Filtering on tab or lost focus

[Joseph Baker]

I have a radgrid that uses gridboundcolumns with filtering.  I need to be able to automatically filter "contains" when the user tabs out of the filter box (or focus is lost to the filter box).  I've searched but can't seem to find a solution.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Here is the grid, just in case it's needed:

        <telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" AllowFilteringByColumn="True" AllowPaging="True"
            AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlDataRamps" GridLines="None">
            <PagerStyle Mode="NextPrevNumericAndAdvanced" ShowPagerText="true" />
            <MasterTableView DataSourceID="SqlDataRamps" PageSize="15">
                <RowIndicatorColumn Visible="False">
                    <HeaderStyle Width="20px"></HeaderStyle>
                </RowIndicatorColumn>
                <ExpandCollapseColumn Visible="False" Resizable="False">
                    <HeaderStyle Width="20px"></HeaderStyle>
                </ExpandCollapseColumn>
                <Columns>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="TRANSFER_POINT_ID" HeaderText="Ramp ID" SortExpression="TRANSFER_POINT_ID"
                        UniqueName="TRANSFER_POINT_ID" Display="False" Resizable="False">
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="NAME" HeaderText="Ramp Name" SortExpression="NAME"

                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="CITY" HeaderText="City" SortExpression="CITY"

                        <ItemStyle Width="100px" />
                    </telerik:GridBoundColumn>
                    <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="STATE" HeaderText="State" SortExpression="STATE"

Hi Joseph,

Set the AutoPostBackOnFilter  property to true for the Grid column. And also set the CurrentFilterFunction to Contains to achieve the desired scenario.
Search on key press/button click

Thanks
Shinu.
