For the controls on the form

Thisform.setall("Enabled", .f.)
* or
FOR EACH loControl IN Thisform.Controls
  IF PEMSTATUS(loControl ,"Enabled",5) && Does the enabled property exist?
     loControl.Enabled = .F.
  ENDIF
ENDFOR

You'll have to add more complicated logic to drill further down if there are containers on the form.
