Need a text box to rotate 90 degrees.

[sboyd]

I'm working on a timesheet project and I have several columns that
need to display on the form. Is there any way for me to rotate a
cell 90 degrees (for the column header)? I don't have enough room if
I can't rotate the column headings.

Thanks

You can use an expression box--but it only rotates in one direction and
there's no way to change that.

If the column headers are static (i.e., aren't based on values of
fields on the form) you can create vertical labels in your graphics
app of choice (Photoshop, etc.) and embed them in your form same as
pictures.

I'll try that but this is a common thing that people do in forms.
Looks like InfoPath would have that capability within the program.

The picture bmp worked and I just needed the one way rotation. Are
there any advantages to using an expression box versus the inserted
image?
