Hi everyone,

Bob Hanlon posted a neat way of rotating the frame ticks (date markers) on a date list plot.

data = {{{2006, 10, 1}, 10}, {{2006, 10, 15}, 12}, {{2006, 10, 30}, 
    15}, {{2006, 11, 20}, 20}};

Show[DateListPlot[data] /.
  str_String :> Rotate[str, 90 Degree]]

It works like a charm as long as their are no other string annotations in the plot; otherwise, those other annotations will be rotated too.  Is there a way to rotate only the frame ticks?

Regards,

Gregory
