How do I angle the header row in a Word table. Ron 12/23/2008 2:52:02 PM I am trying to angle the header row at say 45 degrees with the text alignment going from bottom to top for easier reading. I only need thin columns but have large headers, so this will save room and make viewing the document easier.

RE: How do I angle the header row in a Word table. Rae Drysdale 12/23/2008 4:40:16 PM You can rotate 90 degrees and have text running from top to bottom or bottom to top using the table toolbar in Word 2002/3. It's a letter A with some lines beside it. When in the cell you want to change, click and it will rotate, and click again to change direction and a third time to bring back to original layout. Does this help? -- Rae Drysdale "Ron" wrote: [Quoted Text] > I am trying to angle the header row at say 45 degrees with the text alignment > going from bottom to top for easier reading.
