Excellent solution! I didn't know about this and it is extremely useful!

I would suggest that instead of changing the Paragraph Style (which affects
the Style named Table Contents and therefore any Table that you add to your
document) you open Format, Styles and Formatting (or F11), right click on
Table Contents, choose New, name the Style to Vertical Table Contents and in
that Style change in the tab Position the Rotation to 90 degrees. 

This allows you to apply different Styles to the Text within a Table and
therefore have Vertical and Horizontal tables and even Vertical and
Horizontal text on the same Table.

Best regards,
Pedro
