hi,
 i avoided answering this as i"ve no-longer got Flash4 and can't
remember if this works in 4.  But until someone says different, you try
this..
- create the guide and object that is been guided.
- make these into a movie clip.
- use this movie clip as a mask.

 I've got a feeling that you may not be able to mask with a movie clip
in Flash 4, but I maybe wrong ... !!
