Everywhere I look, I read that there should be a "Round Corners" option under both the "Effect>Stylize" and "Filter>Stylize" dropdown menus. In both cases, the only "Stylize" option I'm given is "Glowing Edges".
I'm attempting to do this with a 3-pointed star (otherwise known as a triangle, but I created it using the star tool). I'm definitely selecting it, etc.
Can anyone shed some light? Thanks!!!

Nevermind... answered my own question.
Why on earth should there be two "stylize" options in the effect dropdown? Talk about confusing!

Jessica,
Illustrator - vector effects versus Photoshop - raster effects...

Adobe Illustrator SUCKS when it comes to corner rounding...
You need the vector plugin by CValley called Xtream Path...
Here's the link...watch the video called "smart rounding" which is one of the components of this plugin which will do what you're looking for:

I would not be without it...it's saved me hours of work rounding off corners without distorting the adjoining line segments.
