A recent discussion thread discussed how to find the name of a cast member attached to a sprite. That's pretty straightforward and answered well by several list members.

Here's a challenge that has puzzled me for a long time. I usually take a coding shortcut because of time, but is there a way to find the sprite if the member number or name is known?

(x = the spriteNum of member "junk")

At first glance, this expression seems it would work. Even a rudimentary understanding of the concept of object properties shows this is a ludicrous expression. A cast member can't possibly have this property. However, it seems that there should be way to identify which sprite is using a known cast member.
