PPT2K3 has fixed what I have always been frustrated with... how to add Arrow
tips to the lines of a cycle diagram...

But in 2k2 its not exactly obvious... I still can't seem to get that to work
right and fake it... Anyone know how to do this in PPTXP?

No easy way i know of.
A possible workaround is after you are finsih with the cycle diag, right
click and select cut.
Click Edit > Paste Special > Picture (Enhanced Metafile).
Ungroup the cycle diagram twice.
Now, select individual autoshape (the 'tipless' arrow) and ungroup again.
You can then right click and select Edit Points.
Add a new point and fake a tip from there.

See if others have a better solution for that.

Awsome... I knew there was a way to do it, its just ridiculously difficult
imho. I am SO happy they made it a lot easier in 2K3.

Thanks for the info both tohlz and Steve!
