Ross,
I followed your instructions and was able to change the voice setting. I was
on reading "most" of the punctuation and changed it to all. I will try it
this way for a time. 
Essentially, though, it does not yet read the green lines that are under
words and spaces that are incorrect. I guess I just have to know all of the
grammar mistakes on my own.
I appreciate your instructions.
More later
Jackie

Jackie,
I believe there may be a shortcut key to toggle the settings for
punctuation, but I can't remember it. Depending on your version of JAWS, the
following directions may vary slightly. Try the following:
1. Access the JAWS window by pressing JAWS key + J.
2. Open the Options menu by pressing Alt + O.
3. Arrow down to "Voices."
4. Open the "Voices" submenu and select "Voice Adjustment." Older versions
of JAWS will say something like "Gloval Voice Adjustment."
5. In this dialog box, tab until you hear the Punctuation combo box and
select "All."
6. Press Enter to save the settings and now JAWS will read all punctuation.

Try that.

Bridgit,
I got on the Purdue website. I found a on-line writing lab, but nothing
fitting the description you give. Can you be specific with the website? And
also I'm not sure of the JAWS options menu as to finding read all of the
punctuation. Perhaps Ross could answer this if you are busy.
Thank you for addressing this. I am going to try a website mentioned to me
called, Grammar Girls.
Jackie
