Chris, That's exactly what I did, but when I try and put the shortcut key into the desktop shortcut for jaws 8 for some reason it won't accept it. I've tried rebooting several times and it still won't work. Cheers.

To solve this, what I did was I went into the shortcut hotkey I had for JAWS 7.0 and deleted it, and then i went into the shortcut hotkey for JAWS 8 and added the same one there, control plus alt plus j. You may have to reboot your computer for the change to take effect, that's what happened to me once. but it worked well.
