I have 3 editable fields (for the user to answer questions) at various markers in my Director file. When I go to the next marker the cursor is sitting in the field that I last entered text at the last marker. How can I make the cursor always be in the top text field ready for the first answer?

Thanks for your help.

at each marker change the focus ...

set the keyboardFocusSprite = textSpriteNum

You can force focus to a text or field sprite in a number of ways. You
can set the editable of sprite property, the keyboardFocusSprite system
property or the autoTab property of the member.

If when you move to this new frame, all of the sprite instances are new
and not carried across the score from the previous frame, then you can
set the keyboardFocusSprite property to the sprite that you want to
have focus in a frame script, or from the function that moves the
playback head, just put that line after the go to ... line.

You can also turn off the editable of sprite property for each of the
sprites and then turn it on for just the first one. You can restore the
property as the user finishes with each editable sprite.
