I am sifting through your FAQ at http://documentation.openoffice.org/faqs/word_processing/ and came across the 012.html section abou t inserting a landscape page in between two portrait ones. The explanation you provide is straightforward. However there seems to be a limitation with my version of OOo Write2.0 on W2k SP4.

I have no problem with creating the page style "Landscape" based on the "Default" or 
"Standard" page style. When in Default page style, using the menu Insert > Manual Break and 
specifying that the page break must give way to either Landscape or whatever else I can create a document with 
all the page style changes I want, going back and forth between style. Fine.
HOWEVER
When I try to do the same, introducing keyboard manual breaks [Crtl+Entr] and using the F11 page style small window, manually specifying the page styles by positionning the cursor on a given page and double clicking on the page style of my choice I cannot do the same. It just does not work.


You are correct. That does not work. You must use either the method given in the FAQ (Insert > Manual Break) or (if you prefer to use the [Ctrl+Enter] technique to start a new page) there is another way which you will probably find is more work:

Place the cursor in the first paragraph on the page after the break, right-click and choose Paragraph. On the Text Flow tab, under Breaks, select Insert, With Page Style, and choose the page style from the list.

This method is useful for inserting a manual break after the text has been written.
