The Write Guide suggestion is excellent, however, if you lookup Landscape in OOo help. The steps there will help you create a Page style.
If you are not using styles now it will take some learning but well worth the effort. The trick is that first you first need to create a page style with the next style set (maybe to Default) then apply it to the desired page with the Insert Manual break (with the style set to the style you just created).
