changing page orientation in a document

[Alan Roufa]

I have a lengthy word document that is set-up primarily
with a "portrait/letter size" (vertical) orientation.
There are two tables contained in the document however
that I would like to run using a landscape orientation.
Does Word allow you to designate a different orientation
to an individual page of a document? Any help will be
greatly appreciated.

Hi Alan,

Yes, but you have place such a page(s) in a separate
section. (Page orientation is a section property.)
With your cursor in the section containing the landscape
pages, click File-> Page Setup-> Paper Size tab, make
sure the 'Apply to' box says "This Section," and click
the Landscape button.

Thanks so much for the prompt reply. There are two pages
that will contain a landscape chart. In order to identify
those pages as a separate section, do I need to do
anything other than putting the cursor somewhere on the
page and following the instructions below? Again...
thanks so much for your help on this. I've been trying to
figure it out all afternoon.
