Here is how to add to the start-up message.
with JAWS loaded:
1. press JAWS key 0 to go to the script editor
2. press shift control D to bring up the default script
3. locate the
Void Function AutoStartEvent ()
4. add the following lines just before the EndFunction statement
SayString("Greetings John Smith , ")
SayString("you are running Jaws version 7 point 0 0 point 1 3 5 U ,")
saystring("Today is")
Say ( SysGetDate(), ot_string)
Say (SysGetTime(), ot_string)
5. change John Smith to whatever you want and change the version number to
whatever version you are running
6. save the script with control s
It should compile correctly otherwise correct any errors and resave.

Subject: interesting thread about changing jaws
greetings all james here in denver, several years ago when i was taking
computer courses in pensylvania, one of our projects was to change
certain
things in the ini file so when it came up it would say a diffrent phrase,
what i would like is a way to when jaws starts it would say good morning
the
date is such and such the time is currently such and such that would be
cool, now i know lot of people wouldn't like that but a nice option for
those wishing it.
my msn is happy_james_2454@xxxxxxxxxxx
