Try having mouseDown and mouseUp handlers in the card script. In the 
mouseDown, if the mouse is within the rect of one of the starting radio 
buttons, store that button's name or ID. In mouseUp, check again and if 
the mouse is within the rect of one of the ending radio buttons, create 
a new graphic. Set it's style to line and it's points to the locs of 
both buttons (one per line).

You may need to do some more settings on the line, but that should be 
enough to get you started.

Cheers,
Sarah
