Move object along line

[Anonymous]

Hi,

i want to move one object from one point to another along particular line. For example, if i want to move by 1500mm, i will first put one x-line at that point with perpendicular to center line and then offset 1500mm. Then move the object to that point. Second method i am using is putting one circle with radius of 1500mm and move the object to the intersection point of circle and center line. My query is without doing this offset, if i able to set the angle by selecting two points on that center line, it will be easy for me by putting 1500mm and move the object. i checked if it is possible by enable polar tracking and temporary track point snap. But, i unable to find a solution. Please see the attached screen shot.

Kindly give any idea.
