Getting a field name

[Jim Hurley]

Here's my problem. A button handler in a palette stack reads:

on mouseup
  answer "Click on the application field." with OK
  if it is empty then exit mouseUP
  wait until the mouseclick
  answer the clickstack --But I want the field name, not the stack name
end mouseup
What the user is suppose to do is click on the field in the 
application stack and the name of the field is revealed. The above 
handler produces the stack name, not the field name.

Naturally I tried "the clickField" but that comes up empty. 
(clickField is set to empty after a mouseclick.)  And "the target" 
gives the name of the button which originally received the message in 
the palette stack, not the field in the application stack.

How do I get the name of the clicked  field in the application  stack 
revealed to the palette stack?
