Why can I not access another script on the same gameObject?

Unity Engine
1

Ok I have two scripts on the main player gameObject. One I am going to use for teleporting (FollowPath script) and the other is for locomotion (Controller script). So when I teleport I dont want the Controller script to be active. So I want to have the FollowPath script dissable the Controller script. I have tried 100 variations of the following:

		Component myComponent = GetComponent("Controller");
		myComponent.active = false;

But I keep getting this error:
`UnityEngine.Component.active’ is obsolete

if I try

myComponent.enabled = false

I get UnityEngine.Component' does not contain a definition for enabled’

I dont want to turn off the whole thing, just the script.
