Cheryl Your original question was related to rotating text on a LABEL, is that correct? Claudine is outlining the procedure for forms. There is no way to rotate db or variable text on a report or label (yet). Dawn

Bob and Cheryl, Place your object on a form. Object Property/Effects/Rotation. Slide to 90 degrees for instance. Save. See my previous note, it doesn't always "take" on the first try. So save the form and go through the steps a second time. I'm assuming you are running the latest update...
