I'm sure this is easier than I think, but I seem to be having some trouble.
I have a relatively simple program in mind. Imagine an image with multiple
hot spots that have been labeled with letters. I desire to make a program with
an image pointer that randomly selects a word or phrase from a

What have you tried so far and where did you get stuck?
Do you mean that the pointer image is supposed to more around? How?
What do you mean by random? Is there any user interaction involved?

First of all, this is really a cool stack. Congratulations.
The cursor ID was still causing an error. Why don't you include that

Every "object" (or more correctly, "control") in Revolution has a location
(or "loc") which is the x, y coordinate where that object is located. You
can easily get and set the location of objects.
Here's one way you could build your program using locations:
1. Put in your backdrop image.

Nice work, very promising !
For some reason the text window resizes itself to obscure the button
