In M$ Word, if you have a multi-page document in portrait orientation, and you want just one page to be in landscape orientation, perhaps to display a table that is wider than a portrait page, you can do this by placing your table in a new 'section' and then formatting just that section to be landscape.

I just taught myself how to insert a section into an existing document, in OOo (ver 2.4 running under Win XP), and I think the OOo way of doing it and displaying the new section is superior to the M$ Word method ... BUT ... when I made my new section landscape (with the cursor within the section), the whole document changed to landscape,which is not what I want.

So, how do you format one page in the middle of a document as landscape, while keeping the rest of the document in portrait orientation?

Looking forward to your help, not just for me, but also for some other students I have talked into converting to OOo.

Kind regards, James.
