[RESOLVED] SIMPLE: Indicate whether mouse left particular windows form control?

[stephsh]

I'm sure I've done this before but I cant find any online resources on this topic to remind me...

After the user has changed the text of textboxA and moved the mouse off that particular control, I would like my method to be executed. What bool expression determines whether the user's mouse has left the control?

if (!textboxA.Focused && textboxA.Text != String.Empty) // textboxA.Focused isnt working!
{
        ExecuteMethod();
}

Don't think like that. .NET uses an event driven model, so utilize the MouseLeave event. The Control.Focused property has nothing to do with the mouse.

thank you! I used "leave" instead of "mouseleave" which works even better
