Message Description:Op posts questions on btn enabling/disabling. It is pretty simple a problem but possibly it is not all the poster wants.
setEnabled(T/F) is the correct and only answer for btn enabling. The author has to make further clarification on his problem. Maybea code is necessary.Message type:likely a problem-oriented one; according to OP's description in both OP and a3, he must have his own circumstance with using btns.
Q&A process:
q1-a1-a2-a3(poster denies solution a1 &a2 )-a4-a5-a6-a7-a8-a9(another ask after OP became a zombie one)-a10What is the situation of the Q/A?OP is a very simple question but the author did not clarify his specific problem. Further clarification is necessary
What should be the most objective way of Q/A?OP should include specific requirement of his program. Maybe himself cannot find out problem essence. Code will be much helpful.

The problem seems to be passing references from one frame to another so that its button can be controlled in the latter. The original poster has no idea about this. Thus must be a beginner Java programmer.
The second last poster claims having a similar question, which is in fact totally different: He needs to change the widget tree dynamically while the original discussion simply enabling and disabling a button. Totally different topic!
I agree. Some programmers post on existing threads instead of opening their own. Sometimes two or three questions are posted in a single thread. If some hot discussion are not closed, people can still add their similar questions in so as to gather more attraction. Else if the discussion has been over for a long time, posting in it seems unwise choice.
