[mso] Re: Rotating -90 (left) degrees in PowerPoint Table

Hi Carol,

Have you tried . . . 

Creating the table in Word, rotating the text direct by -90 degrees,
then copying to the clipboard.  

Once you get to the PowerPoint slide Edit->Paste SPECIAL, and then
choose the option that says Paste as Microsoft Word Document Object.  I
think this will solve your problem!

Subject: [mso] Rotating -90 (left) degrees in PowerPoint Table

Hello all,

I give up.  I have searched and searched and no solution.

PowerPoint Table.  Options allow you to rotate text +90 degrees (right)
.  I
want to turn it -90 degrees (left or three right turns if you prefer).
I know about text boxes and labels and shapes and etc etc.  I have also
tried copy and pasting from word and excel.  Unless you copy and paste
as a
'graphic' the text defaults back to horizontal.  I just want to be able
to
turn text to the left inside the table cell.  PowerPoint Beta 2003
doesnt
have this option either - of if it does its 'hiding' someplace.

Has anyone come up with an 'easy' way of doing this?

Thanks much.

Carol
