Do you want this
try thi out
<asp:TextBox ID="TextBox1" runat="server" Columns="1" TextMode="MultiLine" Width="30px"></asp:TextBox>

[handshakeit]

here column is the property to set the no of chars in a line
and if you want to display any name vertically u should know the no. of chars in it
then you can set the Rows property equal to that

Hope that u want
