Hi, what i wanna do is this.. wanna disable an input box initially. But as soon as user makes selections on two combo-boxes, I want to enable the input box. The reson for this is simple,to fill in the info into i/p box user has to make choices on the combo box!!

Here's what I tried, but the i/p box flickers with this method. I am not happy with this approach. Help me improve it or suggest nething else!! thanks..

The example you posted gives me 5 errors and 18 warnings, so I can't see exactly what you mean, but I guess the flickering is caused by the inputbox being updated all the time.

One solution would be to check the current data and/or state of the input box before updating and only update if something has changed.

ya it might give errors as it is a snippet of code from my entire script(which is huge, and irrelevant to the problem at hand).. I just posted it for ppl get an idea of what I am trying.. Anyways just ignore the script as my idea isn't working..

Please tell me if u have any idea by which I can enable any input box only when combobox selection is made.

Here's just the GUI part of the script. User will have to select the combo boxes "Release No." and "Media type No." to activate the input box "Build ID". What can be done for this?
