Delete the short cut on the desktop. Then go to jaws 9 in the program list and make a new desktop short cut.

Setting keystrokes even with JAWS in the start menu would probably be the
easiest thing to do since others I share the scripts with will have
different setups. I do have a problem setting up a keystroke with JAWS 9 on
my XP home PC for some reason,though. I have them set up for earlier
versions of JAWS. for some reason the properties dialog just won't accept
anything for a shortcut for JAWS 9.

Maybe too simple but...

Set each Jaws version as an icon on the desktop with different shortcut keys
(Control+Alt+7 for example). Just stop Jaws and then restart with the
relevant shortcut.

Hope that's useful.

Yes, it's possible to write a batch file to do that, certainly under XP (I
have no experience of running batch files under Vista).

  Slightly different commands are needed depending on whether you are
running the current version of JAWS as a service (starting it automatically
at boot time) or not.  If you can tell me that, I should be able to dig out
my old code.
