I'm trying to model out a company that has about seven line items (not including dep & amort) on the cash flow - adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash. How do I go about setting the model up? Do I use all the line items or lump all of line items into a single line item? What is the best way to project the line items or line item?

Depends on the item - most you should be able to pull from how you forecast on the income statement. Others you will have to make assumptions - maybe it is a % of sales, stays constant, goes to 0 - depends. For example, change in working capital you can make some assumptions on A/R, Inventory, A/P, etc. days/turns to calculate.
So the line items in questions excludes working capital items. The line items in questions are things such as FX gain/loss, tax benefits, deferred comp.
