Enable & disable cronjob

Hi All,

I am new to cronjob and need some guidance on this.

1) How do i enable a cronjob ?
Can it be done by "crontab mycronfile" or "crontab -e mycronfile"

2) How can i disable the cronjob?
Can deleting of the "mycronfile" disable the cron or do i need to perform "crontab -r mycronfile" ?
