Default section breaks, orientation and margins

I have exactly the same problem as Michel. Have ALREADY tried whatever was
offered by others in thread, Nothing works. The last Landscape page just
wont go away. Deleting the section break, automatically changes the previous
portrait section to landscpae. Attempts to change it back to portrait are
met with error message Michel mentioned. Can somebidy help??? PLease??

In such cases, however, it's easier to use Insert | File to insert the old
document into a fresh document based on the template containing the styles,
especially if the new document format includes different margins,
header/footer, etc.

How are you creating the fourth section and at which point during

that
creation process do you get the error message? What Word version?
