Jacque,
You are certainly keeping "programmer hours" - it's late even out here in LA. I had tried the focus trick and, like you, discovered a lot of things "focused on" return the not valid control error (I got it with graphics, backgrounds, etc.) The problem with confining the script to buttons clicked is that it makes no provision for menus clicked. Or does it? Menus are buttons in Rev. I'll check.
And, again, thank you.
Paul Looney

Jacque, 
Thanks for your (very prompt) response. 
Unfortunately it does matter in this situation. setting the flag for
unchanged fields will create unnecessary network traffic. 
We need something that will not send the "closeField" unless the
field
has changed. 

Hm. In a very limited test (like, one try) this seemed to work: 

on closefield 
  put the ticks -- or "setTheFlag" in your script 
end closefield 

on mousedown 
  focus on the target 
end mousedown 

Not exactly stress-tested though. ;) 
 
So I did it a second time and found out you need something like this: 

 on mousedown 
   if the target contains "button" then focus on the target 
 end mousedown  

Because otherwise, clicking on the card gives an error about it not
being a valid control.
