One of my colleagues is experiencing a weird Word error. Here's the story:

1. My colleague opened an Excel spreadsheet sent by another colleague via
e-mail. The spreadsheet looked fine on the screen but when printed,
everything was rotated 90 deg clockwise.

2. Now in Word, whenever my colleague tries to create a new document, it is
rotated 90 deg clockwise, including the Word text insert cursor, and any text
added appears vertically down the right hand side of the screen -- it's in
the correct place, but the doc is rotated 90 deg.

3. We have reviewed every possible document layout, formatting, option,
including the default language, page layout etc etc can find no way to fix
this. We have even deleted the normal.dot template and the problem persists.

4. I am assuming because this all started with the Excel spreadsheet, that
it is some visual basic bug/problem, but I am not a programmer or VB expert.

Anyone any ideas? Thanks.
