Check the syntax for the mouseup command. The command expects one parameter, mouseButtonNumber. Also, it's put into, not put in.

Try this instead:

on mouseup tBtn
   if tBtn = 1 then
      put "Left button" into fld "whichMouseBtn"
   else if tBrn = 3 then
      put "Right button" into fld "whichMouseBtn"
   end if
end mouseup
