Visual Basic 6 Buttons

Well I have a question, I have two buttons in the Form; Command1 and Command2. Currently when the appliation starts the user can press both of them as they please.

Well I dont want that. the thing that I want to do; When the app start the user can ONLY Click on the Command1 button and after the user clicks on Command1 button they shouldn't be able to click on Comman1 again but can click on Command2 this time.

Any help will be appreciated.

control it using

buttonname.Enabled = True/False

How about this, I'm a newb but I'll try my best :D

VB Code:

' Code behind Command1 button
Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Command1.Enabled = False
    Command2.Enabled = True
End Sub
 
' Code behind Command2 button
Private Sub Command2_Click()
    Command1.Enabled = True
    Command2.Enabled = False
End Sub

And when your making the layout put the Command2 button enabled property to false. That should do it :)

First, set the .Enabled property of command2 to False.
Then use this code in the click event of Command1

VB Code:

Command1.Enabled = False
Command2.Enabled = True

By the time I reply this your question would probly be answered.

VB Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
 
If not Command1.enabled=False Then 
Command1.enabled=False
Command2.enabled=True
End If
 
End Sub
 
Private Sub Command2_Click()
 
If not Command2.enabled=False Then 
Command2.enabled=False
Command1.enabled=True
End if
 
End Sub

thanks a lot.. you guys are really fast I am happy that I found this board :)

Disable command1 in the properties window on the right. Set enabled to false over there.

Then you should set Command1.Enabled = False at design time:
Click on command1 and select the enabled property in the property bar. Then set it to false.

holly I figured that out by myself I was just gonna edit the post but you guys already posted you guys are realllllyyy fast :)

These might be really easy questions for you but I am really new to VB

You can also do it like this:

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Command1.Enabled = Not (Command1.Enabled)
Command2.Enabled = Not (Command1.Enabled)
End Sub
 
Private Sub Command2_Click()
Command1.Enabled = Not (Command1.Enabled)
Command2.Enabled = Not (Command1.Enabled)
End Sub
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
Command2.Enabled = False
End Sub
