Hi,

I want to disable ribbon control on particular button click. How to do this?

Thanks in advance.

The MFC’s command updating mechanism is used in the ribbon bar absolutely like in toolbars and menus. So simply add the command updating handler for a button and invoke pCmdUI->Enable( FALSE ) to disable it either in the ribbon bar or menu. Please note that in the RibbonBar sample, all the commands are forcibly made enabled by returning TRUE value in the CMainFrame::OnCmdMsg() virtual method and not invoking parent class methods. If you are using the RibbonBar sample as a start up project, you should fix this issue. The CMainFrame::OnCmdMsg() virtual method typically invokes the main SDI view’s OnCmdMsg() method and the parent class method.
