Actionscript Mouse control on ONE movieclip only?

In Flash/ActionScript2, is it possible to capture the mousemove, buttonup and down event but only within one MovieClip?

At present, i can capture mousemove etc. via a listener, but only for the entire stage... I need to draw a rectangle for selecten, and then press a save button. The problem is i save the coordinates on mousedown and up, but when I press on the save button, it saves the coordinates of when you pressed on the save button...

I've tried mc.onXY, but that either listened not at all or to the entire stage...

Edit: Code as requested mc.onMouseDown should be mcImageToCrop.onMouseDown I did change it back to mc when mcImageToCrop didn't work...

    import flash.geom.Rectangle;


// Create a container by calling the setUpContainer functie wich will return a movieclip with a needed propeties set.
var container:MovieClip = setUpContainer();

// Create rectangle named window to create our gradient in it.
var window:Rectangle = new Rectangle(400, 230, 265, 240);

// Set our created window rectangle as a scrollRect property to the container movieclip.
// Rectangle constructor params are x, y, width, height
//container.scrollRect = window;

Here's one way that might work for you: instead of using a listener, you can define onPress and onRelease events for your movieClip, like this:

import flash.geom.Point;// you'll need this if you want to store your coordinates as Point objects

var startPoint:Point = new Point();
var endPoint:Point = new Point(); 

myClip.onPress= function() {
    startPoint.x=this._xmouse; //gives x-coord relative to myClip...
    startPoint.y=this._ymouse; // ...for coords relative to stage, omit "this."
    trace("start: "+startPoint.toString());
}

myClip.onRelease= function() {
    endPoint.x=this._xmouse;
    endPoint.y=this._ymouse;
    trace("end: "+endPoint.toString());
}

myButton.onRelease= function() {
    trace("saved coordinates: "+startPoint.toString()+endPoint.toString());
}

Note the difference between

• onMouseUp = function() {} Invoked when the mouse button is pressed. (anywhere)
• onPress = function() {} Invoked when the user clicks the mouse while the pointer is over a movie clip.
