How can make text, say for example text in a table cell run a different
orientation, like below:-
A
P
P
L
E
I can change text direction, which places the text on its side but can Word
actually place text like above? Excel has a function where you change the
orientation like above and was wondering whether word can do the same.
Im using Word 2003, XP Home, SP2.
Cheers for any assisstance in advance. |

There are two ways to do this.
1. Set the width of the column sufficient to accommodate 1 letter and fix
the cell width. The cell will wrap the letters.
2. Insert enter after each letter.

Sorry - probably too large for what you need - I skipped right over 'table'
cell.
