Hi Smriti,

When you create a Button you must to assign a action to this button. Enabling or disabling this action will disabe the button. you can do this by code:

You have a action called Cancel

wdThis.wdGetCancelAction().setEnabled(true/false);

Either you can disable the action itself (which will disable all UI elements using this action automatically) or bind the "enabled" property of the UI element to a boolean context attribute and set the attribute value to "false".

Hi Armin,

Thanks for your reply. How can we disable the action itself? Can you please provide the code snippet?
