Use

The LostFocus event occurs when an object loses focus.

This property is useful if you wish to perform verification and validation as the user is leaving a control. Another use for this event procedure is enabling, disabling, hiding, and displaying other objects, in conjunction with an OnGotFocus macro. You can reverse or change conditions that you set up in the object’s OnGotFocus macro.

DATAGRID CONTROL:

In relation to the DataGrid control, the LostFocus event is triggered when the DataGrid object loses the focus. Use the EndEdit event to specify actions to run when the focus is removed from individual cells within the DataGrid.

BE AWARE THAT:

This property is not supported for most controls in Newlook Server and may lead to unintended behavior. Where possible, it is recommended that you avoid assigning logic to this property if your solution will be deployed to a Server environment.
