Thanks for all the "unhilite" suggestions. Since initial implementation is desktop, I wound up using this:
on preOpenCard set traversalOn of fld "arg" to false end preOpenCard on openCard send "enableTheField" to me in 250 millisecs end openCard command enableTheField lock screen set traversalOn of fld "arg" to true set hilitedLines of fld "arg" to 0 unlock screen end enableTheField on resumeStack set traversalOn of fld "arg" to false send "enableTheField" to me in 250 millisecs end resumeStack Seems to work so far.
