>>Is it possible to turn a caption of a column to be oriented vertically? One of the columns of the report is very narrow and it would look better if I could orient/print it vertically.

>To my knowledge, there is no way on a report. You can do one of two things (1) perform the rotation on a form, and use the Windows 10 snipping tool to capture the image and then display it as a bitmap on your report. This will work, but it will look a little pixelated compared to other fonts on most printers. Or (2) find a font that has the characters oriented 90 degrees, and then use multiple text blocks, each with one characters, and align them so they look like vertical text. This one will look much better, but it will require more setup and alignment to get it just right.

Thank you.
