Cannot set Flash button properties from sprite behaviour

Question

I'm puzzled...
I'd like to set Flash button properties from behaviors on the
sprite
itself (unselect all buttons with a sendAllSprites, for
example) but
only this sample script works :
on mouseEnter me
sprite(spriteNum).selected = true
end
those ones won't:
on mouseEnter me
me.selected = true
end
on mouseEnter me
selected = true
end
It must but obvious but I can't get it to work...
Thanks.

The selected property is a property of the sprite. You need
to
reference the sprite specifically when you access it.
When you are using
me.selected=true
the 'me' is referring to the current instance of the
behaviour that is
running. It is not referring to the sprite itself. Therefore,
you need
to use
sprite(me.spriteNum).selected=true
so that you correctly reference the sprite.
You can use the syntax
me.property=true
only if the property in question is a property in that
*script*.
