Vicki's question implies she's aware of this setting, which works with the traditional American format, that is, month, then day, then year. I imagine a UK version of JAWS makes it possible to have JAWS verbalize a date when the format is day, month, year, as is the custom there. I can't think how to make it work for U.S. versions of JAWS, which I believe is what she's looking for.

I think there is a setting where the dates are interpreted by JAWS automatically.

When naming a file with a month, such as January, 2017, when I place the number 01 in front of the word January, so that when I enter February, I can place 02 in front of it, it reads January 1st, rather than 01 and then the words January, 2017. I am unable to find where to make the change so it will read the way I need it to. How is this done? Thank you.
