Moving Hero With Mouse

[Hurdarr]

Hello. I want to do a game where you control your main character with the mouse. But I kinda forget the code needed to achieve that.

Isn't something like:

hero.x = MouseX;
hero.y = MouseY;

I tried several variatons but it doesn't work.

I´m using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 3.0 by the way.

You're close. mouseX, mouseY with a lower-case m. If you just use it unqualified, it will be the coordinates relative to the root or whatever DisplayObject that code is in. You can use stage.mouseX, stage.mouseY to use global coordinates.
