You could use the GetTickCount function to set your timer. I haven't experimented with it but you could probably stop speech for a given time using the tickcount function as a timer.

Importance: High Hi guys, I want to create a sleep timer using Jaws scripting. This sleep timer would activate program specific commands or jaws specific commands or both when the specified time is reached. I'd appreciate any ideas how I would go about achieving this.
