Make simultaneously or sequentially moveable and editable fields or text sprites in movie.

Question

I am having a bit of a problem with creating field or text sprites that are both editable and moveable. I want a user to be able to enter text into the sprites and move them around on the stage to serve as labels for schematics they are making. I can easily make them moveable or editable, but when trying to do both one property interferes with the other. I have been using various combinations of the properties on the mouseenter, mouseleave, and mousedown handlers. One version of my non-workable efforts are below. Seems I can move a sprite but once editable gets focus can't move it anymore.  Any ideas?
rod
property spritenum
on mouseenter me
  sprite(spritenum).moveablesprite = true
sprite(spritenum).editable = false
end
on mouseleave me
  sprite(spritenum).editable = false
  sprite(spritenum).moveablesprite = false
end 
on mousedown me
  sprite(spritenum).moveablesprite = true
  sprite(spritenum).editable = false
end
on mouseup me
  sprite(spritenum).moveablesprite = false
  sprite(spritenum).editable = true
end

Just set your text properties in the property inspector and attach a drag sprite behavior.
--  Drag sprite
property  sp  -- this sprite
property  pStartLoc  --  sprite location upon mouseDown
property  pMouseStart  -- mouse location upon mouseDown
property  pMoving  -- flag for enterFrame. True/False
on beginSprite me
  sp = sprite(me.spriteNum)
  pMoving = false
end beginSprite
on mouseDown me
  pStartLoc = sp.loc
  pMouseStart = _mouse.mouseLoc
  pMoving = true
end mouseDown
on mouseUp me
  pMoving = false
end
on mouseUpoutside me
  pMoving = false
end
on enterFrame me
  if not pMoving then exit
  deltaMouse = _mouse.mouseLoc - pMouseStart
  sp.loc = pStartLoc + deltaMouse
end enterFrame
