| Syntax | EnableCommand OptionName [, SwitchExpression] |
| Action | [Statement] Enables or disables a form menu option. |
| Scope | Only usable in form methods |
| Notes | This statement enables or disables a menu option on a form. If a menu option is disabled, it appears greyed on the menu. In this state, you cannot select it. Any corresponding accelerator key is also disabled. When a disabled option is enabled, you can use it again as normal.
SwitchExpression is evaluated to either True or False. A value of True enables the option, whereas False disables it. Note that True is equivalent to any non-zero integer and False is equivalent to zero. If you omit SwitchExpression, it defaults to True.
