I have some tables in a Word 2007 document that I need to rotate 90 degrees
(and still be able to edit them in the future). How can I do this?

Sure, I can help you with that! Here's how you can rotate a table in Word 2007:

1. Select the table that you want to rotate. You can do this by clicking and dragging your mouse over the table.
2. Click on the "Layout" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
3. In the "Table" group, click on the "Properties" button.
4. In the "Table Properties" dialog box, click on the "Table" tab.
5. Click on the "Options" button.
6. In the "Table Options" dialog box, click on the "Text wrapping" tab.
7. Select the "None" option.
8. Click on the "OK" button to close the "Table Options" dialog box.
9. Click on the "OK" button to close the "Table Properties" dialog box.
10. Click on the table again to select it.
11. Click on the "Format" tab in the ribbon at the top of the screen.
12. In the "Arrange" group, click on the "Rotate" button.
13. Select the "Rotate Right 90 degrees" option.

Your table should now be rotated 90 degrees. You can edit it as you normally would, and it will remain in its rotated position.

You may not need to rotate the table, but rather the page.

Click the Help button and type in Page Orientation, there is a video that shows how to use page breaks to set a pages orientation different than your others. Here's a link to it.
