I would like to center text vertically. I know I can hit the center botton but it only center it horizontally.


thanks
 
Which version of Access??? Access 2000 has six properties that allow you to move the text in the box, but there is no such animal in Access 97. "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." Albert Einstein. [spin]

Using Access 97 I was able to get around the problem by creating an Excel sheet with the text (in my case field headers) in a vertical position. In my Access report I went to "Insert, Object, Microsoft Excel Worksheet" and placed the vertical text in the report. At this point it's pretty much a graphic but you can edit the original by double clicking on your newly placed object. You'll likely need to re-align your fields to the graphic.

Good luck.
