Agnes,

Thanks. I had already hinted at this solution in my original question. The problem remains: when disabling all controls, and then re-enabling them, ALL controls will be enabled, including controls which were previously NOT disabled. Do you think I should somehow keep track of which controls were already disabled when I disable all?

Mit herzlichen Grüssen,

Hilmar.
