Undo not available question

[Guest]

Good Morning All,

I am using the Undo command as a cancel button on a form. Is there a way
to disable the command button, if the undo is currently not available?

Thanks,
Renee

I expect you could set the button's Enabled property to False in the
form's Current event, and then set it to True on the form's Dirty event.

Try enabling the button in the form's Dirty event. In the code in the
button's click event, you can disable the button again after you do the
Undo, but since you click the button it will have the focus and you can't
disable an item that has the focus. The trick is to move the focus to
another control first, then disable the button.
