    if you're familiar with Freehand or Illustrator- it's called 'align to path'
    this is where you can create a spline curve and have text follow its path... very handy

    is this possible in AutoCAD2002, 2000?

    is it possible to repeat an entity along a polyline's path?

    TIA!

    If it's made into a block, then you can DIVIDE/MEASURE and then explode
    & edit... I do this on splines all the time...

    I think what "busto" is asking for though is more like ArcText (but with
    a spline), whereas you modify the spline and the text stays aligned to
    it.
