Hi,
I believe in Jaws 9 and above you can do an Insert+V and hit the end key and hit the spacebar to off. To turn Jaws on again, just do an insert+V and hit the End Key and the spacebar to on.

Why not create a mute key to turn speech on and off. For example, I have mine set to insert M. I forgot how I did it (smile). However, Dave has instructions how to do it on the Jaws user site. ----- Original Message ----- From: Øyvind Lode

 or pressing JAWS+Ctrl+s and select No speech and hit enter.
 I find this method to be a fast way to "mute" jaws.
 When I want it to speak again I just press JAWS+Ctrl+s again and select
 eloquence or sapi5 and hit enter.

 I like to select No speech to mute jaws when I listen to music.
