Do you mean screen readers for the blind? If so I have done some work with these and they are usually implemented to read the text of the control with the focus (i.e. when tabbing around the dialog) or the text under the mouse. As both the checkbox and label have the same text then yes this implementation will work. Neil Neil Sleightholm X2 Systems Limited n...@x2systems.com <mailto:n...@x2systems.com>

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Option checkbox in ExitDialog isn't transparent What about screen readers? The reason WiX doesn't do this is that we've been told that accessibility gets broken doing this sort of thing. Now none of us are accessibility experts so if someone that is says this work around does the correct thing with all the various accessibility devices then we can do that. Until then I really do not feel comfortable building UI's by default that fail accessibility. That totally goes against what we are about.
