For example, you might disable a control used purely for display purposes, such as a text box that provides read-only information. ■ If Enabled is set to False (0): • The control and any of its children are grayed and removed from the tab order • Child controls cannot receive or respond to events. Note: The only controls that can have children are forms, frames, and picture boxes. See: ◄Parent and Child Relationships► ◄Tab Order Definition► ■ Disabling a timer control by setting Enabled to False (0) suspends the countdown set up by the control's Interval property. Enabling the timer (setting Enabled to True (-1)) starts the countdown from the value of the object's Interval property, not the value at the point at which it was suspended.
