    command button with text aligned vertically - is this possible?

    Hi,
    In my form I would like to have vertical button (very high and quite thin). On this button I would like its caption to be aligned from bottom to up.

    Can this be done?

    Yes - you may just make the Word Wrap property of the Commandbutton True.

    Effect is not exactly what I expect.

    Caption text is just wrapped letter by letter or two letters if fit, and is wrapped from top to bottom. (this is totally not readable)

    What I would like is caption being rotate and written 90 deg from bottom to top (like text written not horizontally but vertically).

    You may also use code to set the caption:

    I do not agree - rotated text is less legible than horizontal text. If you wish rotated text I think you must use picture (you may copy rotated textbox from sheet as picture and paste into Picture property of button).
