Grayed Edit controls issue

Hi,

I have some controls which behave differently in different modes like (add / modify / Inquire)
In add mode the controls should be enabled and in Inquire mode it should be disabled. I have some entry/exit functions on them so i have to make them grayed in Inquire mode.
Edit_Edit1..State=Grayed

But grayed control looks too faded so the visibility is not proper. So i tried to make it Read-Only but we can get into the field so the entry/exit events get fired. So i found out a option in the description of edit control to make it read-only with the cursor not going to the field. But i am not getting this option through programming. Any suggestions are deeply appreciated.

Edit_Edit1..state=Inactive ????

Hi Prolay,

An annoying feature is that the option "with selection in readonly" is default checked for edit controls. I would call it a bug that the control's entry and exit code is executed for disabled controls if this option is checked. So try unchecking it.
