Default How to Change Default Oriention to LandScape?

niladri chatterjee was telling us:
niladri chatterjee nous racontait que :

Q1)
Using MS Office Word 2003. How do I set the default Orientation to
Landscape?

File -Page Setup -Orientation does not retain the Landscape mode,
when I open the second document....


You were almost there...
Click on Default... at the bottom of the same dialogue box after setting the
Landscape orientation.
This will save your changes in the currently active template, the Normal.dot
one if you have not created a specific one.

Q2)
Can I make a Directory Specific Oriention? Say for a Directory
R:\Invoice\ only, I want all the .doc should open as "Landscape" only
but rest of the other doceuments (in other directory) will open in
Word Default "Potrait" ?


No, unless you use a macro...

But, if all the documents from that folder could be based on a specific
template, then you could set that template to Landscape, and save all those
documents in that folder.
