The Timer object would work for this requirement. You would put code in
the timer's Action event which checks the status of your interface
elements and enables your OK button or not depending on the results.
Set the timer mode to 2(the default) and
run some trials starting with a period of 10, perhaps, and adjust to
get the response that you want.

Hi, all!
I have designed a very long form in a dialog box for a membership
database I'm developing. It consists of editfields for first name,
middle name, last name, street address, city, state, ZIP (postal)
code; various roles in the organization and various means of contact;
popup menus for age group and affiliation type.*
The OK button should be disabled when all of the editfields are
empty, all of the checkboxes are unchecked, and all of the popup menus
are UNKNOWN; that is, when the form is blank, in layman's terms.
That's easy when the form first appears: nothing is filled in, so the
OK button begins disabled.
But a problem arises when the form is filled in because a field could
be filled in and then cleared a short time later. The OK button ought
to be disabled or enabled accordingly. In short, I'm trying to do this
[in pseudocode]
