No worries. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't some new technique I was missing. I have used a similar technique to the one Peter described. Thanks for posting the summary though!
Benny, Byron -
Apologies guys. I wasn't being reticent or unwilling to share -
just been away from my desk on a 'more than full time project' -
so my email backed up.
The only reason I didn't share initially to the list was that I
thought it wouldn't be anything new to most members. I can see
that Peter has summarised the solution - but if you'd like a copy
of the project file, just drop me a direct email.
Best,
Mike

Its very simple: animate the arrow head and auto-orient it
along the motion path. Then create a solid and apply the
write on effect to it, link the arrow position to brush position
property via expression.
