You can create vertical text by selecting 'Text Direction' from the Format
menu. The text mut be in a table cell or in a textbox.

Using Word 2000 9.0.2720

I have made a template with a table having 3 columns.

On the end columns I want to type so that the characters are at 90o the
center column, Left facing in the left column and right facing in the
right column. (Like on the splines of a CD jewel case)

Can it be done and how?

The only thing I could find in help was to be able to type like this:

a
