What happens if you swap the two calls? E.g. CXTPControlComboBox::OnKillFocus() before OnExecute().
 
Another solution would be this:
 
void RegionNameComboBox::OnKillFocus()
{
    CXTPControlComboBox::OnKillFocus();
    PostMessage(WM_COMMAND, ID_EXECUTE);
}
That should do it.

We have a CXTPControlComboBox on our ribbon that needs to perform an execute when it loses focus.

To do this I tried the following (RegionNameComboBox inherits from CXTPControlComboBox)

void RegionNameComboBox::OnKillFocus()
{
    OnExecute();
    CXTPControlComboBox::OnKillFocus();
}

The message fired by OnExecute is handled in our View class so this would now handle if the user presses enter or clicks off.

Unfortunately this has undesirable effects, as if the user clicks off the combobox edit onto the "Ribbon Home button" (the circle button) then the ribbon home button then gets stuck and locked and no longer works.

I am wondering what is the best way of implementing forcing an execute when losing focus which will not break the ribbon?
