Further, If you want the button greyed out, you want to set its property like: PROPERTY <Component ID> ENABLED 'FALSE' If you want it NOT VISIBLE, then use the command you posted: PROPERTY <Component ID> VISIBLE 'FALSE' ----- Original Message ----- From: "Doug Hamilton" <[email protected]> To: "RBASE-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, August 22, 2011 3:29 PM Subject: [RBASE-L] - RE: Form Property Question : Scott, you also might be missing single quotes: : : PROPERTY <Component ID> VISIBLE 'FALSE' : : Doug : : Scott Sherer wrote: : Hi Everyone, : : : : I'm using a Property command for the first time on a form. I wish to make an office button invisible at certain times. In the form, I added a component ID of 'mbrupdts1' to the office button property. Then I issue the following command: 'property mbrupdts1 visible false'. After that I issue an 'edit using formname' command expecting to see the office button grayed out. There is no obvious difference in the office button. What did I do wrong? : : : : Thanks everyone, : : : : Scott Sherer :
