I can tell you that it isn't possible using the [CMD]ARRAY[/CMD] command. But, you can do it manually...and fairly easily (I have to do this from time to time too).

1. Find the exact center of your rectangle. This will have to be equidistant from each side so that your chairs get placed evenly.
2. [CMD]ROTATE[/CMD] the selected chairs using the center point found in #1.
3. Before dropping the chairs in their place, type "C" for Copy.

I hope this helps.
