Mike & Barbara: I have written this reply to this suggestion many times. Using the method you suggest, only works as long as the window/program in which you used it does not change in any way. And, I mean in any way. If the window gets refreshed for any reason, JAWS will be unmuted. If a programmed scheduled event is executed by Windows and a new program window is opened, JAWS will be unmuted. I repeat, your suggestion will only work, as long as nothing changes at all, during the time JAWS is muted, using the method you suggest.
