Hi scot. The insert f12 script can be changet to speak the date and time,
but I have used what I think is a better solution. If you hit insert f12
once you get the time and if you hit it again you get the date. Go into
your default script file and replace your "SaySystemTime()" script with the
following
Script SaySystemTime ()
if (IsSameScript()) Then
SayUsingVoice ( VCTX_MESSAGE, SysGetDate(), ot_string)
Else
SayUsingVoice ( VCTX_MESSAGE, SysGetTime(), ot_string)
EndIf
EndScript
This script eliminates the need of a taskbar clock frame and if the date is
all you use it for then it eliminates the need for TClockX. If you have any
problems please let me know. Good luck.
Thomas
