I tried something along those lines of what you wrote in your message, and I
got a compile error. I copied and pasted the text exactly as you wrote it,
but I don't know what I did wrong. Am I supposed to create a new script?
Here's what I put.
Void Function AutoStartEvent ()
SayString("Greetings Annabelle , ")
SayString("you are running Jaws version 10 point 0 0 point 1 1 7 8 U ,")
saystring("Today is")
Say ( SysGetDate(), ot_string)
Say (SysGetTime(), ot_string)
When I press Control+S, I get the following error: "Unknown Variable
"ot_string".

Hi, Darran. I saved the message about changing the JAWS Start-up script.
Below is what was in the text of that message.
To change JAWS startup 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.

Hi List.
Many many moons ago someone once gave directions on how you would go about
altering the JAWS startup message. You could change it in such a way as to
greet you by name and then announce the time, for example.
Yes, this is just a bit of a gimmick, but if there's anyone on the list who
knows what changes must be made to JAWS to make this possible, I'd
appreciate the directions.
Using version 17.
Many thanks.
