Default Text orientation

You can rotate text by using paste special, in the edit menu. Paste it as a
picture then rotate, and copy over.

Wasn't it possible with older versions of Word to rotate or flip text so

that it was upside down? I cannot find how to rotate text in a table or text
box anymore. Shall I re-install Word XP?

In that case, however, you are not rotating (editable) text but a picture.
