Enabling/Disabling Buttons on Continuous Subform
Please see image to help visualize issue.
I have a continous subform (two records displayed in below image), I will sometimes need the "Create/View/Clear" buttons enabled and disabled based on the specific record data. It appears though, that that buttons on a continuous report can't be enabled/disabled based on a record - instead if one record has the "create" button disabled, they all do on the continous form.
Can buttons be enabled/disabled based ona record?

I think Peter met to say use Textbox, since Labels do not support Conditional Formatting. Text boxes support CF. So, with CF ... you can set a condition to Enable/Disable the text box 'button' (see image for example). Using the text box properties, you can sort of make a text box look like a button.
Based on the 'view' you show above, I would suggest using a Single Form View instead of continuous, that way you can Enable/Disable controls in the Form Current Event - based on whatever conditions.

Thanks mx - you're right.
I sometimes use a label to get a coloured 'button' and was confusing the two situations.
Textbox with CF it should be.

No. Not possible on a continuous form.
The next best thing is to use Conditional Formatting (CF).
If you use a label instead of a button then you can use CF on the label and that means you can enable/disable the label on a record by record basis.
