Can particles follow a curved path? I've tried curve constraint but the emitter is affected not he particles. I am want a stream of particles to move along a curve as they are emitted from the emmitter. Is this possible?

Tom the path wind is really easy to use.

Open the FX_Browser (under tools) and then add a wind, open the properties for the wind and select path wind. Now just keyframe your wind in the way you want it to move and off you go :)
