    Hello Steve,


    You can set the rotation of the cell content in degrees, using IWorksheetCellFormat ‘rotation property.

    Keep in mind cell text rotation, in degrees; 0 – 90 is up 0 – 90 degrees, 91 – 180 is down 1 – 90 degrees, and 255 is vertical.

    So you should set it to 255 for vertical content.
