There must be something simple I'm overlooking.  I have the
following in an object's script:
on mouseUp
                move me to 300, 400 in 10 sec
end mouseUp
on moveStopped
        beep
        set the loc of me to 10, 10
end moveStopped
moveStopped is never sent to the object.  I've tried this with a
group and with a circle graphic.   No beep.  I even put a breakpoint
in the on moveStopped, it never breaks.
Try this:

on mouseUp
    move me to 300, 400 in 10 sec without waiting
end mouseUp
on moveStopped
   beep
   set the loc of me to 10, 10
end moveStopped
or this:

on mouseUp
  move me to 300, 400 in 10 sec
   beep
   set the loc of me to 10, 10
end mouseUp
The moveStopped message is only sent when "without waiting" is used. 
The dictionary entry under moveStopped doesn't make this clear, but 
it's decribed under the "move" entry.

Which to use depends largely on whether you want the script to 
continue while the move is taking place.

Cheers
Dave
