It all work just fine, but the customer freaked out because they keep
wanting to access and click the "current state" group of checkboxes.
No matter how I seperate them into groups on different parts of the
app. What they demanded is to leave the functionality of the
checkboxes as is, but to simply gray the boxes on the "current states"
to make them easier to distinguish.

Thanks!

I normally use a Shape control to signify state. They don't expose any
events at all so there's no worrying about people clicking on them. But,
you've already presented your design to the customer so.... you might try
something like this...
