**TakeFocusLoss, VIRTUAL**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

The **TakeFocusLoss **method determines the appropriate action to take when the EIPManager window loses focus, and calls the TakeCompleted method with the appropriate parameter.

**Implementation:**

TakeEvent and TakeFieldEvent methods conditionally call the TakeFocusLoss method.

**Example:**

**EIPManager.TakeFieldEvent        PROCEDURE**

**I UNSIGNED(1)**

**  CODE**

**  IF FIELD() = SELF.ListControl THEN RETURN Level:Benign .**

**  LOOP I = 1 TO RECORDS(SELF.EQ)+1**

**   ! Optimised to pick up subsequent events from same field**

**    IF ~SELF.EQ.Control &= NULL AND SELF.EQ.Control.Feq = FIELD()**

**      SELF.TakeAction(SELF.EQ.Control.TakeEvent(EVENT()))**

**      RETURN Level:Benign**

**    END**

**    GET(SELF.EQ,I)**

**  END**

**  ! Code to handle an unknown field**
