Slava... there is no "controlType"   using Claudi suggestion: by making 
a command/function

put this in your object's script

on mousewithin
    switchControls(the abbrev name of me)
end mousewithin

Then in your group, card or stack script put:

command  switchControls pObjectName

     put word 1 of pObjectName into tControlType

     switch tControlType
        case "button"
           set the cursor to hand
            break
        case "field"
           answer "this is a field" with "OK"
           set the cursor to iBeam
      break
     end switch

end switchControls

Tried to put these script handlers in to button and use the button ID as 
a behavior in other objects, but it doesn't work.
dunnu why..
