Elvin,

Easiest way is to divide the distance by the time to find the
distance to move the sprite each exitFrame. Keep the next location
for the sprite in a variable. (The sprite will only "move" a fraction
of a pixel each time.)
Use the frameTempo to compensate for different frame rate settings.
Here's a behavior to play with:
----------------------------------------
property distSlice
property nextLocH
property destLocH
on beginSprite me
theDistance = 50
theTime = 6.0 -- Must be a float!
timeSlice = theTime * the frameTempo -- Nr of times to move
distSlice = theDistance/ timeSlice -- Amount to move each time
nextLocH = sprite(me.spriteNum).locH -- Start pos of sprite
destLocH = sprite(me.spriteNum).locH + theDistance -- End pos
end
on exitFrame me
if destLocH <> sprite(me.spriteNum).locH then -- Check if done
nextLocH = nextLocH + distSlice -- Compute next location
sprite(me.spriteNum).locH = nextLocH.integer -- Move sprite
end if
end
----------------------------------------
