Then yes, the code above will work. Just don't forget that you need to call the same thing from active() as well, therefore you should extract it to a separate method. Like this:

void enableFields() { SST_CustIDDetails_ds.object(fieldNum(SST_CustIDDetails, CustName)).enabled(SST_CustIDDetails.Payed_sst); }

Yes the controls are bounded to data source field.

The first question is whether the controls (the checkbox and/or the field) are bound to datasource fields or not.

CODE for enable and disable field.

public void modified()

{

super();

if (SST_CustIDDetails.Payed_sst == true )

{

SST_CustIDDetails_ds.object(fieldNum(SST_CustIDDetails,CustName)).enabled(True);

}

else

{

SST_CustIDDetails_ds.object(fieldNum(SST_CustIDDetails,CustName)).enabled(false);

}

}

are you familiar with the Datasource >> field >> modified() method? You have to write a line of code here. NewField.enabled(Datasource.Field == "your condition");

Search for examples in another standard form. (Eg: SalesTable)
