Turning text and photos sideways?

Hello all. I used the brocure wizard to create a tri-fold brocure. I want one of the panels that faces out to contain my return address and business logo. That means that the items in this pane (column) need to be rotated 90 dregrees. I can't figure out how to do this in one column on a document. I thought Icould do a text box and use the free rotate tool, but that does not seem to work. I also can't roate my logo

Any suggestions so I don't have to slide this through my printer twice

Thanks!

You had the right idea when you put your text in a text box. Select the
text box, then click on Format | Text Direction, and choose the text
orientation you prefer. You should be able to rotate or flip your logo
using the rotate and flip buttons on the Drawing toolbar (select the
logo, click on the rotate left/right or flip vertical/horizontal button).

Thank you for your response. That worked great for the text

My logo and photo will not rotate. I highlight them and click DRAW, then ROTATE OR FLIP, and all the options are greyed out. Any advise

Don't try to highlight the graphic (if you must, don't include the
paragraph mark at the end of the line where the graphic is). If you
just left click once on the graphic to select it, then the flip and
rotate buttons should be available. Write back and let me know how it
turns out.

Well, that still did not work. I got to reading help and it implied that I would have to open the object in MS Photo Editor, flip it, copy, and paste. That did the trick

It made it sound like the flip and rotate only work with MS Drawing Object

Again, thanks for your help. I never woulda gotten to this point if you hadn't gotten me on the right path
