I have created a Word document with 47 pages.
Some pages are Portrait and some are Landscape.
I am using 'Next Page' Section Break Types between the pages with the
different orientation.
When I insert a 'Next Page' sometimes it changes into an 'Odd Page' or 'Even
Page' without me doing anything and then messes up my page numbering. i.e. a
page goes missing.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
M.

The page is not really missing, as Word will "print" a blank page to account
for it, but you can sometimes force Word to restore the Next Page break.
With the insertion point in the section beginning with the Odd/Even Page
break, go to the Layout tab of Page Setup and change the section start type.
