Default flip a textbox upside down using "draw" - "flip" greyed out???

Two problems:
1. Objects formatted as "inline with text" cannot be rotated or
flipped. Right-click on the text box and choose a different text
wrapping option.
2. Text inside a text box will not flip with the text box (the text
will remain right-side-up). See
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/DrwGrp...deDownText.htm and
http://www.gmayor.com/rotate_text.htm for other approaches.
