Hi Steve,

I haven't checked yet what others said about this problem, but one for sure: don't use public variable. Use form property instead. In our base class form we have property EditMode.

The simplest idea: EditMode_Assign
thisform.SetAll('enabled',mNewValue) && Check help on SetAll, I write off the top on my head.
