Why not call CreateChildControls again from your button? Add the following code to the end of your button code. this.Controls.Clear(); CreateChildControls();

Mattias, are there any implications regarding ViewState loading when going for that approach ? I would just create a method for settings the controls enabled state (based on the business logic) and call that in both the CreateChildControls and OnClick. That way you're not double running every line of code in the CreateChildControls.

Thank you for the post. Is there a way to invert Click Event Handling with Connection Consuming? Or to force the Connection Consuming in Page Load?

Hi, AFAIK you cannot change the order of the lifecycle events. It agree that it would make life a lot easier but your best option would be to store the data in a temporary cache. Regards, Steven

Hi Steven, I have tried all I know but with no chance. I have a set of controls in a MOSS 2007 web part. I have some controls which are updated with enable/disable from the database values. The database values are saved by me clicking on a button from the webpart. Because Click Event Handling is after CreateChildControls I have no idea on how to make the controls enabled or disabled. Please help if you can. Thanks in advance, Teddy
