VB6 to VB2005 question about Frame controlI have a Windows form with several Frame controls containing
Textboxes, Comboboxes, Buttons, etc. The Enabled property on the Frames are set to False and the user can't edit any of the Textboxes until they click a button. When I try this in VB2005 and set the Enabled property to False, everything in the Frame turns gray and is hard to read (relatively speaking). Is there any way to duplicate the functionality of the VB6 Frames? Kevin,
What do you mean with a frame, I know frames in web pages, but in VBNet there are no frames. Please be correct in the description of your questions, we see less than, so using own invented of in past used words means only that other people cannot help quick.

I'm using a frame control in VB6. I put all the controls on the form inside the frame control. The frame's border property is set to None so it's invisible on the form--the user doesn't know it's there. When the Enabled property of the frame is set to False, all of the controls inside appear like they would if they were directly on the form, but the user is not able to access any of them. When I set the frame's Enabled property to True, then the user can type in the textboxes, etc. I'm trying to use a panel control in VB2005. When I set the panel's Enabled property to False, all of the controls inside it appear grayed out. Is there some other control that I can use that will allow me to lock other controls without changing their looks?

You can use for that two (one goes as well but this is easier to describe). On one you put all the controls on the others you put nothing You set the dock property of both in the form load event to Full Than you can hide (visible = false or true) everytime one of those. (If you use one you set the controls on the surface of the window and use the panel to hide them by showing a blank pannel, I would use two because that makes the way you do it in my idea more clear) I hope this helps, Cor Show quoteHide quote "Kevin" <kevin@nospam.com> schreef in bericht news:rl2192hl0ibqp6545u7ugus4lcve6sfsai@4ax.com... > Sorry I didn't make myself clear. > > I'm using a frame control in VB6.
