ok, rather simple question in VB.
suppose I have a string which I want to evaluate as a command, for example:
Dim str As String str = "Command1.Enabled = True" , now I want to have what is contained in str to run, and disable Command1

I'm not so sure there is a way to do this. Logically it wouldn't work because str occupies a space in memory. When the program is compiled and run that string goes into memory. At that point it is meaningless because it is source code and not machine code.

I think that is imposible in VB, if you read the theory. Itīs a compiled language, maybe you could do that with VBS, or other scripting languages.

Because str is the vb command u choose the other word replace the str and do not use "" for example: Dim a As String a = Command1.Enabled = True
