I'm trying to create text that has an arrow attached to it, but I'm not sure how to do that.  I thought I could start by creating a point and adding a label to it, but I can't even create a point!  I tried using the basic tutorial to help me create a point, but that didn't help me either.  I don't know how to change an existing layer's properties to be able to add a point.  All my layers currently are set up for polygons.  Hoping someone can help me with this.  Thanks!

On the Draw toolbar you can use the callout text box

Ok, thanks! It looks like it worked. Figured out how to edit it to my liking. Appreciate the help!

If you still would like to create a point feature class this should help Create a feature class in a database in ArcGIS for Desktop—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop
