I was wondering is someone could tell me whether there is a way to make text follow a guide in flash. Not for the purpose of tweening. I just want a static textbox to be able to follow a guide so it can curve the text i’ve written into a semi-circle, so it gives the apprearance that the text has been bended.

Any help would be much appreciated.
