A LostFocus event procedure is most commonly used for verification and validation updates. For example, when a user leaves a control, you may want to hide it or change it's color to indicate that it has lost focus. You can display, enable, or hide other objects as a result of the LostFocus event as well. A LostFocus event can also be used to undo certain things set in the GotFocus event.
