head hurt, if you've got
this far, and that depending on your chosen selections you may be hearing
something completely different. Oh Dear God, this is just going from bad to
worse!
Anyway, in closing, does anyone know how I can make JAWS say 8 April three
O'clock in this situation?
Many many thanks if you've seen this through to the bitter end. You'll get
your reward in a better place!
Darran
