I would recommend checking field values when trying to save the
information, not when exiting field. I find it inconveniant to stop me
exiting a field without filling it in. However I would check for wrong
info when exiting field but not left blank. When you try to save I make
sure all neccesary fields contain values or form will not save & you
will be returned to that field.
I hope I am of help.
