Database & Application Miscellaneous: Zippscript or similar

The last day Matt gave a great solution for my problem "How to start a script as soon as I change a field". Zippscript is working really good.
But now I would like to go forward and I would like that a script is started when I change the record. For example, if I have three records containing in the field "X", "A", "B", and "C", respectively, I would like that when I go, using the finder or I move with the navigator, to the record containing "A" in the field "X", automatically the script "X" is started and if I move to other record, just because I change the record containing, for example, "B" in the field "X", the script "X" is again started.
If this is impossible I would need at least that some script automatically is started when I change the record. Is this possible.
Thanks,
Jokin

1. Keep the Status Area hidden, using layout buttons and scripting to move f
rom one record to another (e.g., Go To Record [Next/Previous]), and you
can and build anything you want into the script.

2. If you are married to the Status Area (or don't want to do layout buttons
), create a global calc field to equal Get ( RecordNumber ) and the zippScr
ipt function. Regardless how you get to that record, the value will change a
nd the script will be execu
ted.
