I'm setting up "Tent" Cards ... place cards for a formal dinner, each side

On one half of the tent is the guest's name.
On the other, their affiliation, which will display upside down if rotation
is not possible.
Possible?
Bruce:
Remember, nothing is impossible!
Here's how ...
01. While in Report/Label Designer ... Place a "Rotated Label" object
02. Right-Click > Assign a Component ID, such as RotatedLabel
03. Right-Click > Angel ... > Rotate at : 180
04. Adjust the font, size, color accordingly.
Make sure to use any True Type Font
04. Define a Variable/Expression to capture the actual name
Example: vContactName TEXT = (ContFName&ContLName)
Calculate on [D]
05. For the Detail [D] Band, use the following code as Before Generate EEP ...
-- Before Generate EEP
PROPERTY RotatedLabel CAPTION .vContactName
RETURN
06. Preview
That's all there is to it!
If you need a sample to illustrate the use of such cool feature, let me know.
Have fun.
