Can anyone help? >Chuck Weinstock weinstock@sei.cmu.edu >Software Engineering Institute (412) 268-7719 >Carnegie Mellon University (412) 268-5758 (Fax) Chuck, Check out The EnableWindow(HWND, BOOL) Function. All you need to do is call that with the handle to the button window and TRUE for enabled, FALSE for disabled. Also look at the OWL function GetItemHandle(id) to get the handle to the button using its resource id. Good Luck! bytor@carson.u.washington.edu >Pittsburgh, PA 15213
