Field Names in reports have to be straight across?

[julius1]

Can the field names (The names over the boxes) do they have to be at a 90 degree or can the some how be shown at a 45 degree? I am trying to make a column style report with the names going at a 45 degree angle to combine more titles on a page. If I am confusing I apologize.
This is current _______
I am hoping to get them to go:
/
/ Does that make sense? If so is it doable?

I am not sure if you can do a 45 degree angle but you can go vertical with the labels rather than horizontal.

Open the properties window for the text box.
Change the Vertical property to Yes.
Resize your box appropriately.

Hi

Not aware you can do this in standard Access, but see Stefan Lebans site (

http://www.lebans.com),

he has all kinds of smart ways of tricking Access into doing things that 'cannot be done' !

Thanks you guys. I'll give them both a shot.

AFAIK, vertical labels apply to Ms. A. 2K and later -only.

You can, however also replace the labels with RTFTextBoxes and apply any available formatting within these.
