Anita,

In "user options," there are two items that seem related to your query, one for date processing and another for numeric processing. If you're date processing is set to "some," as mine is, JAWS will say 2006 as we normally speak the year. Perhaps the best way for you to answer these questions is to go into that menu and press insert-F1 on each option. JAWS has a useful set of help messages in the configuration manager.

Hi Anita,
It's Marissa. I think it's a matter of personal preference. You might want to try going into global settings and fooling around with it a bit. I believe there is a feature in there that affects the way Jaws pronounces numbers. If you want to correspond off list my e-mail is:

hi list,
When reading the date, JFW doesn't announce the year correctly. Instead of saying 2006, it's saying two zero zero six. To clarify, the two is spoken as a digit by itself.
in the Text Processing dialog, do setting have to be set specifically, or is it a matter of personal preference? how does one change the different voices?
Thanks.
Anita
