turning horisontal tabel to Vertical
Is it possible to turn a horisontal table to vertical? I want to keep the
formatting. Changing the text direction wont do it - neither will the page setup. |

turning horisontal tabel to Vertical
Well just to be clear, need to turn the whole table 90 degrees.
I tried transpose in excel but that procedure does not solve my problem, it reverse the setup of the cells compared to the original table.

If the table occupies the whole page, or can be on a page by itself, insert
a section break before and after the table and change the page orientation to landscape for the section in which the table is located. -- Hope this helps.

turning horisontal tabel to Vertical
sorry but that wont do the trick.
I need to rotate the table and still be able to write horisontally above the table, which is vertical. Let me put it another way. I could make a screen print and save it as a picture and then turn the picture 90 degrees and paste it. Thats how is should look, and still have the option to write something above. This would do the trick if it wasnt because there is quality loos in using this procedure.

Follow up problem solved.
Follow up problem solved.
Finally I found a solution, its from a earlier thread buy Suzanne, (thank you, you saved me for many hours of work) I have pasted the answer from Suzanne below. If the table is the only thing on the page, then the usual solution is to make the page a separate section and change the page orientation to landscape (see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...apeSection.htm. If there's other text on the page, you can copy the table and paste it back as a picture (using Edit | Paste Special). You'll need to change the wrapping from In Line With Text to, say, Square in order to rotate it. -- Suzanne S.

If you go that route, make sure you save an editable version of the table in
a separate file... just in case you need to edit/change it later on. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Daniel" wrote in message ...
