How do you make curved arrows? I was trying MS Publisher to no avail

I need to make some curved, double headed arrows for use in a presentation.  I had planned on making them in Publisher, then copying and pasting into Power Point.  But, I cannot seem to find simple arrows.  They are either straight or inverted curves.

I don't really care where I get them either.  I would be willing to just use images from the web as long as I could do some manipulation, like inverting or resizing them.

Any sugestions?

Thank,  Bob

Have you gone through the available arrows in PowerPoint?

Under View/Toolbars make sure your Drawing toolbar is checked. Click the small down arrow to the right of "AutoShapes", and select Block Arrows.

Pardon if you've already done this. I'm simply not assuming.

If you want your arrows to be double-headed, you may be able to fit two curved arrows together, then group them.

Use the Curve tool as explained here: http://visiscience.com/blog/15
PPT and Microsoft Word have "WordArt" options. For both, go to View / Toolbars / Select WordArt.

There are curved, round, and straight arrows in the "block arrows" category.
