rotate a table :-) I just tested on the Ubuntu'ized 2.2 version, the OOo
Official 2.2 version (installed from the RPM's but converted to .debs
for install), and StarWriter 8, all correctly rotate both text and
numbers. Sample file that I used was actually a .doc file from the US NIST:

ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/upload/AppendC-07-HB44-Final.doc

http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/owmhome.cfm
 http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/pubs.cfm
  http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/h44-07.cfm
  http://ts.nist.gov/WeightsAndMeasures/upload/AppendC-07-HB44-Final.doc

Can you try using the same from a fresh OOo (close & reopen OOo)?

To rotate I:

  Format|Styles and Formating|Table (right
click)|Modify|Position|Rotation/Scaling|90 degrees

Not sure if that's the correct way to do it, but that's what I used.


Tried your way, same result. I do like this:
Select text/table cell/whole table -> Right click -> Character ->
Position -> Rotation/scaling -> 90 degrees

What's about:
<F11>|Table Contents|Modify|...|90 degrees.
     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I tried it with Arabic
(some cells left to right and some right to left)

Only way to reproduce the problem (I tried):
direct formatting of selected cells by format|character;
at first: 90 degrees, then back to zero in the same way
(so only it seems they would have the same format, but ...)

Afterwards there's no possibility, to change the position
of the direct formatted cells by modifying with
<F11>|Table Contents|Modify ...

Solution:
at first selecting all the cells to be changed in their
position and:
Format|Default Formatting (Ctrl + Shift+ Space)

Then: <F11>|Table Contents|Modify|...|90 degrees.

Perhaps there's any other direct formatting inside,
which could be the cause of this problem.

or (same effect):
Select text/table cell/whole table -> Right click -> Edit Paragraph
Style -> Position -> Rotation/scaling -> 90 degrees
