Good morning,
Depending on which country or jurisdiction you are in it is perfectly
legal to reverse engineer an application for personal or educational
purposes.
But, editing the binary file that contains that message will at the
best allow you to change the static message, not replace it with a
dynamically generated one.
HTH,
Everett

I do agree with you Kate but my previous statement stands for
anybody who
might ever consider posting such information on here. Such people
will be
removed from this list and also banned from ever returning.

Just a thought, but I'm wondering why your unwilling to share. If a
person
is learning something like this and your at least willing to give the
warning that it may cause certain problems, then it's really up to
them to
proceed or not proceed with the information. If they make the file
unusable,
could they not repair jaws and go from there? I mean, at least to
me, this
seems to be a listserve where people can ask questions and learn
from one
another. It seems sort of odd to say yes you can do procedure X and
then
saying up front, I ain't tellin you how. That kind of responce sounds
elitist at best and snobbish at worst. If your really worried about
someone
being angry at you if they don't do the procedure correctly, then
just don't
bring it up in the first place.
It just doesn't seem right for someone to decide what information
another
person can or can't comprehend and use effectively. We all get
responces
like this day in and day out from sighted people who second guess our
abilities. Doesn't make sense to do the same sort of thing to each
other
here, too. We should all be adult enough to know our own level of
comfort
with our computer tinkering skills. And we should all be adult
enough to
know how to handle the consequences of anything we do decide to try.
This is only my opinion on the matter. I know others might disagree
and
that's fine. I just wanted to put in my own two cents.

you can't do it with scripting. it can only be done with a hex
editor, and no I won't tell you what file to do it to or what to look
for to remove it.
Because if you don't know what you are doing the file can be come
unusable.

Aha! Unfortunately no. That startup message is hard wired into the
coding
of Jaws. I have no idea where you'd go in the scripting to remove
that
start up message.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Scripting: Personal Jaws Startup
Hi Group,
A few years back, someone sent me some scripts to personalized my
Jaws
startup. I've found that I can't use these scripts in Jaws 10.
I'll
post
them below. Maybe someone can point out what changes need to be
made
to
make these scripts work with Jaws 10. I'm just starting to learn
scripting
and I'm not familiar with how to update these scripts to make them
work
with
Jaws 10. Any input would be appreciated.
Jack
If you would like for Jaws to give you the time and date at
startup,
do
the
following.
1. press Insert+0.
2. Press ctrl+shift+D.
3. press ctrl+L
4. Arrow down untill you hear autostart event.
5. press enter
6. down arrow untill you find the following 2 lines
endIf
endIf ; DefaultFirstTime == 0
7. just above where it says, EndIf, create a blank line. You do
this
by
putting your cursor on the E, in EndIf, then hitting enter. Now
arrow
up
once to the blank line you just made.
Now, paste in the following text. Remember to personalize the user
name.
SayString("Hello user name, Today is")
Say ( SysGetDate(), ot_string)
Say (SysGetTime(), ot_string)
SayString("Have a good day!")
** Note that you can change the last line to say whatever you want.
"Have
a
good day" is just an example.**
8. Now hit ctrl+S to recompile the scripts.
9. You can now hit alt-F4 to close the scripts.
