I accidentally drew a trophy I am making on a plan view and I really should have drawn it on the elevation view. I was just wondering if anyone knew how to change the plane from the plan to the elevation view.

If it's just 2D linework then copy - paste.

Sorry but your question is now not as clear as it was when you said you drew it.  If it's components ... then there are other issues.  Hosted?  In-place? What?  Who built the components?

 

Please be clearer with your posts - we can't keep guessing.

Attached is what I am talking about. If you go to the plan view, you see the trophy, but then you go to the elevation it is the side of trophy, and it is like that because I was just doing a quick scetch of what it should look like. I wasn't paying attention, so when I went to scroll around it in a 3d view, it was difficult to control the camera. I was just wondering if I could take it and set it upright, without having to totally redraw it. Hope thats more clear, a little difficult to explain.

OK... Here is how you should have stated your question:

"I have created several in-place families that together make up one element all while in a floor plan view and I now want these elements rotated as if they were created in an elevation view."

 

Answer - Pick one of your families and select edit family.  Goto you west (left elevation), click rotate, move your base point and rotate the family.  Do this with each of the families that make up your trophy.  

 

Better answer.  If you had created this as a non-hosted family, you could have placed it anywhere - at any angle.
