Print text upside down?

[J Nachbar]

I need to create custom labels which require some text to be upside down. I
can't figure out how to do.

Can anyone help me with:
- method to rotate a text box
- fonts that are inverted (if there's a way to change direction of
printing from right to left)
- other solution?

I've done alot of Access 2000 report prep, but haven't done much custom
Access code programming or any VB programming.

Thanks in advance

Look around on www.lebans.com for Stephen's RotateText
function.

I'm not experienced enough to understand how to implement the Lebans Rotate
Text or Rotate Label, ActiveX, etc...

Any suggested resources that may help me?

Thanks

To understand how Stephen makes that work? Gee, that's a
serious mountain to climb, but if you take several courses
in advanced programming and then study the MS books on the
Windows API specifications, you might get a handle on it.
You're welcome to go for it, but for me, I don't think so!

To just use it, import the module(s?) into your program and
use it as he demonstrates in the example reports.
