using ACR - learn how to use the straightening tool that's avail right at the top. You get a preview of the straighten image that ACR will open up into PS.

or

once in PS - use the RULER TOOL to draw a line that will represent your straight perspective.

once you have the RULER TOOL LINE then from the pull down menu look at the rotate tool (image - rotate canvas - arbitrary ) and using the arbitrary option the degree will automatically be filled in from the Rule Tool. This degree amount is the amount of rotation that the image will need to put it in alignment of your measure line.

Now your image will be rotated and you'll probrally want to use the crop tool to even it out.

If you mean how do you ad hoc rotate an image to level it ------

Ruler tool
Draw a line next to a horizontal line in the photo (one that will become level)
Image -> Rotate Canvas -> Arbitrary

Easy way to do straightning in CS3 or CS2

Filter>distort> lens correction

Then get rid of that show grid by unchecking it

on the left side of the screen click on Draw a line to straighten the image
and if the image wasn't that crooked you can use the scale slider to crop out some of the image.

Hope this helps
