Seena,

Follow these steps exactly and you will have your landscaped pages.

This Tip is from the following WordTips and is thanks to Bryan
Carbonnell for this tip.

Also, make sure your Headers/Footers for these pages is set to NOT "Same
as Previous".

     * Rotating a Page of Text


------------------------------
Rotating a Page of Text
------------------------------
Have you ever wanted to rotate the text in your Word document 90 degrees
in relation to your headers and footers? As has been discussed in other
issues of WordTips, there are a couple of ways to do this using Word's
native capabilities. (You can insert a text box and rotate the text
within that textbox, insert a table and rotate the text within a cell,
or use WordArt.) Any of these methods can be quite cumbersome and time
consuming to set up and get aligned properly.

However, if you use the fact that Microsoft has included Far East
language support in Word 2000 and above (unfortunately this tip doesn't
work in Word 97), you can rotate an entire section of text clockwise, 90
degrees to your headers and footers.

To rotate the text, follow these steps:

   1. Place a Next Page section break before and after the text you
      wish to rotate.
   2. Select at least one character between those section breaks, but
      don't select the actual section breaks. (If you don't select at
      least one character in the section you wish to rotate, the
      entire document will be rotated.)
   3. Press Alt+F11 to display the VBA Editor.
   4. Make sure the Immediate window is displayed. (It should appear
      at the bottom of the VBA Editor. If it doesn't, press Ctrl+G.)
   5. In the Immediate window, type the following and press Enter:

          Selection.Orientation = wdTextOrientationVerticalFarEast

   6. Close the VBA Editor (Alt+Q).

Now your text is rotated 90 degrees to your headers and footers. Your
page that contains the rotated text has had its layout changed to
landscape mode, as well. You can use the Page Setup dialog box to change
the page to portrait mode, and the text will still be rotated on the
page.

If you would like to download a free add-in that does the rotation for
you, you can find it at this page:
