I can't write a test handler right now, but I'm thinking you might be able do 
something like this:

repeat for each item i in the tabstops of the field:
  if the clickH > i and less than item i+1,
  that's your column

The clickline gives you the row.

This is rough but sort of works...

on selectionChanged
    set the itemDel to tab
    put word 2 of the selectedLine into tRow
    put word 2 of the selectedChunk into nChar
    put length(line 1 to tRow-1 of me) into tStart
    put char tStart+2 to nChar of me into tText
    put the number of items in tText into tCol
    put tRow&&tCol
end selectionChanged
