Dear Charel,

please always cc your mail to the qgis user list, other users can learn 
from this, too.
If you would like to assign an event to a field in the attribute table you 
must use the Action tab of the layer property dialog. There are some 
examples in the user manual (Action Menu section).

Regards,
Zoltan
