Trying to create Tent cards

[lynn]

I'm trying to create Tent cards doing a mail merge. The
problem is, the test doesn't automatically rotate, so
every other tent card ends up upside down. Is there a way
around this ? Using Word 2000, SP2. Selected Avery 5305
Tent card.

Hi Lynn,

The only way you can do this in Word is to have the text
rotated by 90 and 270 degrees. Theoretically, you should be
able to do this by rotating the page to landscape, then
setting up the table that represents the tent card stock
using three columns (instead of rows) and one row.
