>>I have a form that has nine options (buttons) on it. I use this form in two different places. all of the buttons apply in one place but only nine apply in the other. I have seena command that lets you enable or diable a button through code. The default for the button is Enable=.F. I am not sure how to use the "Object.Enable" command. Any idea how to do this?
