so the number at the end tells the scheduled function how long to wait
before it is run? the lines are different lengths and then you have others
who might use the scripts who have JAWS set at different speeds so I don't
guess this idea works. If the number was set too long then the lines would
be disjunct since I was thinking of recreating a SayAll so that the NextLine
doesn't go off and run away while JAWS is still trying to say the lines. It
catches up but skips a page or two while doing so.

| That depends on how long the line is which is to be spoken. What Jaws
does
| is to launch the Sayline function, then immediately launch the scheduling
| part of ScheduleFunction. You have asked in your code for three-tenths
of
| a second to pass before the NextLine function is called, so if Sayline
takes
| longer than that to speak, NextLine will be called before the speaking is
| fully over. If that happens, and if you can tell it has, you could always
| increase the value of the second parameter of ScheduleFunction, to give
more
| delay.
