Page orientation

[A McGovern]

when using word XP to compile a report, can you have some pages portrait
style and some landscape?

If so how is this achieved?

 

[Margaret Aldis]

You need to insert a section break at each change of orientation, and use
File > Page Setup to set the page orientation, margins and so on of each
section as you want it.

Sections and changes of orientation can easily trip you up, so you might
