Hello ,
If you are using database , then simply store one bool status to check whether button was clicked or not .Suppose ,the button was clicked and you store 'True' in database table. Now , in pageload just check whether the value was 'True' or 'False' . If it is 'True' then disable it otherwise it should be enabled .

To disabled a button from server side
btn.Enabled = false;
Thanks

Hello Animesh,

Thanks a ton for your reply.
That is really helpful but just one issue here when i click on generate email button the bool value will get saved to the same tablee and the table has also got a primary key that is TransactionID so i would need to add the TransactionID with that bool value aswell because primary key cannot be null.
But the page has got another button which is save details and after generating email and filling out rest of the information the user will save the details.. so how can i do that.. as another record with same details will be added also i do not want to keep updating the same record after every button click that means my transactionID will keep on updating itself. I want the transactio nID to be saved inly once.
Also please note that transactionID is being generated at button click i have generated a uniqueNumber in save details which is being added in the database.. and to add generate email records in the database i would need to generate the transactionID there aswell.

I hope i have explained correctly..if you find any query please let me know. I will try and clear it.

Thanks

You may consider following approach-
1. Create a table in the database to store the information of whether the email is being already sent or not. Or you can just insert a row with unique info from the context.
2. At page load, hit database to see if the email is sent or not and accordingly disable or enable the button.

Work on this logic and if you face any problem please let me know so that I'll try to guide you further.

Hope, it helps :)
