what you are looking for is:

the hilite of me ;-)

but you can have your script much shorter and save hours of typing:

on mouseUp
    set the invisible of field ID "1068" to the hilite of me
    set the invisible of field ID "1069" to the hilite of me
    set the invisible of field ID "1070" to the hilite of me
end mouseup

That's all... Cool, isn't it ;-)

Have fun...
