Displaying text vertically in a form

G

Guest

I was wondering if anyone can help me with this. I am trying to display a
label vertically in any of the section in a form: Form Header, Page Header,
Detail, Page Footer , or Page Footer.

In the form design view I click on the "Label" icon and draw a box in the
Detail Section of a form. I type something and go to the properties of the
label and change vertical to "Yes" and the text disappears. The label box is
still there but you can not read the text because it disappeared. When I
change vertical back to "No" the text reappears.

Please help. Thanks.

One way to do it is.
Size the text box to the width you want, type a letter, then holding
the shift key, hit the enter/return key.. that will put the cursor on
the next line... type your next letter ,,, repeat as needed, Using the
shift key with the return key will work in excel as well to put two or
more lines of text in a cell...

Hope that helps

1) Remove any Margin settings you may have modified.

2) Change the font to one of the basic Windows True Type fonts
