ToolStripTextBox and LostFocus

Hi,

I'd like to use a ToolStripTextBox in a MenuStrip for a test application

I'd like to catch the event indicating that the user has entered its text in
the textbox. Therefore, I'd like to catch the 'LostFocus' event. This event
is not proposed in the visual studio by default.

Here's my question(s) :
. Is there another event that I should catch (After some tests, the Leave
event is not fired at all and the TextChanged is a bit too frequent) ?

. Is it possible to make appear the LostFocus in Visual Studio ?

In addition _ and more generally _ , I have some hesitations about the use
of the ToolStripTextBox in my application menus. I think that this function
is not intuitive for end-users and therefore is to handle with care. Are
there some examples in standard application (office,...) of the use of
ToolStripTextBoxes?

All the best,

Yves

(I'm using CS 2005 express).

Use the Leave event.

Unfortunately, I fought the use of ToolStripTextBox in mesus in the
Visual Studio menu editor.
