can use system events perform mouse click :

code:

tell application "system events"  	tell process "(name-of-your-application)"  		click @ {800, 500} -- (coordinates top left of screen)  	end tell  end tell

to find exact name of app (process) can run — , copy results window :

code:

tell application "system events"  	get every process  end tell

to find exact location of point need click — go command-shift-4 , draw box top left corner of screen. when cursor on point need, take note of coordinates listed there. (note: places screen grab on desktop — you'll want delete).

hope that's you're looking for.
