Default How do I create cycle diagram with text on the arrows?


I know that you can create a diagram in powerpoint with the text in between
the cycle lines but I am trying to do 2 things different. First I would like
to have arrows instead of the lines. the template shows the aroows but when
you open up a cycle diagram there are no arrowheads. Secondly, I want to pu
the text inside of the arrow not betweeen. You may respond to me at:

Hi

What version of powerpoint??

In 2003 simply INSERT > DIAGRAM and choose the arrow cycle

In XP you dont get the arrows

If you have XP and know someone with 2003 ( or get a trial) you can cut and
paste from 2003 > XP

A second option is to "build" your own diagram

Use the last symbol in DRAW menu > AUTOSHAPES > BLOCK ARROWS and play with
the yellow and green handles. You can also insert text in the arrows with
this method

This is a newsgroup, and the rules are a bit different. Don't expect replies
by private email; that'd deprive everyone else of the answer (or of the
opportunity to correct mistaken answers).

Also, it's not a good idea to publish your email address here. Spammers
"harvest" email addresses from groups like this. You don't want your email
address on their lists.

You'll find the answer to at least part of the problem here:
