var xMouse = mouse._x;
var yMouse = mouse._y;

Mouse.hide();
_root.onMouseMove = function() {
	cursor._x = _xmouse;
	cursor._y = _ymouse;
	updateAfterEvent();
}
_root.onMouseDown = function() {
	cursor.gotoAndPlay("down");
}
_root.onMouseUp = function() {
	cursor.gotoAndPlay("up");
}

Create 2 textfields give each one an unique instance name, I've used in this example "xmousecords", "ymousecords" and put this code into the root timeline:

onMouseMove = function() {
	xmousecords.text = _xmouse;
	ymousecords.text = _ymouse;
	updateAfterEvent();
}
