I have a very long (100 pgs) document with text and
graphs.  Some pages are Portrait and some on Landscape.
Using word 2000, I created a footer on a portrait page.  
But when I use a section break to change to landscape, the
line and the text, of the footer, do not go the full width
of the paper.  It only goes the width of the portait size
page.  My footer looks like this:

_______________________________________________________
Name of Doc                                    Page #
Date of Doc

I tried using Format right for the Page # but it want to
make the whole footer format to the right.
What do you suggest??
I want the line and the first line of the footer to always
extend the full width of the paper.

You have to move the built-in tab stops, which are set for portrait pages.
Just drag the right tab stop to the right margin on the ruler.

That really did not work because my footer are all
the "same as previous" in order to keep the page numbering
consistent.  Is there a function to add a line the full
width of the page?  If I remember right in WordPerfect you
could do this and the line length changed to match the
page width.

thank you for answering my question.  Kim

The setting for page numbers to "continue from previous section" is
independent of having footers "same as previous".  You'll have to unlink the
footers for the landscape section to do this, because you are asking for a
different footer.  Once you move the text, *if* the line is applied as a
border it should go the full length automatically.
