Hi Pete,

The bug, or questionable behavior, was not that the closeField message was sent 
when the field is change and then the user clicks in another FIELD. That works 
as expected. The puzzle was when one click on a BUTTON. This did not change the 
focus from the changed field. It would be necessary to insert a "focus on 
nothing" or "select empty" in the button script to trigger the closeField 
message. 

(My personal preference is for "focus on nothing". Less emotional strain on the 
button.)
