I'm trying to get a message when a combo box loses the focus.  Something
like this is no problem with the text entry widget becuase it sends a 
message to its owner when its focus changes.  (EN_SETFOCUS or EN_KILLFOCUS I
think)

However as fas as I can tell the Combox box sends no such message.  I've 
looked a bit into the combo box and it seems to an object window that
contains two children, one for the list box and one for text entry box
.  If I try and set the ownership of the text entry box to my client
OS/2 freezes the system.

Does anyone know of a way to tell if the a combo box looses focus?

-thanks, Gary
