i have finished my problem with save state. but iwant ot ask different question. i have the logic to check the button have copied or not. if the button have null value copy item is disable viceversa. but the problem is when i right click with the button value is null the paste item is disable but when i right click for the second time the paste item is enable.Here is my code:

if (contextMenuStrip1.SourceControl is Button && btn == null)
{
//MessageBox.Show("test ");
copyToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = true;
pasteToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = false;
}
else if (contextMenuStrip1.SourceControl is Button && btn != null)
{
//MessageBox.Show("test ");
copyToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = true;
pasteToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = true;
}
else if (contextMenuStrip1.SourceControl is Form1 && btn == null)
{
pasteToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = false;
copyToolStripMenuItem.Visible = false;
}
else if (contextMenuStrip1.SourceControl is Form1 && btn != null)
{
MessageBox.Show("test "+btn);
pasteToolStripMenuItem.Enabled = true;
copyToolStripMenuItem.Visible = false;
}
can you give me advice. because when i right clik the context menu for the second time the paste item is enable in fact i did not copy the button. it should be the paste item in context menu still disable before i click copy.
