Is this Word 2002? In Word 2003, the Cycle diagram has hideous blue arrow
shapes. You can use the yellow diamonds to reduce the arrow to a line, but
the honking big arrowhead is not changed (and is still a hideous blue).
There seems to be no easy way to swap the AutoShape for a different one,
though I suppose there surely must be a way of some sort.

The default AutoShapes *are* arrows. I'm not sure how you got anything
different.


G'day G'day Suzanne,

There is a set of icons, one of which shows a cycle diagram
(clockwise arrows with text boxes). The other icons show an
organisation chart, pyramid, Venn diagram, target diagram and a radial
diagram. OK, when I click on the cycle diagram I get arc shaped
blocks that a block layer might use to build a well. However, there
are no arrow heads on these arcs as shown in the original icon.
Clicking on the arc shaped blocks allows access to Colours and Lines
but that only changes the shading colours and the thickness of the
outlines. There is a Diagram tool bar and it has a Style option but
that only allows options like 3D.

Sorry nothing seems to give me arrows.

Best wishes and thanks
