If you have a block in your drawing that needs to be rotated but contains text, don't worry. You can rotate the block, then use the ATTEDIT command to return the text to it's original angle. The first thing to do is start the ROTATE command, follow the command prompts, and rotate the block. When the block is in its new rotation, start the ATTEDIT command and follow the prompts. When asked, pick the text attributes, then select Angle from the list of alternatives. You can now enter the correct angle to rotate your text back to an upright position (or any other angle, for that matter).
