Check if a button is disabled in an external application

Hi All,

Was hoping to get some input on how I might be able to check if a
button is disabled or not in a 3rd party application?

I'm trying to capture the session state of an external program and
that is revealed by whether the buttons are disabled.

Any assistance would be much appreciated, thanks!

Not easily :-(

If the application is written in .net then you may be able to wrap the
assembly and then use reflection to get the state of the button.

If you can not do this then you are limited to windows messages and
any API the application exposes.
