i have a form with a tab canvas (2 pages) . giving the details of the employee.

in the first tab, i have a list box listing the marital status. in the other tab, i have 2 push buttons one for spouse information and other for children.

now ,when i select single , i want to disable these 2 buttons.
i tried using set_item_property.. but its not working...

Try to put that code also on When-Tab-Page-Changed trigger.

HI
you have nothing to do you should place your code in when validate item

if status='single' then

set_item_property('itemname',enabled,property_false);

elsif status='married' then

set_item_property('itemname',enabled,property_true);

else
message('Marital Status Is Necessary');
end if;

i have tried it in my employee table i hope it will work for you too.

regards

Muhammad Shahid Mughal
