I have A97 I am trying to have fields go both virctical and horizontal.
(I am doing a mailing the address will be vertical the rest horizontal)
A97 does not do this out of the box..I seached this out on the boards here and found a OCX (activeX control) that will do this.I got the ocx working (it's a little quirkey, but it works).
The problem is I am sending the whole database to the vendor (Print Vendor) and unless they install this ocx they will not be able to open the report.
So...I am left with 2 choices...get help here (please please) or get with the vendor and have them convert my A97 to A2003 in which case they can take my 3 fields and make them vertical because I heard A2003 does that out of the box.
Any ideas...

On the field properties go to the other tab and change the vertical option to yes

Will the client not let you register the OCX?, it only takes a minute, drop it into the system32 folder... go to...Start > Run > ...and type in regsvr32 myfile.ocx
