Events when modifying TextBox

[Guest]

I notice that if you use the TextChanged event on a TextBox it will fire for
every single change, like appending a single character- even if the user
continues to type. I was wondering if there was another event that fires
only when the text is changed and the user has left foucs?

I tried using the Leave event for focus but I'd have to check to see if the
value was changed and also I notice that if the user makes a change then hits
the "X" to close the window, the Leave event never fires
