Two possibilities come to mind. First, the most-often-given advice on this 
list: Is MS word running maximized? The quick way both to find out and fix is 
to go to the MS Word icon on your desktop (assuming you have one), press 
alt-enter for properties, then tab until you hear the window size. It should 
say "maximized." If not, arrow up or down for that option, then tab to Okay. (I 
can't remember if an Apply button comes up.)

Second, since the problem is erratic, I wonder if there's something in your 
document's format that causes JAWS to stop and start over. I'm assuming this 
problem comes up when you're in "say all." The next time this happens, stop 
JAWS with the control key and see if you can discern anything unusual, such as 
a code or format change, in that sentence.

Well, there's a third possibility, which is that you might need more RAM. But 
with any luck, this isn't the answer.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] a problem with Microsoft word 2010, and jaws 18.

Hi all,

I am writing a book, and in reading my work thus far, I notice that jaws will 
start reading a sentence, get about half way into that sentence, and start the 
sentence over again. It happens randomly, not at any specific time. Is there 
any way to fix this? I have word 2010, jaws 18 and a W10 computer. Thanks for 
your help. Jim
