Hi, I am using SSRS 2008 R2 version, i read in the msdn about the Rotate270 propert for writing mode but when i tried this the property is not being displayed. Other than this all the other 3 properties are availble. Anyone please tell the reason for this.

hi rakesh, i used it in table for a column header middlename which consists of only 1 letterr.

Hi Santhosh_Pasumarthy, In this case, I suggest that you can try to add an additional textbox to the report and then type in some letters. After that, please refer to the steps in the following article to specify text orientation: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee633659.aspx If this issue persists, please post the report(.rdl file) to us by the following E-mail address. Then I will try to reproduce the scenario and assist you to resolve the problem. E-mail: sqltnsp AT microsoft.com (Please replace the AT with @, and remove additional spaces). Thanks, Bin Long

Hi Santhosh_p, Currently, only using Reporting Services 2008R2 we can set the “WritingMode” property to “Rotate270”. If we need to rotate 270 degree of the text in Reporting Services2005 and 2008, we can use custom code to achieve this. Please refer to the steps in the following thread: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/is/sqlreportingservices/thread/a6cc50f7-4bdd-415f-b838-5f6113075de5 If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks, Bin Long
