Description Tanya Wolff

Both the "Select Working Set" and "Search Page Selection" dialogs do not say 
the Text under the Title when pressing Ins+B in Jaws. Click Choose working set 
or Customize from any Search dialog to get to these dialogs. 

The first dialog should read "Select Working Set:" and the second dialog should 
read "Select from the pages shown in the dialog" after the title. 

Ins+B should read current window (title and description) as in "New Java Class" 
dialog.

JAWS generally has not been able to read labels in most dialogs for some time. 
Moving to SWT as they are generally looking at JAWS issues

JAWS does read the label when the dialog is opened, but there is a general 
problem with INS+B. INS+B does not speak the MSAA names, even if giving focus 
to the control does. INS+B should speak MSAA names if they are available. I 
have sent this information to Frank, who is communicating with the Freedom 
Scientific folks on our behalf.

CAR if this is a bug in JAWS and they have been informed, we should close it as WONFIX (ie. CANTFIX).

I tried both of these dialogs again under JAWS 12, and INS+B now reads all of the controls, including the label text under the window title.
Closing bug as "Works For Me".
