Word XP Text box

[Danny Sanders]

Using Word XP you can rotate the text box to whatever angle you want, but
the text does not rotate with it. How would you position text at a 30 degree
angle? The Change text direction tool is not what I want.


TIA

Hi Danny,

You need to use WordArt to rotate text to any direction other than
90°.

You can find WordArt under Insert/Picture/WordArt or on the Drawing
toolbar.
