[jawsscripts] ReadContinuously

Here is what I have now. For those who have not been following this, I am 
trying to write a script to read the text in a bible program continuously. 
So it would read the first screen then move to the next screen. I have 
schemes set up in the program so when studying you can hear where items you 
can click on are. I want these turned off when reading continuously. right 
now the scheme is changed to classic which means no sounds for the first 
page. Then when it goes to the second page I hear the sounds. then on the 
pages after that there are no sounds. This would not be too bad depending on 
what you were listening to. Some books have a lot of superscripts and 
Scripture references which can be clicked on.



I am also trying to get it to stop reading when hitting a keystroke. I tried 
to stop the scheduled function in the TopOfText function but this does not 
stop the scheduled function.



I thank everyone for the suggestions given so far.
