    Richard.Hensh> |                 |
    Richard.Hensh> | <--> Transfer   |
    Richard.Hensh> |                 |
    Richard.Hensh> -------------------

  I would have done it as something like:

\documentclass[a4paper]{article}

\usepackage{pstricks}

\newcommand{\Connector}[1]{%
\begin{pspicture}[0.3](0,-0.25)(1,0.25)
  \psline{#1}(1,0)
\end{pspicture}}

\pagestyle{empty}

\begin{document}

\begin{table}[htbp]
  \centering
  \begin{tabular}{|cc|}
    \hline
                    & \textbf{Legend} \\
    \Connector{->>} & Control         \\
    \Connector{<->} & Transfer        \\
    \hline
  \end{tabular}
  \caption{Connectors}
  \label{tab:Connectors}
\end{table}

\end{document}
