This appeared as I was trying to use a mouseEvent to move an object. I placed the variables for mouseX and mouseY in the public class. I did the same for direction X and Y but there was no error message for those.

If the class you are adding the mouseX
to is extending the DisplayObject
type (and if it's any kind of Flex component than it does), you already have a variable with that name from that type. As a fix name your variable something else eg. myMouseX
. If you don't know what exactly I'm taking about with extending classes, check the tutorial on Object-oriented programming in ActionScript.
