Pretty much the same as the note I see below - I'm another newbie who has a 'solved' post and it needs an edit I can't do. Actually, I'm not sure solved is the right term - because it doesn't seem to have a solution (or at least one that I'd care to use) but I doubt there will be any better resolution to come along. Wuld "Solved" let others post followups? I suppose "Closed" wouldn't... Post title is "Right-Side-Up Text in Flipped Autoshapes?" in the forum "Excel 2007 Help". Thanks for doing this necessary task!
