How to enable/disable buttons?

[Mark Jones]

This works for checkboxes but not buttons:

Code Select Expand


invoke SendDlgItemMessage,hWnd,IDC_BTN1,WM_ENABLE,1,0


The button style, BN_DISABLED, appears to be a flag and not a sendable dialog message. I must be expecially slow today, thanks for reading. :wink

Use EnableWindow and DisableWindow.

P.S. Am I the only one whos feeld there's no smilie which is just a smile. I'd have like'd to finish off the above sentence with a nice friendly smile but :bg, :toothy & :P are all a bit exaggerated and seem condescending.

Eóin,

:bg :toothy :P are just a bit cheeky, suits the member range in here well. I looked for a decent plain smile but all the ones I could find looked like the guy was faking it and had indigestion.

Thanks Eóin. (Say, how in the heck do you pronounce "Eóin" anyways?) :bg

I made a smile.gif with matching transparency from a wink.gif. Maybe hutch might like it. :)

Mark,

Thanks I will have a look at the smilie.

Eóin appears to be an Gaelic version of Ian, John, Iannos, Juan, Yanny, Jenny, Jennifer which are all derived from the same word root.

Yeah the three vowels running together makes it confusing to pronounce. Basically the "E" is silent, so you pronounce kinda like "O-in", or rather, exactly the same as in "to own something". In fact that "fadá" over the "o" is to indicate the extra emphasis it should have. Two other spelling variations with the same pronouncation are Eoghan and Owen, then second being the more common usage in the uk.

hutch-- Cheeky is the word I was looking, condescending was harsh. For condescending stick this boy-o :clap: at the end of a sarcastic comment.
