Default Rotate Table in Booklet

Hi,

I am creating a booklet using Word 2003. I need to have a table rotated on a
page. I have the document "How to put portrait page number on a landscape
page". To insert a landscape page into a document, this instructs you to
select Landscape Orientation. This cannot be done in the booklet because it
is aleady landscape. I thought I would try to change it to portrait, but that
option is not selectable. Is there a way to rotate a table in a booklet?

I have tried to place the table in Paint, but the fonts changed drastically,
and were almost illegible. I read somewhere to create a table in Word's
picture editor. I cannot find picture editor, unless it is Insert, Picture,
New Drawing. If so, how does this work? "Help" didn't help me.

I finally had to bring it home and use one of the drawing programs I have,
but I need to be able to do this at work because when changes occur, I can't
run home every time to make the changes.

Any HELP will be much appreciated.

Thanks!

One thing you might try: Select the table, Copy, then Edit | Paste Special |
As Picture (you may have to experiment with various picture formats till you
get one that looks decent).
