do the following:
set sprite proirity sprite number,priority
the priority is an integer
a sprite with high priority is shown before a sprite with a lower one

As a matter of interest for those with DB only, who don't have the "Priority" command, you will find that is the orderin which the sprites are first called that sets the priority, see code.Oldwrinkly
