	There are a few different ways. First, you need a handle to the button. You can easily accomplish this in the CommandBars_Execute method. Just take a look at the samples. You could also accomplish this in the CommandBars_ControlSelected method. This method would work well if you want to change the enabled property based on that control or another control being pressed. If you want to change the property based on other conditions, unrelated to the commandBars, try using the CommandBars.FindControl method to get a pointer to your control. Once you have it, just change the enabled property. Also, take a look at the CommandBars_Update method of the Office2003 sample. This gives you the syntax for accomplishing the task. Take a look at the CommandBars_InitCommandsPopUp method of the DynamicPopups sample for an example of using the .FindControl method. Good luck
