Hi,

Can anybody please help me out on this.

Place the textfield inside a movieclip and rotate the movieclip.[AS]this.createEmptyMovieClip(“t”, 1);  
t.createTextField(“tfNewfield”, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0);  
with (t.tfNewfield) {  
autoSize = true;  
border = true;  
embedFonts = true;  
textColor = 0x00cc00;  
text = “Here’s some text”;  
tf = new TextFormat();  
tf.font = “Verdana”;  
setTextFormat(tf);  
}  
t.\_rotation = 270;[/AS]
