Disable/Enable UIButtons in TableView

I have a table view with three sections. The first section contains custom cells which have 3 UIButtons in each cell. The content is dynamic, so I do not know how many rows or buttons there will be.

I want to create a method that will disable all the UIButtons in this first section, and then another button that will enable them. I am not synthesizing a UIButton since I create them dynamically, so I am unable to reference the particular UIButtons. How can I disable and enable all UIButtons? I know the tags of the UIButtons, if that helps. The tags equal the indexPath.row.

Thank you in advance, Evan

There are multiple ways to do this. One simple option is to set a property indicating whether the buttons should be enabled or disabled and then calling [self.tableView reloadData];. You would then alter the cellForRowAtIndexPath method to set each button's enabled property to the property you stored previously (enabled/disabled).

You can do it by getting subviews of your UITableViewCell as - 

if (indexPath.section == 0) 
{
    UITableViewCell *cellView = [tblView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];

    for (UIView *view in cellView.subviews) 
    {
        if ([view isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]]) 
        {
            UIButton *button = (UIButton*)view;
            [button setUserInteractionEnabled:TRUE];
        }
    }
}
