I learn something new every day - I didn't even know that you could rotate a table :-) I just tested on the Ubuntu'ized 2.2 version, the OOo Official 2.2 version (installed from the RPM's but converted to .debs for install), and StarWriter 8, all correctly rotate both text and numbers. Sample file that I used was actually a .doc file from the US NIST: ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/upload/AppendC-07-HB44-Final.doc http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/owmhome.cfm http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/pubs.cfm http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/h44-07.cfm http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/upload/AppendC-07-HB44-Final.doc Can you try using the same from a fresh OOo (close & reopen OOo)? To rotate I: Format|Styles and Formating|Table (right click)|Modify|Position|Rotation/Scaling|90 degrees Not sure if that's the correct way to do it, but that's what I used. -- Ubuntu 7.04 - Feisty Kernel 2.6.20-15-generic --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
