Default Problems with page orientation in multi-paged document

I am working with a 32 page document and have the need to change the page
orientation as to insert a flowchart diagram. I click the page and go to
File, Page Set Up, and click on Paper, and then change the orientation.
HOWEVER, it changes the orientation for the entire document. Am I missing
something here? ...I have searched the board regarding orientation problems
and have tried many of the options with the same result. Thanks in advance
for your assistance!!

Default Problems with page orientation in multi-paged document

In order to change the orientation of one or more pages, you must insert
section breaks (page orientation is a section property). If you select text
before changing the orientation, and choose "Selected text" for "Apply to,"
Word will take care of inserting the breaks for you. Otherwise, use Insert |
Break | Section break: Next page to insert a break before and after the
material you want in landscape orientation; then make sure that "This
section" is selected for "Apply to" when you change the page setup. For
more, see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...apeSection.htm

You need to insert a Next Page Section Break (InsertBreak) before and after
the page that you want to have in landscape orientation.

Then with the selection in the page between the Section Breaks, use the Page
Setup dialog to set the orientation, making sure that the the This Section
only item is selected in the dialog.
