MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / November 2009Landscape Table on Portrait Page
Is it possible to create a landscape table on a portrait page, i.e. a page with a normal portrait header and footer? I am aware that one can change the text direction of each cell in the table to simulate a landscape table, but I would like to know if there is not an easier way.

Not exactly plain sailing, and not very elegant as it requires a fair degree of trial and error to get the header/footer in exactly the same place as the other portrait pages. Perhaps the MVP community can make a suggestion in this regard to Microsoft for future improvement? > See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/LandscapeSection.htm > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > > . Believe me, the Word MVPs have been asking for this for several versions now. Word 2007 actually does take a small step in that direction: among the available "building blocks" for headers and footers are headers and footers in the side margins. Change the text direction in one of those, and you've got a start. SignatureSuzanne S.
