Tamar gave you an answer for VFP

With .NET, the code below disables all the controls on a form.
You could change to code to add the names to the items in your listbox.
I assume by controls you mean controls that address data, as opposed to buttons, labels, etc., so you'd have add some code to limit the list to the controls you want.

Note that Tab Pages have to be dealt with.

foreach (Control c in this.Controls)
      {
        c.Enabled = false;
        foreach (Control d in c.Controls)
          if (d is TabPage)
            foreach (Control ctl in d.Controls)
            {
              if (ctl is Label)
              {
                ctl.Enabled = true;
              }
              else
              {
                ctl.Enabled = false;
              }
            }
          else
          {
            d.Enabled = false;
          }
      }
