I have a powerpoint drawing linked into an OLE field in my database and have included it in a report. The powerpoint drawing was done in landscape format. When I set the report up it comes up in portrait mode and thus is much smaller than if I could rotate the embedded object field 90 degrees so that I can stretch it over the entire page.

Is it possible to do this?

I tried grabbing the powerpoint drawing and rotating it 90 degrees and then changing the page layout to portrait, but it completely screws up the drawing. If I need to change it on the powerpoint end it's doubtful that there's a convenient way to do it.

I've now INSERTED the powerpoint drawing into the database, but I'm having the same problems. Is there any way to get it to rotate to landscape?

Thanks in advance,

So I guess this is impossible?
