Thats my point by the way
If I want to go to the tool how to get there I use the mouse and click view
then click outline. Therefo outline view. Sorry,I am not part of microsoft
village. I don't speak the Microsoft language. (Life is much easier if you
use Word's vocabulary...)
When I get to the outline view I expect it would give me a landscape
representation if I set the paper to landscape. I don't know how to make this
happen. I only get a portrait representation with a lot of unnecessary word
wrap. The reason I want to use landscape is not to have wordwrap. For some
reason when I am using the outline tool I get a portrait representation. I
don't want a portrait representation. I want a landscape representation.
Also when I print I expect a landscape representation without all unecessary
word wrap if I set the paper to landscape from the outline tool. On the print
out I get the paper orientation as landscape with wordwrap based on portrait.
I do not want this.
I want to print from the outline tool with with a collapsed paragraph,
landscape orientation with landscape line length, no unecessary word wrap
when I set the paperto landscape orientation. How do I get what I want?
DM,You tell me: "If you change the
paper in a document, it is changed for everything--print layout and outline
view, and for printing."
This is not happening.
print layout (Yes),
Printing (to a point I get landscape orientation with portrait based
wordwrap. I don't want this. I want landscape orientation and landscape based
word wrap)
Outline view (No-The display acts as if it is still portrait 8.5"" (I don't
want this. I want landscape (11" wide)),
I can't collapse a section in print layout. This is okay I am not printing
from print layout. I am printing from the outline tool.
I want to print from the outline tool a collapsed section and get word wrap
based on a longer line length when I set the paper to landscape orientation.
Please I help. I am trying get you to understand me.
As you can guess, I am getting frustrated, sorry.

Some notes.
What in the world do you mean by Outlook View? Life is much easier if you
use Word's vocabulary...
You can't change a view from Landscape to Portrait. You change the *paper*
from landscape to portrait (using File | Page Setup). If you change the
paper in a document, it is changed for everything--print layout and outline
view, and for printing.
Unless I have also misunderstood, you are asking for something that you
can't have--a document in portrait that will use landscape only when you are
printing from outline view. You can manually make this happen--when you go
into Outline View to print, change the paper; then change it back when you
return to print layout view--but Word won't automatically do it for you.
These are the conditions
1. Outlook View (Preferably a landscape view versus a portrait view. I don't
see how you set the landsacpe view for an outline)
2. Line of text that wraps in portrait but not in landscape mode if printed
3. A collapsed section not containing the long line
Result
A printout that
1. Shows the section collapsed
2. The line extending without wordwrap
I hope this clarifies the situation
Again, thanks for the help but I still have the problem.
