You can use this code:

var field1 = this.getField("Text1");
if (color.equal(field1.fillColor, color.green)==true) field1.fillColor = color.red;
else field1.fillColor = color.green;

You didn't specify what should happen if the button is clicked is the field is red, though...

Exactly what I needed thanks. Can you tell me also how to change colors to RGB?

Sure. Instead of color.green or color.red you can use this:

["RGB", 0, 1, 0]

["RGB", 1, 0, 0]

Note that the values are from 0 to 1, not 0 to 255 like in other places.
