This is incredibly vague. Please try to ask specific questions if you'd like a decent answer.

What do you mean by target? Do you want to make something like a lock-on feature as in fighter jet games?

Since this is a really vague question my options of helping you are limited. But you could use ScreenPointToRay to cast a ray from the Input.mousePosition and attach the enemy as a target:

 //Attatch to camera
 var target : GameObject; //The target you want to attack
 
 function Update (){
     var hit : RaycastHit;
     if(Input.GetButtonDown("Fire1")){
         var ray : Ray = gameObject.camera.ScreenPointToRay(Input.mousePosition);
         if(Physics.Raycast(ray, hit)){
             if(hit.collider.tag == "Enemy"){
                 target = hit.collider.gameObject;
             }
         }
     }
     //Continue logic
 }

Basic example. Hope it gets you going.
