I have a polyline with text in it and when the line changes direction the text rotates to be upside down on that section of line so i end up having a line with text up right and up side down. how do i fix this?

OK...it's called the REVERSE command and it is found on the Home tab under the Modify panel.  Also, the PEDIT command has a REVERSE option.

It is only segments of the line that are up side down and REVERSE does not work on this even if I explode the line.

The couple of examples I've seen of this indicates it does work.  I can't explain why it does not work in your case.

There are a couple of non-AutoDesk REVERSE-like lisp routines on the Internet that might solve your problem.  Do a search and you'll likely come across them.

Are these segments arcs?
