Ed's is a better suggestion, but it also applies only to the current
application. 
 
The other method, control pageup/pagedown doesn't work on my system. 
 
What the JAWS key-1 keystroke identifier says about each of the three
methods is interesting and not entirely clear to me.

I did used the keyboard help command. But alas, I couldn't guess the actual
key stroke. But thanks anyways! You are a life savor!

OK
Control plus Alt plus page up and page down increase and decrease speed
on-the-fly.
I love Jaws Key plus 1.  That is the keyboard help command.  Once pushed,
the keys on the keyboard say their function.  So, If I've forgotten a
command, I an go into the keyboard help mode, make a couple of educated
guesses, and come away with the command I'm looking for.

As you say, pageup and pagedown work during "say all." However, once you've
changed speed in "say all," JAWS maintains that rate when "say all" has
stopped. could this be a workaround for you? In other words, start "say
all," find the desired speed, stop "say all" and keep working with JAWS at
that new rate.

Does anyone of you know of a key stroke that increases and decreases the
speed of jaws on the fly? I know that pressing page up and page down (I
think) while using a read-all command jaws speaks faster and slower
respectivily. But I want a keystroke that increase and decrease speed at any
time. If any could help me I will be greatly thankful.
