Is there a C# method similar to Javascripts OnBlur?

Question

I am creating a windows form in C#,

I have phone and email fields that I want to validate when the user leaves the fields, when I double click the textbox in visual studio, it writes a textchanged event, I don't want to call the validate method until the user is done entering the full entry.

Is there a way to do this similar to OnBlur in Javascript?

So Ihave tried MouseLeave,Off Focus, and they all act like TextChanged,

I dont want to raise my validation event until the user is done typing, not after every keystroke.

Does anybody know how to do this,

This is for a desktop app, not an asp.net project.

Answer 1

OnLostFocus, maybe?

Answer 2

There's an OnLostFocus event for controls. You should be able to use that.

Answer 3

The Validating event was designed to do this. Set e.Cancel = true if you're not happy with the input. The ErrorProvider component is ideal to provide visual feedback.

Answer 4

try the "Leave" event.
