Hi Liam, thanks for your reply.
Your suggestion would work but I need a visual identification that the control is disabled, but my problem was that the caption is also disabled, which looks a bit weird on the form... disabling Foreground colour has been suggested and I'll play around with it.

Regards,

Gerard
