okay here's how i know how to do it...

1) you have all your ojects lined up vertically from the center of 3D space.

2) they are all parented to bottom object

3) MODEL/Modify/Deform/By Curve

4) select curve

5) Dance your happy dance

6) you can adjust roll inpop-up window..

hope it works.

1) In any viewport, select the animated object(s) to be copied.
2) Choose Edit > Duplicate/Instantiate > Duplicate Multiple from the Edit panel and specify the number of copies required from the pop-up dialog box. The original object is deselected, and the duplicated objects are selected.
3) Choose Constrain > Curve (Path) from the Constrain panel, then pick the curve or curve object. The PathCns property editor appears.
4) Set the Path Percentage to L(n), where n is the percentage of the path along which you want to spread the duplicate objects. Modify any other path options as necessary.
