Disable Select On A ListView?

I would like to disable the ListView's Select command based upon other data in the row. For example, if the UserStatus is "T", I'd like to gray out the Select hyperlink and prevent selection of that row.

I've accomplished the same thing in a GridView by the following statement in the RowCreated event. However, I haven't been able to rework that code for a ListView.

CType(e.Row.Controls(0), WebControl).Attributes("disabled") = "true"
<asp:listview runat="server" id="ListView">
<itemtemplate>
<tr id="rowUsers" runat="server">
<td><asp:linkbutton id="btnEdit" runat="server" text="Select" onclick="btnEdit_Click" /></td>
<td><asp:label id="UserNameLabel" runat="server" text='<%# Bind("UserName") %>' /></td>
<td><asp:label id="UserStatusLabel" runat="server" text='<%# Bind("UserStatus") %>' /></td>
</tr>
</itemtemplate>

Generated output...

<tr id="ListView_rowUsers_0">
<td><a id="ListView_btnEdit_0" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ListView$ctrl0$btnEdit','')">Select</a></td>
<td><span id="ListView_UserNameLabel_0">Adams,John P</span></td>
<td><span id="ListView_UserStatusLabel_0">T</span></td>
</tr>
