Making ball follow a line

programming flash
1

Ok, I have a line that is 800 pixels long. The line is a gradual curve, that gets kinda steep at the end. I want this ball to go along the line. How do I make the ball move to the right, and stay on top of the line. All I have now is…

onClipEvent(enterFrame){
this._x +=35;
}

Now I need to add something to make it follow the line. The instance name of the line is… “line” without the quotes of course. Ok, go to work guys.
Thanks

do you have to script this?
just use a tween and the line on a guide layer…

I already have one tween going on here, and I didnt wanna have 2. I read earlier that multiple tweens can slow down the animation. I will try to tween it though and see how it works. Can you explain what a guide layer is though?
Thanks
