Richard,

Like others, I'm not sure what you're looking for.

If you want to run a script after the user clicks outside a field, use the 
closeField and exitField messages. You could also add a graphic to the group, 
behind all the controls of the group, and add a mouseUp handler to this graphic.

As mike wrote, you can disable all controls while the group is visible. That 
would make your interface less confusing for the user.
