I set all the controls on the form to disable.
but some have grey background, some still white background.
i check the price & amount in the subform have the same properties.
how to set them to all grey whenever disable?

Double check that you can't enter or edit in the white controls because they should be gray if disabled. You could lock and colour the background to whatever you want instead (if you don't like the gray). However, users would be able to enter the control but would not be able to edit.
