Did you have a look at the documentation (if you are using VB.NET
Standard or VS.NET, just set the caret on it and press the F1 key).

Sample code (I remember I already replied this code some time ago to a
question you asked):

\\\
Private Sub Form1_Paint( _
ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.PaintEventArgs _
) Handles MyBase.Paint
e.Graphics.RotateTransform(90)
e.Graphics.DrawString("Hello World!", Me.Font, Brushes.Blue, 0, 0)
End Sub
///

Thanks Herfried

But am not able to draw it inside a rectangle.
Also am not able to understand by howmuch should i rotate to get the
string vertically printed....

I tried giving the 90 but it goes outside the form and is not
visible....

You will have to use 'TranslateTransform' which set the point where the
string will be drawn.
