It has never been possible to rotate text with an AutoShape or within any
text box except 90 degrees left or right. Perhaps you are thinking of
Publisher?

Dear All,
I'm using office 2003 and I really face 2 severe problem in the new
word:
1. I can't align text vertically at any automatic shape (circle, ...etc)
2. Also I used to rotate any text box or any automatic shape and text get
rotated with it. No the shape rotates but the text isn't rotating.

Is it a new bad edition at the 2003.??
Please help
