the best you are going to have is LostFocus and GotFocus events. You can also get as granular as mouse, keyboard, and/stylus lost/got focus events. Also, you can check out the PreviewTextInput event

here are the MSDN docs:

LostFocus
GoFocus

Please have a look at this link and see if it helps.

TextBox.TextChanged & ICommandSource

The basics here are through binding yes. 1 way is to bind to an objects property which implements INotifyPropertyChanged. You are actually responding to the property changing rather than the text box.

Look into two way binding. That's really where you will see the benefit of this. – Matt Jan 23 '12 at 18:40
