I have a dialog box with a bunch of edit windows (single-line).  
When the user enters info into the first edit box and then tabs to
the next edit box I want to know that something is in that first
edit box and use it to load in some other info.

Right now, I have the user press return and I can determine if they
have only entered info into the first box.  But I want it to be so
they just hit tab or click somewhere else.

How do I have the edit window alert my Dialog Box window function
when it has gained or lost the input focus?  I know there exist messages
that have this info in one of the Params but I can't figure out how to
access the edit control message from the dialog box function.  

Thanx for any help!!!
