Default section breaks, orientation and margins

Is this a glitch of Word 2003 and is there a Patch or some kind of "fix".
Thanks again, Mamatoots

What happens if you change the last, Landscape section to Portrait before
deleting the section break? Also, have you gone to Format | Columns and
clicked on the One button?

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.

If i copy a portrait oriented section break (next page) from

another
part
of the report to the end the pages i want changed from landscape to
portrait
are changed. But.....an extra (landscape oriented) page is added

which i
dont want.

Copying a continuous section break doesnt work either.

Can someone please help me ???

How are you creating the fourth section and at which point

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

version?
