I would probably use Word and put a single row, multiple column table at the  
  
bottom of the page and use the text direction function to make it vertical.  In  
  
PowerPoint I'd probably create a rectangle, type text in it and then rotate it  
  
and duplicate it multiple times.  Then I would align all of the rectangles at  
  
the bottom of the slide.

I've made a flyer to sell a car and intend to tack it to a public bulletin  
  
board at a local grocery store. Everything looks fine ... except the bottom  
  
margin in which I had to handwrite my phone number in tiny rectangles  
  
sideways every half inch. I plan to cut the border between each rectangle to  
  
make the resulting strip of paper easy to tear off since the only thing  
  
holding it in place will be the half inch at the top of the little  
  
rectangle.  
  
I'd like to make this look neater but I don't know how to put the text  
  
sideways at the bottom. Can someone please give me a thumbnail sketch of how  
  
it's done or steer me in the right direction please?

I select the object with the text in it, do Ctrl + C and then Ctrol + V about 10  
  
times rapidly.  Takes about 6 seconds.

Thank you. The rectangles worked. There isn't a way to replicate those  
  
rectangles quicker than via copy/paste, one at a time is there?
