Maybe something like this:

on mouseUp
   put the topLeft of fld "myField" into TL
   put the formattedRect of line 1 to -1 of fld "myField" into theRect
   put the margins of fld "myField" into M
   if number of items of M = 1 then put M,M into M
   subtract item 1 of M from item 1 of theRect
   subtract item 2 of M from item 2 of theRect
   set rect of fld "myField" to theRect
   set topLeft of fld "myField" to TL
end mouseUp
