How do I transpose a table from portrait to landscape?
I copied a table from Excel into word, the table in excel is in portrait
view, so when I copy it into word it is 5 pages long, how do I change the table to landscape view so it can match my page orientation? Thank you

How do I transpose a table from portrait to landscape?
Hi,
You could insert a Section break before & after the table and re-format the section the table's in to landscape orientation. That's a whole lot easier than transposing the table. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "ScooterCrunch" wrote in message ...

Actually, it's quite easy to transpose a table in Excel.

Agreed, but I wasn't supposing anything in that regard.

Well, the OP does say he has the table in Excel to begin with.

Hi Suzanne,
Fair enough, though transposing a table in Excel doesn't achieve the same result as you get by rotating it in Word. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Suzanne S.

Well, not exactly, I suppose, but if you transpose the entire thing and
paste it into Word as a table and then rotate the text... -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "macropod" wrote in message ...

How do I transpose a table from portrait to landscape?
And just to follow up, the only reason I make a point of this is that there
are often numerous advantages to avoiding a landscape section when possible; these include not only pagination and header/footer issues (which can be worked around) but also problems with endnotes by section, which can't. -- Suzanne S.
