The way I do it is as follows:
Select the open rectangle Tool with the line set to none and draw
a small shape directly onto the stage and set its ink to transparent.
Place this shape off stage and then name the corresponding cast
member (ex: Pointer).
The following can be a frame script or a movie script, depends on your
requirements. Let us assume you want to make it a frame script:
on enterFrame
sprite(?).loc = point (the mouseH, the mouseV) ---(?) stands for
---the number of the channel where your Pointer is in the score.
sprite(?).member = "the name of your image"
end
When you have finished you can simply swap the cast members
and place the sprite back off stage.
