WElll you can fudge it lol
It depends what you are trying to do -
You have the shaped text options which create some interesting shapes and you can string shapes together too,
so to make a curve of text to go along say a curved border you can string together half circle and straight text and tweak it a little with the distort tools or erase Extra text that you create to make the shape to follow teh curve
Take a look at these tuts:
