sketch relation remains attached to actual sketch elements

    I have a sketch consisting of a line with an arc at one end (like a "J"). I
    want to add another line that has one end that remains coincident with both
    the first two sketch elements (ie it can move along the entire length of
    the "J". If I add a coincident relation to the line part of the "J" the
    point will remain colinear with the line and if I add it to the arc of the
    "J" it will follow the virtual circle of the arc.
    In SW2004 is there a way to add a relation so that end of the second line
    will
    a. follow the contour of the "J"
    b. not extend past either end of the "J".

    TIA,

    Steven

    Can't you also do the same thing with a composite curve? What are the pros
    & cons of each?
