HI joseph
I found out what the problem was why the translation option didn't want
to work. First of all, regardless whether some translation or extended
translation is selected, if either of those 2 options are enabled,
dates will only be recognized when there is a dash; not when year,
month and day is separated with any other character such as a slash or a
period and some agents even separate year, month and date with spaces.
So that doesn't work for me. Also when either some or extended
translation is selected, and a date is written 2007-01-19 jaws would
read it as January 19 2007.
I prefer only to hear: 19 january as its obvious that the year is 2007.
if a date like 2006-01-19 is in a service request yes then its ok if
jaws pronounce it as January 19 2006.
But all right I can still cope with hearing 2007. The big problem is: it
doesn't recognize characters other than the dash as a seperation
character.--
