I got things a bit wrong as I wanted the field backGroundColor to change
when
end-users selected a field, so, after going for a walk I changed things
to the far simpler:
on mouseEnter
set the backGroundColor of me to green
end mouseEnter
on mouseLeave
set the backGroundColor of me to red\
end mouseLeave

LC 7.0.3
New stack, two new fields with their lockText set to true.
In both fields their scripts:
on focusIn
set the backgroundColor of me to green
end focusIn
on focusOut
set the backgroundColor of me to red
end focusOut
Pressing the Tab key moves the focus from one to the other and the
backgroundColor changes from green to red and vice versa.
If I change the lockText to false in both fields, then change the script to:
on openField
set the backgroundColor of me to green
end openField
on ExitField
set the backgroundColor of me to red
end ExitField
Again the backgroundColor changes from red to green and vice versa when I
tab.
So you are right. There is no difference.
PS If you need the same to happen when data in the field is changed then
you'd also have to include an CloseField handler.

from the dictionary... 'If the control is an unlocked field ..... the
openField message is sent to it instead of the focusIn message.'
Is your field unlocked ?...:-)
Cannot see any difference really.

Subject: focusIn
I tried this:
on focusIn
set the backGroundColor of fld "CHAMP" to green
end focusIn
and it didn't work.
I wanted to change a field's backGroundColor when someone selects that
field;
obviously THAT method doesn't work.
