VS Tools Window Fields - Enabled property

Posted on by Community Member Microsoft Employee

Hi,

I'm converting some VBA modifications to .Net using the Visual Studio Tools.

In VBA, it's possible to check if a field or a button is enabled by looking at its "Enabled" property.

With VST, I found methods to Disable, Enable, Lock, Unlock, Hide, and Show a field or a button, but how can we check the current states? I can only find the properties isEmpty, isFilled, and Value.

Thank you

RE: VS Tools Window Fields - Enabled property

Thank you Jothikrishnan. I think I will have to do the same Try Catch workaround.This is bizarre that such an essential property is ommitted in VS tools..

RE: VS Tools Window Fields - Enabled property

I posted the same question long ago and found nothing. Then as a workaround what I did was....

I was checking Enabled property to update the same field only when it is enabled, otherwise VBA was throwing an error saying you cant update the field. So, I have moved the code to Try Catch Block, and left the catch block empty and that handed my situation. So you might want to do the same as well if it works for you.
