Disabling a text entry field

I have a page with text entry fields. I want to disable / enable fields depending on the value of a variable. Is it possible to enable/disable text entry fields?

Hi Rick!

I have a solution :

Hi, we've found a solution, this is not perfect but it works.

You can put your text entry field on a layer, and hide the layer when you need the texte entry field to disapear.

I hope it can help you!

    Thank you for your suggestion, but unfortunately this technique doesn't work when building a drop-down menu system that's embedded within a scroll panel. The layers are unable to track the location of the object within the scroll panel ... a layer simply shows up on top of whatever the existing content is.
