Arrow

Do you use arrows for instructions?

Click A?B?C?D?E

The ? is actually a Japanese character. How do you write arrows for instructions?

Or is there a better way?

Thanks.

If you use arrows, you have to explain somewhere that an arrow indicates "followed by" or "then". To me personally, it is clear that when I see arrows used in your example, it means, I click A, then B, then C, and so on (rather than click A, B, C, ... all at once).
