Wow, That's pretty bizarre but I'll try it.

I'm not running JAWS 10, but I have had similar issues. One of the things I try 
that I haven't seen listed yet, is to alt-f3 to turn the codes on and off a 
couple of times. Almost always fixes the problem.

I have noticed that working in a new Duxbury document, into which I wrote some 
names and phone numbers, JAWS would stop reading the text and just report blank 
lines. I maximized the screen, set the view to full page, refreshed the screen, 
all to no avail. Next, I pasted from Duxbury into an email message, this same 
document's text, and JAWS behaved in the same manner. If I arrowed down through 
line by line, JAWS would start announcing blank lines. If I went to the end of 
the text then arrowed up, some of the text was there again, but not in a 
consistent way. It was very weird.
