Okay - Paste Special, using picture format = That works, but very small type,
and header is lost. Paste places whole spreadsheet, which is really 3 pages
long onto one page, very small type (maybe 4). Rotating works, but font size
does not change, and last 2 pages off page.

Bob was telling us:
Bob nous racontait que :

Unable to rotate text box in Word2003. Copy and Paste into Word with
data only creates a page that overflows to right, and is unreadable.
Rotate unavailable in Word, if text box and linked boxes created.
Was able to create text boxes with links, re-oriented text
[bottom-up], but pasting data removed all formatting, and spreadsheet
header data.


If you paste data from Excel, you need to use Paste Special from the Edit
menu.
Then, if you do not need a linked object, use any of the Picture format, if
you need a linked object, use the Bitmap format. Finally, make sure that the
pasted object is not inline with the text and then you will be able to
rotate it.

If all this is too much trouble, why not create a page that is 6x9 instead
of 9x6?
