[font=Arial]Hi,[/font]

[font=Arial] [/font]

[font=Arial]I have one dynamic text field and when I click on that text field all text in it is selected. [/font]

[font=Arial]After that, I want to deselect that text field but not by clicking on another text field but on some MovieClip.[/font]

[font=Arial] [/font]

[font=Arial]Right now selected text only blinks when I click on some MC and stays selected.[/font]

[font=Arial] [/font]

[font=Arial]So it is matter of getting focus. How can I put focus on specific MC to deselect text field?[/font]

[font=Arial] [/font]

[font=Arial]Thanks in advance[/font]
