[RESOLVED] [2005] Display Vertical Text in a label ?

[geroldsh]

I've searched for vertical text, but was unable to find an answer on how to display vertical text in a label; eventhough there is an indication that it can be done.
I tried to use the following sub but all I can get to display a emptyness.

Public Sub DrawYAxis()
        Dim bm As Bitmap = New Bitmap(30, 50)
        Dim g As Graphics = Graphics.FromImage(bm) 'Graphics object created from bitmap
        Dim drawFont As New Font("Arial", 8)
        Dim BlackBrush As New SolidBrush(Color.Black)
        Dim What As String = "Y Axis"
        g.DrawString(What, drawFont, BlackBrush, bm.Height, bm.Width)
        g.TranslateTransform(CSng(bm.Width / 2), CSng(bm.Height / 2))
        g.RotateTransform(90)
        YAxisLabel.Image = bm
        g.Dispose()
    End Sub

any guide to the blind will be appreciated! Thanks.
