How to Gray out the CheckBox?

Hello,
In my program it starts off with the checkbox being check thought the Object
inspector. When the user clicks on another checkbox, the first checkbox
should be grayed out and not be able to be checked agian. This is what I've
done but it only it grayed out when I reckeck the box which I don't want.

AutoDetectChk->State = cbUnchecked;
AutoDetectChk->AllowGrayed = true;

Thanks
Clinton

Use TCheckBox::Enabled to control whether the control is grayed.

The AllowGrayed setting doesn't allow the control to LOOK grayed, it
allows the Check property to return the value cbGrayed.
