    You haven't worded your question very well, perhaps post an example of the problem you are having.

    Use the reshape aspect of the Selection Tool. (Move the Selection Tool closer and closer to a line until you see a little curve appear under it). When you see the little curve, grab the line and tug; the line will reshape.

    Do this to the lines on either side of the point you want to convert, tugging them outwards into gentle curves. Now when you select the point with the Subselection Tool, you'll see it has handles, has been converted.

    Very clear Zaffer, thanx.
    Just another thing, after i make the 2nd point to be smooth, this creates smoothness in the ending point also (3rd/last point), how can i turn that ending point to be an edge? (it has a one and only handle)

    Use the pen tool to hover over the point until the little x by the pen tool changes to a little arrow, then click the point with the pen tool.
