I think I've found a solution that I'll pass on.
UserAA has a bindable Boolean variable that is used to set a property in the component. That property is bound to the enabled property of the container.

The form includes selection criteria and a search button. When the user clicks the search button, I want to enable the component and populate a grid of the results of the search. Taking baby steps, the first thing I want to do is the enabling. Search Results Select office: Select Name Case Office Select case: [ ] x x x Select from date: [ ] y y y Select to date: [ ] z z z Search Btn Details Start End Stuff More Stuff 1 1 1 1 2 2 2 2 The results and details sections (in same component) are disabled until a user selects stuff. Step one is to enable the component when the search button is clicked and all the edit checks are passed. I was thinking of passing a boolean in the component bound to a variable that is defaulted to false and set to true in the search button code, but that didn't work. I couldn't find a property of the component that could be set in the search button click event. TIA, Jerry
