Cell Indents Query

Default Cells - Top Indents

Is there any way to indent the contents of a cell from the top or bottom?
The help file states that you are able to achieve this using Format Cells,
Alignment, Vertical, and then selecting Top, Indent or Bottom, Indent under
Vertical Alignment.

The only indent options are under Horiztonal Alignment for Left and Right
Indents.

Excel Help is a tad ambiguous in this case.

The vertical Top and Bottom Indents become available only if you have the text
rotated 90 degrees.

Quoted below from a Dave Peterson Post.............

On the Format|Cells|Alignment tab, there's an Orientation section (top right).

click on the vertical text
t
e
x
t
(top left of that Orientation frame)

Now, you'll see the top (indent) and bottom (indent) options.

(But (indent) disappears from the horizontal alignment box dropdown list.)

End Dave post..........................
