how to update a control on lostfocus

I am entering data into a subform & then clicking on a button. I would like the data I entered to be updated when I click on the button, the way it is updated when I move to a new record. Can anyone advise me??

Much thanks!

put the following code in the On Click event, before doing whatever else the button does

If Me.Dirty Then DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70

You can also use this syntax
Me.Dirty = Not Me.Dirty
