Problem : "false" is not a valid boolean value(it is a string)

so you should change either string "false" to false or convert string "false" to boolean.

You can directly assign the false to the Enabled property without double quotes as below:

btnSearch.Enabled = false;

OR

You can convert the string false to boolean value using Convert.ToBoolean() method and then assign

Try This:

btnSearch.Enabled=Convert.ToBoolean("false");

You are providing string instead of boolean value. Just remove the double quotes:

btnSearch.Enabled = false;
