The only way i know to turn text into printing vertically is to set the width of your field to 1 char., and click on 'Stretch with Overflow'. This will print from top to bottom. If you need the other way around, i would print the inversed text in the same manner. You can, for instance, enter Reverse( YourField ) instead of the field name. In the Reverse() function you could have something like this:
parameters parString
local lChar, lRetString
lRetString = ""
for lChar = len( parString ) to 1 step -1
   lRetString = lRetString+substr( parString, lChar, 1 )
endfor
return lRetString
This, in conjuction with the trick of stretch with overflow, should do it.

Why do programs stop working correctly as soon as you leave the Fox?
