Hi Terra.  I like how you spell that with an E not an A by the way.

The say-all command in Jaws is INSERT+DOWN ARROW. You can have Jaws switch to another voice for Say All as well, if you want, such as a higher quality Sapi 5 voice for casual reading of longer documents. Go into Jaws, Voices, and tab until you get to the options for Say All.

You can fast forward during a Say All with right arrow or right shift, rewind with left arrow or left shift. To increase the speech rate for the current voice during a Say All, press PAGE UP, PAGE DOWN decreases it.

Another reading mode you might want to experiment with is skim reading.
Start Skim Reading CTRL+INSERT+DOWN ARROW
Skim Reading dialog box CTRL+INSERT+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW
Display Skim Reading Summary INSERT+WINDOWS Key+DOWN ARROW
