Hi Ryan, Strange! I have not experienced the problem that you are having after you waited for Jaws to stop speaking. In fact, when I usually open Excel, I only get the initializing message after I restart Jaws. Normally, Jaws just say "Microsoft Excel Book 1 Sheet 1". I wish that I have an answer for you, but I don't think that it is Jaws. I could be wrong though.
