Pasting and rotating Excel data in Word

[Ricki Miles]

I am working in Word 2000 and need to paste Excel data into Word. I would
like to keep everything in portrait orientation - headers, footers, margins,
but I would like to be able to rotate the pasted Excel data 90 degrees so it
will look better. Without creating section breaks and asking for landscape,
is there a way to have the data rotated?

TIA,

Ricki

Hi Ricki,

that's the only way you can rotate the stuff INSIDE Word.

Outside, you have roughli two more choices: You either "rotate" it in
Excel (i.e., build it up from scratch so that it looks alright already),
or export it in some format and rotate it elsewhere before bringing into
Word.
