How to rotate a table in Microsoft Word
If you already know how to create tables, you can skip this step. If you don't know, follow the detailed step-by-step instructions below:
After you have created a table, you have 3 ways to rotate the table in Word.
The easiest way to rotate a table in Word is to use the available Text Direction feature. This isn't a way to actually change the direction of the board, but it will help you flip the board easily.
1. Select the entire table by moving the cursor over it and pressing the 4-way arrow present at the top.
2. Select the Layout tab from the top menu bar.
3. Tap Text Direction from the toolbar. Word will rotate all text in the table clockwise 90 degrees. Touching Text Direction again will flip the text from 90 degrees to 180 degrees.
It's easy to see that Text Direction does not give you full authority to rotate the table angle as you like. In fact, it doesn't rotate the table, only the text inside.
To have complete control over table rotation in Word, you need solution number 2.
This method gives you the freedom to rotate the table in Word. However, you cannot edit the table.
