Help required regarding using an area for moving

wln7844

I'm wondering what kind of formula or how to use an area to move an actor.
If I'm wanting my actor to move from an area between say X is going to between 40 and 45 and Y between 40 and 45. How do I use that area?

set a if rule before allowing movement if x<45 move right if x is greater then 40 move left...one way otherwise u could make it collide with a blocking wall depending on type of game.
