Are you getting a valid button object? Is the Enabled property returning an
error?

I've found that especially in WordMail that even if a button object is a
valid object that most of its properties and methods aren't valid even in
the button Click event handler. In those cases I have to actually
reinstantiate the button object using FindControl and then I can set
properties such as Picture and Mask and set visibility and enabled.

I created access to the button objects when they are created.
They're not null, but when setting the Enabled property to true, the
buttons remain
grayed out.
