Generally, you want to read where the mouse is on the screen - mousex() and mousey() will give you these values. You then want to use those as the X and Y of your sprite.

I know it's not just code, but I hope it puts you on the right track. Remember to check out the help files in DB if you think you're stuck too - they're quite handy.

the code to move and load a sprite is this

DO
sync on
load image "pawn.bmp",1
sprite 1,0,0,1
if mouseclick()
sprite 1,mousex(),mousey(),1
endif
sync
LOOP

REM THE WHOLE GAME IS IN THE MAIN LOOP! EVERYTHING!
DO
REM EVERY LOOP OF THIS TURNS THE SYNC ON!( once prior to the main loop is fine )
sync on
REM EVERY LOOP OF THIS TRIES TO RELOAD THE SAME IMAGE! ( once )
load image "pawn.bmp",1
REM EVERY LOOP OF THIS TRIES TO PLACE THE SPRITE AT 0,0 ( once )
sprite 1,0,0,1

if mouseclick()
sprite 1,mousex(),mousey(),1
endif
sync
LOOP

good effort for trying to help but you killed it all by not looking over your small code and rushed it perhaps. the example would be a bad way to approach it, until some commands were moved around and shuffled
