I would think Next Page alone would take care of it: the page should get
whichever header/footer combination is appropriate. But Word can be very
ornery about putting landscape on the back of portrait, so that might be a
problem.

Thank you thank you thank you!!! I can now cease bashing my head against
the
wall - what I didn't realise also is that when you do the things below -
adding section breaks also means adding section break as odd or even pages
as
opposed to just next page...... but it's all working fine now - thank you.

I would imagine that the margins you're trying to mirror become the
wrong
ones on landscape pages. Assuming you are trying to create a gutter on
the
inside (left side of recto pages, right side of verso), then in
landscape
you need a larger margin at the top of the recto pages and bottom of
verso.
This can be done.
Check the box for "Different odd and even" if you haven't already. This
is a
per-document setting (rather than per-section like "Different first
page"),
so you'll need to create separate odd and even headers and footers for
all
the sections in the document. For the landscape sections, add space
above
the header on recto pages and below the footer on verso pages, and this
will
create your gutter.

Hi,
I am writing a large thesis and switch quite frequently between
portrait
and
landscape layout due to tables etc. I need to have my inside margins
set
at
3cm and my outside margins at 2cm but it doesn't seem to work for my
landscape orientation pages.... do I have to manually change the
margins
on
these pages? Or is there a way to set it up so that Word
automatically
realises that the next section still needs to have mirrored margins?
