What about if the number you're having read is within a frame?

I've created a frame to read a countdown timer, 
and JAWS always says "zero9, zero8, zero7..." and 
so on instead of simply "9, 8, 7...." It's quite 
annoying and I wish there was a way to tell JAWS 
to say the number minus the proceding zero. Any 
setting I can adjust for this to happen?

I'm using JAWS 11 under Windows 7 Home Premium.
