As Suzanne has indicated, this is not possible in Word, but it is fairly
simple to do in Publisher, if you have that application or feel inclined to try it. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org busybee wrote: I want to rotate text 15 degrees in Word and use it as a mail merge field. Is this possible? |

We'll have to wait for JoAnn to weigh in to tell us whether rotated text can
be used in a mail merge, however. -- Suzanne S.

Okay. I have no experience with mail merge in Publisher.

I don't see how it could be. Well, maybe if catalog merge was used and the
rotated text was saved as a graphic. But that sure seems like a lot of work done for whatever reason. What "could" be done would be to start with whatever label or envelop you were going to use, insert a text box, rotate that, and then merge your data into that. I was very curious what the heck the OP was going for tho. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

I assumed he wanted to insert a rotated merge field, so that the data, when
merged, would be rotated. -- Suzanne S.

It can certainly be done in Publisher - I tested it before responding
originally - but there is no way practical way to do it in Word. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org JoAnn Paules [MVP] wrote: I don't see how it could be.
