Emmit, That is not how any of the languages I've used for windows work.
When you reenable a container, the enabled properties of all its controls are exactly what they were when you disabled it. The purpose of disabling a container is to temporarily make all the controls on it untouchable. It is a very powerful system, making for a lot less code.

It makes sense to me that if you enable a container that all its contents would inherit that condition. After all, if you disable the container don't you expect its contents to also be disabled?

Some of the controls on the panel are disabled. I disable the panel. I enable the panel. The controls are no longer disabled. This is not the expected behavior. Anyone know a simple fix, besides writing code to save and reestablish the correct enabled property for all controls on the panel? Thanks Dennis McGrath
