+ Code Snippet

if mouseclick()=1
   if mousex()>sprite x(sprite) and mousex()<sprite x(sprite)+sprite width(sprite)
      if mousey()>sprite y(sprite) and mousey()<sprite y(sprite)+sprite height(sprite)
         mouse collision with sprite
      endif
   endif
endif

Alternatively, you can have a sprite placed at mousex(),mousey(), something like a pixel, and check for collision between the mouse sprite and the target sprite.

+ Code Snippet

if sprite collision(CursorSprite,TargetSprite)=1 then ...

Checking sprite collision against 0 will return the number of any sprite.

+ Code Snippet

if sprite collision(CursorSprite,0)=The number of the sprite you clicked on.

well, the commands for finding the sprite co'ords are sprite x() and sprite y(), you can find the width and height with sprite width() and sprite height(), and for the mouse position its mousex() and mousey(), and lastly for the mouse button, its mouseclick().

The DBP help files have detailed usage instructions and examples for these commands.

Hope this helps a little
