Slanted cells in top row of Word table or Excel spreadsheet? Capital Park FHC - Donna 14.07.2006 22:43:02 I want to make a single-page form that has long descriptions down the left, and names of people across the top -- but the names need to be slanted upward because there are too many, and the matrix boxes will have only a + or - in them so they can be quite small. An example would be the mileage charts on a road map, with city names at left and top but only a few numbers in the matrix boxes. Is it possible to do this?

It can't be done in Word, but you can rotate the text to the vertical. -- Suzanne S.
